My new toy
Justin was given a gift card from his parents for his birthday. While I was still at the Conder reunion he went out and spent it on me! I couldn't believe it. I was mad at first that he didn't spend it on something he needed or wanted. Mind you this was a Sportsman's giftcard too, most men's dream. But he assured me that there was nothing he needed or wanted right now. Guess what he bought me? Yup, a Gun. He said he wanted to be able to do something he loved with me. I don't like guns, and I especially don't like killing things. But he made sure that this one was tiny and had no kick. It doesn't even hurt my ears when it goes off. A couple days after he bought it we drove up to west mountain and found a beautiful sunflower field just as the sun was setting. We brought some empty cartons to practice on. I must admit, I like the little gun. Now, I'm just waiting for my gun charm to arrive. Hey, I had to make it pretty somehow.....:)

Flying by!
It seems like there are so many things I wanted to do this summer and it's just flying past me. Where has it gone? Oh, right, I watched it pass through the office window (we've got to pay those bills I guess :S). We have had some fun though. Here are some of the few things that were actually documented
.
1. Freedom Days
2. Hiking up AF Canyon (poor Autumn ran through the burs, she was so happy she didn't care that her ears stuck together like velcro).
3. Our work-in-progress patio. It should be pretty when it's done though!
4. Our Conder family reunion last Friday/Saturday. This place was beautiful, but it was run like a prison camp. If you look in that third picture down there is actually a lady up in the tower on shore with binoculars watching our every move...creepy. I think she was in love with her whistle. But those paddleboats were sure fun :D.
I'm hoping to get a few more trips and hours outside spent before it gets cold again. But, I absolutely love Fall, so I guess it's alright that it is the next season in line. I just hope it drags on a little before winter gets here :)
