My amazing 4th of July!!

We had the most wonderful family reunion of our lives! it was so great! Let me start at the beginning....

I arrived in New Hampshire on June 30th and spent the week with Uncle Steven and Aunt Marcia. On the 4th of July we had the Sullivan Family reunion and I was able to meet my other family! It was so different to meet people that looked like me, or acted like me! We gathered at Shelly's house in Chester and spent a wonderful day smiling, laughing, and connecting with everyone!


We grilled hotdogs, chicken, and burgers out in one of the only days that were sunny the whole time I was there! There was so much food there that I still feel full!



This is Alec, and Me!!!!! it is the coolest older brother, and I love him to death! also that is my cool new sweatshirt! I was so cold when I got off the plane that I bought that shirt right in the airport! I think the Lady is still laughing at me. I was just so cold that I put the sweatshirt on the moment I bought it! right at the cash register! I was so sad to leave, I wish I could have spent more time with everyone!

The other thing highlight of my trip was that I met one of my sisters there! It was the first time I was able to meet Dawn! I just love her and think she is the best! I can't wait to go back and spend more time with them! and next time I go I am going to meet my other sister Dayle, she had to work, but I was able to meet 2 of her 3 daughters! I can't believe how wonderful my life is! I am so lucky, my only wish would have been to have Kendall there, but he had to work and so next time we will be there together!

I am truly hoping that we will be able to go for the highland games the fall! I am going to keep my fingers crossed!

Because he couldn't leave until after the first he took the rest of the week off so that we could see some of FL, and the first place we went was Sea World!

Living in the Land of the Sunburns!!

Well we arived in Florida SUnday May 3d after a 3 day car ride across the country! It was amazing watching the country change right in front of you! from desert to woodland to swamp!
Monday was beauitful and we were able to settle in, find food, and explore the neiborhood, We live about 20 yards from the pool, and right on the Bay! There is a family of dolphins that live there and I have already spend hours watching them play! They are accompanied by a pack of stingrays, and manatees! It is amazing living here, though I do already miss Utah a bit.
Tuesday I went swimming, and when I was walking back to the apartment there was a girl ahead of me, and at her car was a drunk guy who broke her door handle, becuase I was a wittness I had to wait there for the cops and the community security. This took us 2 hours! and when I finially made it back in the apartment I was sunburned with 2nd degree burns on 1/4 of my body!  for the last week I have been hiding out in the apartment with aloe, and pain killers! My burns are on my shoulders, neck, upper arms, chest, back, and face! so because I couldn't raise my hands to my head Kendall has been washing and brushing my hair. That is true love right there! when he takes care of the little things for you! 

I am much better now, and am excited because I recently started my own business! I am a Independent Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay! and I have just recruited my first 2 people! Robin Bond my best friend from our beloved Cisco classes, and Robin Payen Kendall's friends wife! I am so excited to be working with them as they start they was to the top! This has been the most exciteing job I have ever had and I am loving it!

I am leaving for the month of June to go to my families farm in Wisconsin where I will be helping them with the haying season! I am excited to see my neice again as I have missed her so much! and she has grown so big! I have seen pictures on facebook of her and I am pretty sure she is the most beautiful girl in the world! I just love her to death! I am excited to also see my family and most of all my dog Lucy whom I have miss by my side. I look forward to seeing my ward family and catching up with them all about what has been going on in my life since we last met! 

July I am going to New Hampshire for the Sullivan family reunion, this is the first time I will be able to meet my whole family from Davids side and I can't wait! I have always wondered about them and am Finally going to see and hug them! This Saturday I am going to be spending time wiht my Uncle Robert and Aunt Janace! I am about to die! this is great, as no one in my family knew anyting about David and now I will be spending time with his family!!!!!

Very Excited life!
