Been a while...

There is too much that has gone on in the past couple of weeks to adequately display, but here are a few highlights! We have had a lot of fun visiting family and friends recently!

This was at my birthday. I received lots of presents, Thanks everybody! This was a picture of myself and a friend (Mike E) playing with some army men, they are great little toys!

On the fourth of July we visited with my sister-in-law and her sons, my nephews. This is two of them and myself having a little fun on the trampoline, both of these boys do flips and all sorts of tricks on it, they are amazing! The other two were preoccupied, one had been injured pretty badly and the other was in trouble because he caused the injury. They are all great boys though!

This was also on the fourth, in their backyard doing a little swimming. Now the fourth nephew not in the picture is sitting down watching us have fun just having returned from the ER. It was nice to take a little dip. These boys have so much energy it is hard to keep up with them!

On the 12th we went to Rexburg to visit my sister and my cousin and his family. They are attending the "I" (you know, the "Y", the "I", and the "H"). We played a little guitar hero to pass the time!

This is my cousin Andrew and his wife Tiffany and another cousin, Rebecca; all Norris'. We went to a Thai restaurant and shared food, we had a blast!

The weekend of the 12th in Rexburg was action packed, we attended a Demolition Derby! Just a crazy awesome event that everyone should attend at least once a week. haha!

My sister Meredith, myself, and Jade at the demolition derby. Meredith was dressed up as part of a "white trash bash" with her roommates and other friends. I had a cowboy hat, and Jade was just happy to be there! It was very smelly and loud: cars leaking all sorts of stuff and putting off all sorts of burned gases with a muddy arena and decked out engines! Oooooooo, you know you want to go!

Fireworks from the "Pops Concert" on campus.

Jade and some friends waiting for the fireworks to start. The fireworks were supposed to start at 10pm and we started waiting and playing games at about 5:30pm just enjoying the atmosphere!

This past Saturday, Jade picked up my sister Meredith and we visited for a bit with my sister-in-law and nephews before she left. These two nephews were rockin' some nintendo game that I was terrible at!
Woohoo, we've had fun, but the summer is not over! Just this week we have planned a campout right on campus with friends and neighbors for Pioneer Day!
