summer memories

{lake powell}

thanks to uncle gary, who took most of these photos!

sam, who can be a total stinker sometimes, 

has a way of making our family feel so happy.

i couldn't resist.

ah!  so much fun.  i could live there.

{island park}

my first trip to island park! with john, lizzy, pordie, ryan, and janessa.

one of the many floats down the snake river.

i now love island park {almost} just as much as john does.

{and my girls}

janessa's eye peeking through:  priceless.

trek was fun, but i ate peanut butter.  THAT won't ever happen again.  

this summer was fun because john and i got to share our favorite places in the whole world with each-other.

mine: lake powell.

his:  island park.

thinking back on it, i don't think i have ever had a more fun and exciting summer.  

we spent 6 days in lake powell,

we spent at least 5 weekends in island park.

we got engaged.

i went to havasupai and on pioneer trek {john wasn't happy to have me gone}

all in all, i am currently in the happiest time imaginable - hands down.  

don't you just love life?
