The past few weeks...

Matt, Drew and I went on our first campout a few days ago and had a blast! We went to Girl's camp with the young women in our ward and Drew absolutely loved the girls!
Here is Matt, Chris, and Troy, some of the priesthood that came from our ward. The young women gave them a candy-gram with some flavored worms and crickets (they were real!) and they ate them!
Here is Drew with his favorite person, Kaitlyn. She is a beehive in our ward and has come to babysit Drew a few times. Drew adores her, as you can tell from his face in the picture! If he wasn't following her around, he was asking me, "Where's Kaitlyn?" or "Where my babysitter?" Drew was the cutest boy ever around the young women. They were all gushing over him and he just ate up the attention. It was nice to be reminded again how cute Drew is and how lucky I am to be his mom. Sometimes it is easy to forget when we're just doing our normal day in day out routine, but he is the sweetest, cutest little boy and I am so grateful to be his mom.
YW camp was awesome (at least for the part that I was there). The YW are so amazing. They have such strong testimonies and such positive attitudes. It was a pleasure to get to know them a little better and be uplifted by their examples. I am so proud of them and just want the very best for them. They all have very bright futures.
A few weeks ago, we went to a Pioneer family day at the This is the Place park in SLC. They had a petting zoo, bouncy houses, free popcicles, a magician and train rides.



Drew loved being the conductor! He would say, "choo-choo!" and "All aboard!"

We went to the July 4th parade in Provo with the Paiser crew. Drew loves his aunts and uncles and grandma and grandpa. Here he is with uncle Kyle.



Those fire engines are loud!!

What a fun bunch!

Drew is soooo quick to remember things. He picks up songs so quickly and here is the proof!!
