Okey-dokey

So two and half months, give or take a few days, is quite enough of a break from posting on here. I'll stop being a slacker and start doing this again. On to the recap of the summer....

It's been fairly eventful, to say the least. In June, we made a trip out to the Carolina's to have a Smith family reunion. Sam came home from his mission, and then we all went to Lake Lure to stay in a lake house for a few days. While there we white-water rafted, water skied, played in the lake, and had an awesome time. It sucked having to go home, but it was fun while it lasted. We even got a decent family picture!!
The weekend of July 11th, we were able to go down to Phoenix for a few days. The reason for the trip: my grandma was going through the temple for the first time and was going to be sealed to my Papa and my mom. Needless to say, I really wanted to be there for it. It was an amazing experience, and I'm so proud of Grammy for making the decision to get her endowment. Even though she's a stubborn old lady, we love her tons.

Other than that, we've... or at least I've had lots of fun hanging out with my sister. We've gone to a wedding, hung out with friends, and spent time with family. Tucker is going out of town this week to go to his dairy competition (cross your fingers for him, the check we would get if they win would be really nice to have), and I'm going to stay here and be lonely for a few days. Good thing I work so much or I would be really bored. Next week we get to head out to North Carolina again for Scott and Stephanie's wedding (YAY!); it'll be a fun weekend to spend with the family.

And one last update... Tucker will be graduating in December, and hopefully will be getting an internship with the church at Welfare Square in the winter. Then next summer, we'll probably be moving away from Utah, whether it's for an internship in Michigan or Missouri, or if Tucker gets accepted to NC State and can start working there. We really hope that Tucker gets accepted there so that he can start his masters there. It would be awesome to be near family.

That's it for now. I'll try to be better about this again.
