It's just hot, okay?

It's been a pretty slow and steady couple of months since the beach house.  Nothing too exciting. But sometimes that is a good thing!  A few fun things from the last couple months of Summer:

- my side of the family started a weekly Wednesday morning breakfast date. We've tried a lot of fun new places all over the valley and had some great homemade breakfasts too. 

- July 3rd I hosted Stephanie's 30th birthday party. 




- I'm cooking again. And for some reason I am making lots of soup in the heat of the Summer. Am I sad? 




- hunter and I were released from the nursery (which was very sad for us) but our new callings are pretty exciting! Hunter- Ward Executive Secretary. Me- Stake YW Presidency, 1st counselor....YIKES



- had some good times with Jenny and Andrea.  Throwing Andrea and new baby Sloane a shower, a few good lunches, and then saying farewell to them as the Stevensons moved to DC. 








- Also went to a darling shower for Afton and baby that's due any day. 



- Bethany and I hosted a painting party at our house with the most beautiful bruschetta board. 





- hunter and I got a gym membership. So that's happening. Hunter is already admiring his muscles. 

- our oven, AC and parts of Hunters car all died. 

- hunter put a pegboard up in the closet which changed my life. Well at least my accessories life. 

- we- I mean hunter and some YM in our ward- prepped our garden space and we planted pumpkins. It is still so sickly hot that the poor pumpkins die everyday but then come back to life in the morning. Poor little plants. 



- I am watching 30 Rock. And I cry laughing.  


- our watermelons are still growing. And the huge ones at Ranch Market remind me of dirty dancing. "I carried a watermelon". 








That's about all over here.
