This is gonna be quick.
I, along with much of the run-of-the-mill-everyday-mom-type bloggers, am having a hard time keeping on top of posting (does anyone blog anymore??) AND keeping up with the latest and greatest social media apps. Marco Polo is my newest attempt at keeping up with the times, and the jury is still out on whether I think it's worth another icon on my phone and space in my brain. It's been fun for the few days I've used it... mainly to check in with the fam. Mar suggested it because she's not allowed to have Snapchat, but I'm not so sure Marco Polo is much better... keeping on top of my teen's screentime is killing me. I'm ready to return to the pre-smartphone era.
On to my pictorial, because we all know I'm not gonna have anything to say about any of it hahaha.
July 18-20
YW High Adventure Activity
We have some awesome YW leaders. Enough said.
Boating and water activities at Chatfield Reservoir on Wednesday.
Overnight at a condo in Granby, CO that evening.
Overnight hike to Crater Lake Thursday to Friday.
Bill was one of the lucky dads asked to accompany the group.
Mar invited Cass to come with her.
They returned safe and sound, but not without some blisters. I was told it was the hardest hike any of the girls had done, but that they handled the difficulty with grit and positive attitudes. You go, girls.

Chey's Bridal Shower + a Baptism
Cheyenne was able to make a quick trip to CO for a shower. I was in charge of invites and food, and I didn't even snap a picture of the waffle bar set-up. Darn it.
Chey's sister Aubree flew in from San Diego to help her celebrate... and it was even her Birthday. Happy Birthday, Aubree!
Mar's friend Addy had stayed overnight at our house, and she graciously came and helped Mar make waffles that morning.
We are getting so excited for Cheyenne and her guy Richard... the wedding is coming up fast!
After the shower Mar and Addy headed to Fort Collins for Addy's Senior pictures, and Tay and Nae invited Bill and me to Crave.
And I wonder why I can't lose a few pounds haha. Waffles and a Crave burger aren't helping.
That evening we attended the baptism of Bri.
Remember when we had the Elders and our friends, the Gouberts, over for Easter dinner?
Reminder HERE.
Well, Bri, the non-member friend who came with the Gouberts, who had accepted a Book of Mormon that evening, GOT BAPTIZED.
How awesome is that?
Donuts were served for refreshments (we used the cute donut holders from Lo's reception).
I may have had one (or two).
I know, I know. Saying I can't lose weight is definitely fake news.
I keep thinking "next week."
Next week we are back to the rigors of a school schedule and SEMINARY. Unfortunately, those anxiety-producing factors tend to make me want to eat, not exercise.
I'm hoping to get on a nice, regular eating/exercising/studying schedule... soon.
