1. Gramma's Tree
There once was a tree...it was a simple tree, but a beautiful tree. It provided shade and privacy for a beloved corner of a very special yard. A yard which over the years has hosted too many birthday parties to count, family BBQs, a place to relax when loved ones came to visit. The list could go on and on. The most important part of that space, at least to me, is the sanctuary it has been for Gramma. A place for her to find some solace after Papa left us.
Early this spring, during a storm, the plum tree came down. It was the last substantial tree in the yard. We were very lucky there wasn't any real damage.
Jess's mom was kind enough to give us a tree to plant in its place! Jess and I came and dug the hole and got it planted! We're still waiting to see if it's going to thrive! We sure hope so!

2. 4th of July fun!
I spent this 4th with Jess and her family! The whole group headed to a small festival like thing at the local strip mall! They had a bunch of activities for kids and the Safari Sam's was open as well. While the older kids were inside the play structure Jess, Shaun, Neven and I were playing arcade games. We decided to see if we could beat the Jumpin' Jackpot game! I've played many times, but have never come close to winning! Until this time!

4. An enchanted day!
Cheryl invited me along to help wrangle the kiddos! What a FUN day!

| Sure, I'll ride in your place! |
5. A concert at Sleep Country... I mean Northwest... whatever it's called!
Matt Nathanson...The Fray...Train. Though we did most of out silliness during the boring part of the show... or we were just listening to a recording? It was a great night with my two best friends! I couldn't ask for two better friends!
6. Rub Some Dirt In It?
Though I couldn't seem to remember what our team name was, I had an absolute blast at Dirty Dash! No, I didn't choose the best shoes, but I didn't let them get too much in my way! I am so thankful to have a best friend who not only pushes me, but doesn't leave me in the dust when my current best is far below hers!

| Ok, so I might have pulled her down with me! |
7. Move out...
The final weekend of July had me moving out of my apartment! I'm so thankful to those who helped me and my bestie who reminded me that it was my first place all on my own and that needed to be documented by snapping a selfie!
