"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Fun Fun July!!

First of all I have to apologize for never leaving comments on any one's blogs anymore!!! I read all of your blogs, I promise I do, and I love all of your cute pictures and fun things you have been doing. But I have been so busy this summer there just hasn't been time to leave comments on every one's blogs every time I look at them :) Maybe in a couple months when things slow down in my life, if they slow down :)

We are having the best summer ever!! We have done nothing but play and have tons of fun!! I love it and so do the girls. Last summer went by so fast and it seemed like we never got out or did anything fun so I was determined this summer to make it a fun one and it has been.
This baby in my belly is growing and moving around like crazy!! I love to sit there at night and feel him kick and move it is the best feeling ever and I sure miss it when they are out of my belly. I am feeling great and I have lots of energy and life is good right now!!

Here are some fun things we have been up to lately.......

We have spent many days outside in the yard swimming!! We have a little neighbor boy Jaden that the girls just love to play with and he came over one day and they had so much fun together. We love to have these hot summer days that we spend outside swimming!!!





Every year, the last week in July we have a big Fullmer Family Reunion!!! We all pull our trailers to my Grandparents land and we stay for the whole week. Josh has been working very long hours and he wasn't going to be able to come up until Saturday, so I had him pull our trailer up on Tuesday so I could spend more time. It was a good thing, I needed the break away from home and the girls had a lot fun. My cousin Monika helped me so much with the girls, thank you Monika, Love ya!!


My Uncle Bill took the girls fishing and they loved it!! They walked so much that Maddy asked Uncle Bill to chop off her legs and pick her up and carry her!! Bill thought that was pretty funny!





We had an awesome firework show!!! And Kenna was so funny she covered her ears the whole time!!



The girls lived on the trampoline!!!




Lots of riding motorbikes and 4 wheelers!! So much fun, we made lots of memories that will last forever and it was fun for the girls.






Do your kids love the ice cream man??? O boy mine sure do. Every time they hear the music they wait in the driveway......it is so fun for them. I let them pick out their own ice cream, it takes them a long time and then they come running back to the house with the biggest smiles on their faces.






And then how can I forget Ross Park............we love Ross Park and we play there for hours.



What a fun summer we have had!!!!!!!!!!!

Camping at Sheep Creek

We had another fun weekend camping!! Josh had a few days off work so we decided to get away. It was a perfect weekend with perfect weather!! We had a blast riding 4-wheelers, fishing, cooking dutch oven (yummy) and just being together. I love the outdoors, it is so peaceful and beautiful, I am so glad that we can pack up at the last minute and leave for a few days and spend time together, we make the best memories that way. Here are some fun pictures of our camping trip!!

I like to look for rainbows

I have always loved the children's primary song "I Like to Look For Rainbows" and on July 15, it became more aware to me of why that song has always meant so much to me.

Have you ever wanted something so bad, but knew that there was nothing within your power that could ever make that happen? Have you ever prayed so hard for something that you knew could be there but because you couldn't see it, it felt like it could never be. Have you ever enjoyed the smallest, simple things in life because they meant something huge to you? Have you ever taken those tiny baby steps that felt like you were getting no where? Have you ever had the Faith in someone that honestly could move a mountain? I know you all probably have!!

This has been a difficult year for us, so difficult that is has actually been turned into something so good. You know the saying that says you have to go through hard things to see the good things? Well that is pretty much what we have been through. We have a long road to go but we are moving forward and hopefully for good.

Don't ever forget how special this song is!! Don't ever forget the words. Don't even forget it when you have grown up and you don't sing it on Sundays in Primary. It is so simple and yet it means so much in my life.

I like to look for rainbows whenever there is rain, and ponder on the beauty of an earth made clean again. I want my life to be as clean as earth right after rain, I want to be the best I can and live with God again.

I know when I am baptized my wrongs are washed away and I can be forgiven and improve myself each day. I want my life to be as clean as earth right after rain, I want to be the best I can and live with god again.
These girls are so proud of their Daddy and love him so much!!
We wore white for your special day Daddy, and we will again for many more special days to come....we don't ever want you to forget how beautiful we looked in white and how much this special day means to us.
We Love you ♥♥♥
