our BIG summer vacation!

 have i mentioned i have the BEST husband?
well.

let me give a short explanation...

   being away from family for 5 years has had it's ups and downs

  and it just so happened that being out here
a lot of people are from the west and go see their families during the summers
they leave for like a month at a time

so when my mom came in june
i was crying to her about the lack of friends
that comes when you first move to a new area
and she said, why don't you have dusty take you home
and you can stay for a while
well, i was all over that

and dusty was too
so he took us out to utah, 22 hours!

stayed a couple nights and then drove back
to work for 5+ weeks while we hung out with family

what a great husband.
brack has a cute dimple under his eye when he smiles like his daddy!

love the outfit to ride horses 

 gray is getting to know his grandpa marlin!
so cute!

love this cute picture!


my sister and i didn't go out together very much

 and you can see why... 

 i have people stare at me all the time, and i only have 3 kids!
