blogging clearly isn't a priority right now for me. clearly. but i'll give it an update anyway. july started with the celebration of our nation--we celebrated in jerome. a morning run, breakfast, games, hike, nap, fireworks and family.
next up, the celebration of my birth. it was such a sweet day with the people i love the most. and dan successfully surprised me with an awesome gift that i did not anticipate. (i ALWAYS can guess what he has up his sleeve no matter how hard he tries to fool me.....but this year i was fooled....and it was fun!)
then it was our little nova's birthday. 3! how did that happen?!?!?! she had fun and kept saying it was the best day ever. she made her own low-protein cake, went swimming with her best friend sam and we had a barb-q.
girls camp! i have crappy pictures, but it was SO much fun. i love these girls like crazy and it was the best week. here is the hike with my 4 years. we zip-lined, hiked, ate, sang, did NOT sleep and danced. AND, we created a flash mob choreographed by yours truly. 300 people participated and it was so awesome!
then, we had a family camp out. nova was OVER. THE. MOON. the tent was "so beautiful" and "the best tent ever" and we were the "best mom and dad" and "i can't wait to go to bed".....but didn't......sweet, sweet camping.
and then nova wanted to take some pics of me and dan
and then it just got crazy...
like i said......over. the. moon.
and finally, our anniversary. 6 years.
we even got a profesh photographer:
and then, we celebrated in family fashion. we figured 6 years ago we started a family for eternity and we wanted to hang out with that family, even if we are still small in numbers.
and FINALLY, FINALLY, the big news.....dan got a new job in CALIFORNIA. he starts september 19th. we are excited and nervous, but definitely feel we are going where we are supposed to. nova swam in our stream to celebrate....ok, it was just really really hot today.....but it seemed fitting.....sorta. and if any of you have relatives in the san fransicso bay area, who have a sweet rental they want to rent to a small family......let us know! :)

So excited for you guys! It will definitely be an adventure for you. We will miss you but are so happy that you finally get a change. Plus, it will just be a fun place to come and visit you!
Wow that is exciting for you guys. I hope all goes well. Good luck with everything and if i am ever down that way i will have to get in touch with you. Next time you make a trip to Idaho we should meet up I haven't seen you forever.
Awesome, awesome pictures and awesome, awesome news. I may have to figure out the whole solo flying thing. Might even have to set up a lemonade stand so we can add to the "visit Idaho" fund. We love you!!
You guys are the cutest family. Seriously.
