My parents are the best. And my dad mentioned to me in a comment on my last post that while I sarcastically said that I didn't mention Brad's name enough in the post, my dad thought that I did not mention his name enough in there either :)

So I thought I would just post a little something about my parents, and specifically my dad and say his name a bunch of times as well. Not really because he requested me to do so, but because I want to.

I think my dad is the greatest guy around. It is so fun being his daughter. My dad has done such an amazing job of making my mom and my sisters' lives great. My dad has developed so much patience over the years. He is also the hardest worker I have ever met, which I respect a lot. Its funny because while he has been watching me grow up, I have been watching him as well, as he has navigated life and improved himself. He has been such a good example to me. I think that his opinion matters to me more than he knows and more than even I realize. That is how much I look up to him. He is also lots of fun, and likes to have fun (see pictures below).



Don't these two look like the coolest parents ever? I bet you wish they were yours! :) Also, sometimes I wish I still lived at home. I miss my dad.

P.s. don't worry mom, I will write a post about how much I love and miss you as well sometime soon :) You are equally as awesome!

7 Peaks

I feel like my blog is becoming an advertisement for fun date ideas for LDS Young Single Adult people living in Salt Lake/Provo. Ugh.But I have a new camera and what else would I take pictures of but the things that Brad and I do together?
Also, if it seems like I only hang out with Brad that is probably because I only hang out with Brad. How many times can I say Brad in one post I wonder? Brad, brad, brad. Oh my.

The weekend started out with tennis. While Brad still kicked my trash it was much closer this time. I just get all hyped up because the score is so close, and then I choke. It is a mental thing and not a skill thing I swear! Btw, I have been informed that I am terrible at trash-talking. Apparently you are not supposed to laugh while trying to intimidate someone.



We went to Eclipse after that because Brad's mom wanted to go... Brad actually was getting quite upset because he thinks Bella is completely stupid for picking Edward over Jacob. I quite agree. I won't share my other multitude of opinions on the series - it is not worth my time typing.

7 Peaks was our Saturday activity, and I went down the second biggest slide (see orange slide in the photo below. I did the blue one on the other side that is almost identical). I didn't open my eyes once during the entire thing, I was so scared! But despite my protests, I am glad that I was pretty much forced into it :)




As Brad was so sweet to model for me as seen below, we used some gross but effective spray sunscreen so none of us got burned... I am pretty sure that I could use this picture for blackmail if I wanted to someday...


We ate an entire $5 pizza on the way home, and then got these amazing fresh strawberry shakes. Brad got the shake all over his face.


Another good weekend almost over. I am beginning to live for them even though I like my job... I love my summer days in the sun!
