Eldredge Reunion

Last Saturday my cousins put together a Eldredge reunion. It was so fun to get together with all my extended family. We used to get together all of the time but as we have gotten older our traditions have faded. So a new tradition has started and we will have reunions each year to bring us together. The activities included the boys playing a little basketball while the girls talked and the kids played with various toys in the yard. Brandon was not aware there would be basketball so he didn't wear the right shows. He played for a little bit in his flip flops but eventually ended up just taking them off and playing in his bare feet. I of course didn't get a picture of him running around bare foot. Dang it. Anyway he is paying for it now. He has huge blood blisters on the bottom of his feet. I hope it was worth it...
Look at Brandon in the back, looking down at his feet all sad....

And here we are. Wendy, me, Aimei and Carlee. We had a great time talking and actually it was Aimee that inspired me to do all of my posts. She ripped me apart for my blogging skills so I decided to step it up a notch...Thanks Aimei!


The Ranch

A handful of us, including Brandon, me, Adam, Kenzie and Bill (Brandon's Dad) went to Kamas last Friday night. Brandon's Aunt and Uncle own a ranch up there and Brandon wanted to show me the place and have some outdoorsy experiences. So here we are shooting guns with Kenzie and Adam. Then we ventured out on the four wheelers. I was pretty excited for the four wheeling, it has been years since I have gone! Bill is amazing at the grill and he cooked us up some tasty bratz for dinner. We had a great time!
Very steady...

Adam and Kenzie.. looking good as always
We do this all the time....
After we took the picture above, Brandon realized that there was a large amount of dirt on my face.... and some of it happen to line up with my eyebrows, creating a uni brow. I think it looks pretty good. :)

Rollerblading

Last Sunday evening Brandon and I decided to bust out the rollerblades and head to the park. It has been years since I have been out on these wheels. I was a little nervous about it cause I haven't mastered how to stop yet. However, Brandon is a rock star on the blades. He helped me get around and we had a great time.
This is quite the action shot of me... You can tell by this shot that he is amazing...


Ben and Debs Wedding

Ben and Debs got married on Aug. 16th. We are so happy for them! This worked out really well for Brandon and I cause Ben and Brandon have been friends for the last 3 years and Debs and I became great friends during our internship in Hawaii. They were able to meet during the time Brandon and I dated. We love them both and are going to miss them... as they start their new lives together in Arizona.
How awkward is this pose?!... love you Debs!



Mission Reunion!

Becky has been posting things all night so I thought that I would help her out on this one. After the long day at Raging Waters we headed to Orem for a mission reunion. My second Mission President returned home last month...President and Sister Trask. It was great to see their smiling faces again and hear about their wonderful accomplishments. While at the reunion we also ran into some old friends...what do you think of their suits? Made in the Philippines.. :)

Raging Waters!!!

Brandon and I took a day off of work and headed out to Raging Waters to enjoy our last days of summer. I have never been there before so it was so fun to experience it with Brandon. We brought a cooler full of food and drinks and hung out there all day. I supported Brandon as he went on some of the big scary rides and I joined him on some of the more simple rides. :) It was a fun day. I am going to miss summer....



Shunae's Baby Shower

Shunae is having a baby! We threw her a shower before she ran off to California again. :) It was so fun to get everyone together. Thanks to all those that came. And thank you Jenn and Crystal for your help in getting this all together. It was a success. I am so excited for you Shuane!
