Summer has come and gone!

School starts in one week!  Where did the summer go?  Well...

We had a lot of activities going on this summer.  Dave and the kids were quite the travelers.  I was able to join them on just a couple activities.  Here's a quick rundown:
  • The Meteor Crater
  • Petrified Forest
  • North Rim of the Grand Canyon
  • Glen Canyon Dam
  • Four Corners
  • Anderson Family Reunion - Salt Lake City, Utah
  • Grandma and Grandpa Ankeney's House - Hereford, Texas
  • Woodbadge Training - Sid Richardson Camp
  • U.S.S. Texas - Houston, Texas
  • Uncle Dave and Aunt Cheri's House - Cedar Park, Texas
I enjoyed traveling and seeing the country.  The kids definitely got to see a lot.  They had a blast!

My favorite part of the summer was time we spent visiting family and friends in the Salt Lake Valley.  I am so blessed to have family I love and look forward to spending time with.  Whether we were playing capture the flag in the park, watching fireworks, hiking to the waterfalls, playing cards, or midnight runs to Chili's, it doesn't matter - we love our time together.  The true meaning of life is defined by our relationships with each other and the Lord.  When we are able to get together, I am reminded that it's just being together that matters most.

I don't want to bore you with long updates, but I thought I would share some pictures from our adventures:
