We’ve had a really fun summer so far. In June, we went to the zoo and also attended Strawberry Days, the Pleasant Grove summer festival. The highlight of Strawberry Days was definitely the rodeo–a first for both me and Amelie. Here’s a picture of Amelie and Bryce at the city’s pioneer museum. Please excuse the hat–we couldn’t find one that fit her that morning. She actually got pretty attached to this hat from Bryce’s mission days.

One of Amelie’s favorite things to do right now is try on grown-up shoes. Dress up, here we come!

And on July 4th, we had a great time camping (just a day trip) with the Haymonds. Amelie loved going out fishing in their raft on the lake. And, just in case you were wondering, I’m getting over my fear of fish. I think being stuck in the confined space of the raft with the fish forced me to face my phobia 😉 Here’s a picture of Amelie after a morning of fishing enjoying an apple–another one of her favorite things. This was her first whole apple and she pretty much devoured it.

We have plans to go camping again at the end of this month and are looking forward to it. So far, it’s been a great summer!
