My Grandma Wismer always had a grab bag for us grandkids when we came to visit. It was a bag full of presents and we always got to stick our hand in the bag and pick out a toy. It was so exciting and we all loved it. She would take us girls outside to have tea partys and we always got to help her in her garden. She had an organ in her house that we loved to play with as well. My grandpa Wismer always had a pocket full of coins he would give to us kids when we came to visit. I have a picture of them standing together in front of the Portland Temple and they look so happy and in love. I'm so happy that they are together again. My Grandpa passed away a few years ago and my Grandma passed away last Saturday. She had a stroke 7 years ago and has been struggling ever since. My parents have been taking care of her for 7 years and they did such an amazing job. It was kind of amazing she passed away memorial day weekend. Oh my goodness I can't even imagine the reunions she must be having with all her family. I know she is so happy. One of Weston's high school friends came into town with his family over the weekend and we had so much fun with them. They have the most adorable little girl and she was so much fun to be around. She kept calling Weston the boy. Hilarious. Thanks for coming Arnells
Bear Lake High School Grads 1999. Jeremy had to tell Weston not to flex for the picture. He knows Weston all too well. I also learned from Jeremy that Weston dated a russian exchange student in high school for a couple of weeks. hmmm interesting. It was great to learn all sorts of things about Weston this weekend.

new look
I always feel like I should be more productive during Haylee's nap. Today was the day I was going to start that new goal. So I sat down just to blog for a few minutes. Just 5 minutes I told myself. Then I'll go clean my bathrooms, make my grocery list, make my bed, plan my lesson for yw, read my scriptures, do the dishes. I had such great ideas. Then I had a better idea, I would quickly just change the background to my blog. Oh my goodness there are so many websites that have such cute free backgrounds now. An hour and half later I decided to go with plain white. So boring. Haylee woke up and we went to the park. So you can all witness my (non)productivty today by looking at my stark white blog.

camping
This weekend Weston and I went camping. My style of camping. This is about as outdoorsy as I get. Having a fire on my back porch and making smores. It was really a lot of fun! So everyone come on over with your roasting sticks and make smores with us. 
We also bought a grill the same day. The grill is Weston's father's day present so that he could make me and my fam dinner on Mother's day! Yummm, the burgers were so tasty.

Boise trip
We went to boise for my nephew's baptism and of course I did not get one picture of the big event but it was a great day for spencer and we are so excited for him. We started out our trip hanging out with Weston's family at the Boise zoo and children't museum.
This is me in some sort of swing thing at the children't museum.
Haylee getting her fill of grocery shopping.
Weston's parents gave Haylee a new bike when they visited. I love the purple and pink!
