This summer...

...was our first summer in Utah.  We did so many things that I thought I would make a list of them, so I wouldn't forget them.

We saw a play at Sundance.
We went to Disneyland and saw Anne and Dennyse.
We went with Evie, Julie, and Mike to the Payson Pool.
We explored Mt. Nebo with Rosalind and Don Soucy.  They were our first visitors from  CA.
We ate at our first Brazilian restaurant.  Tucano's.  I want to go back.
We drove up to Squaw Peak.  What an amazing view of Utah Lake and the valley surrounding it.
We saw Xanadu at Payson Community Theater.
We hosted a birthday party for my dad.  Most of my family came.  It was fun.
We spent an extra day in Vegas.  We just hung out and Mike got to meet Judy.
We went to the Cheesecake Factory in Salt Lake City and walked around City Creek Center.
My brother David and his family came out.   We spent a lot of time with him and I went rafting on the Provo River with him.
My brother Ron and Amy came out and they stayed with us.  It was really nice to have them here.  Hopefully they'll be back soon.
We watched the Payson Onion Days Parade.
We went to the Payson Fair.  Mike and I kissed at the top of the Ferris Wheel as the moon rose over the mountains
Mike bought me a pretty pink shirt at the fair.
We went to a couple of concerts in the park on Sunday evenings.
We hiked up Bennie Creek trail.  Beautiful.  Next summer I want to make it further.
We started raising chickens.
We got tons done around the house.  Trees cut, sprinkler system installed, aviary fixed for the chickens, garden planted, tomatoes harvested, lots of odds and ends done around the house.  Good things.
Mike got a job at Intermountain Health.

Yes, it was a busy, fun filled, work filled summer.  I can't wait for next year.  For now, I'm going to enjoy fall.  The colors, the smells, and the cooler weather.
