Busy busy busy days of June

June was weird this year.  Full and filled with a lot of good, but weird.  Luke started his new job in Price, but we hadn't packed up our house yet or prepared to move.  Plus, we had made plans before getting the job offer (I had Norwex parties and obligations)  we had already signed up for swimming lessons and so much more..Also, since it was so sudden, we all needed a little more time to adjust.   But, Luke's job started so he had to be in Price. He moved down to my parent's house where we would all stay during the home sell.  The girls and I stayed mostly in Santaquin to finish tie things up. It was hard and we hated being apart but we were so very busy that it went quite quickly.    

We managed some fun though :) 

 Not everything was "fun" though. I hate packing and moving.  Ohhh how I hate it. Little by little though our belongings got loaded into the trailer.

 In happy news, Luke's youngest sister, Courtney had her first baby:  Belinda "Jayde" Hinckley.  We stole away for a quick visit to Grantsville to meet the newest member of the Peacock family.  She was so sweet and teeny.

One particular Saturday we had a special visitor in our garage.  The Stupid cat just walked literally next to it and didn't even do anything about it.  Glad it was a day Luke was home... cause yeah. I couldn't have chased it off like he did.  Ewwww ewww ewwww. 

We made a visit to Castle Dale one day.  Baby Jayde was there and Linaya was enamored.  

One of my favorite Disney movies is Emporers New Groove.  One line in the show is in a diner where someone requests a steak cut in the shape of a trout.  I'd dare say this is the closest thing I have ever seen to a steak cut in the shape of a fish.  It was SUPER tasty (so much more than an actual trout!) 

One thing is for sure to be missed about Santaquin-- those sunsets.  Wow. 

We had my sisters girls visit for a few days.  We made our trip to on of our favorite little hikes: The Grotto

While in Price one weekend we attended the RODEOOOOOOOOOOO! Yeeha! 

 When the neighbor girls decides to do your 2 year old's makeup...... Watch out.

Another thing to miss in Santaquin will be the orchards.  One day I saw a sign inviting anyone interested to come pick your own cherries.  It was cool picking our own fruit and ohhhh they were delicious! We ate cherry EVERYTHING for days. 

Swimming lessons at the Francom pool (a private pool that did provides lessons right in Santaquin)

A Haitian family Luke knew on his mission came to Utah to visit (some of them live here now) When Mama Julien came to see her new granddaughter, we were able to meet up for a Haitian style dinner at the park in SLC.  We loved meeting them and eating yummy Haitian food.

We bought Daddy a new suitcase for Father's day.  With his new job he travels a lot and Tianna helped us decide the right size.
