The last of summer....

It's hard to believe that summer fun is over and it's back to school. I was able to do a lot this summer though, especially this last month. It started out with a trip back home to Wisconsin for my friend Julie's Wedding. She got married in Nauvoo and it was absolutely beautiful! I am so proud of her. It was a wonderful thing to see and it set a great example for the rest of us.
















Here is a picture of the temple in Nauvoo. I think it will always hold a special place in my heart. I remember visiting Nauvoo when I was younger and all you could see were pieces of the foundation and a model of what the temple looked like. The early saints sacrificed so much to establish Nauvoo, I am glad that it has been restored so well. It gives us the opportunity to not only enjoy but also understand how hard it would have been to leave behind or see destroyed.

























Also, while I was home I had the opportunity to visit my great grandma Geneva. She is 87 and has alzheimers disease. It's kind of hard going to visit her because she doesn't really remember me but she does love to have company so it's worth it. It makes me sad though because ten years ago she was living on her own and I would go visit her so we could pick raspberries from her garden.

Spending some quality time with the little brother.

The last half of the month I got to spend time with my favorite person. Tim and I had a lot of fun on our company cat trip. He can always make me laugh:)

After the company trip, Tim and I went back up to Idaho and spent some time in Twin Falls and Pocatello. Doesn't he make that motorcycle look good?

This is the car we found parked out side of Chili's. Tim got pretty excited :)

Now it's time to go back to school... I am looking forward to the new semester. It will be busy and a little lonely...but it should be a good one.
