SEE YA JUNE

JUNE WAS THE LONGEST MONTH EVERRRRRRR.

Garrett and I did not see each other at all during the month of June and it was the worst month ever. Okay, well we survived but it wasn't very fun. Once I got back from DC my mom showed up the next day! It was a life saver. The next day was my birthday so it was fun to have her! 

She stayed at my house for the whole week! For my birthday we went to the Hickory for lunch and shopped a little bit in between my classes. Each day my mom watched Graham for Elle and David while she worked so he could get homework done. For my birthday dinner I wanted gluten free pizza from Papa Murphy's. It was delicious! Nothing better than pepperoni and pineapple. Then we had some salad with egg because I had been craving it! Later that night I had my cousins Molly, Morgan, and Carson and my old roommate Emily over for strawberry pie! Elle came a little bit later too! My mom got me new sandals, the cutest sweater, and an adorable top! And Elle got me a new shirt and belt as well! I love them all!

Throughout the week with my mom here we were able to all spend some time together which was really fun. We went out to lunch more than once, got Karie Annes, and chatted lots. My mom and I took Graham on a walk almost everyday (to keep him asleep) for about and hour and half and I wish she would come back so I could always have a walking partner. She saved me by coming and staying with me and I am so grateful that she did. 

Thanks for taking my tests for me and listening to Garrett and I facetime and read 

Junie B. Jones! Love you!

She left on Friday and then I headed to Billings the next Friday because Garrett's brother Colby was going through the temple! I was so glad that I was able to be there! I got into town Friday night and met my parents at Red Robin for dinner and then went to both Sam's Club and Costco with my momma. 

Then Saturday morning we got up and went for a walk before I headed to the temple. It was a great day at the temple and then I got lunch with the Irene's! It was good to catch up but we were missing Garrett. That night they all came out to my parents house for dinner! It was really fun to have all of my family in one place again. 

While I was in Billings, Garrett and his team headed up to New York for the weekend. They went to a Yankee's vs. Angels game and hit up Times Square, Central Park, and church that is actually below the temple. 

These are Garrett's roommates in Central Park! (Johnny, Garth, Bryan, and Justin)

I have been going on lots of walks with Elle and Graham and it has been so fun! He loves to be outside!

I have also been eating a lot of treats...

*Snoasis*

 And lots of Karie Anne's, this was a weekly special and I went 3 times... Oops...

Jon and Katrina came up the second weekend in June because Katrina and I had signed up to volunteer at the Teton Dam Marathon and Jon was signed up to run the 1/2 marathon. It was so fun to have them here! Katrina and I went on a tandem bike ride both nights which was so fun!

The day of the race we had to be there at 6:30 and we didn't get done until 11:30. Our job was to hand waters to everyone who crossed the finish line! It was actually really cool to see all of those people who were finishing the races. Then we ate some Costa Vida and then we all crashed and took naps because we were so tired! Then Katrina and I shopped and then went for another tandem bike ride. We are secretly hoping they move back ASAP.

This is what our nights look like most of the time.. Garrett making me laugh on facetime. 

Or Garrett falling asleep on me.

Just kidding that doesn't happen too often! He has been the best even from all the way across the country. He reads children's books with me, helps me study, and prays with me. Although we are getting decent at this game, I want to stop playing ASAP and never start again. 

He also sends me flowers just because :) 

I have had so much fun babysitting Graham lately because as he gets older he only gets more fun! He has been smiley and he LOVES being outside! We love to go on walks while he checks everything out!

Then this last week I was able to see my mom, Payton, and Sophie two different times. On their way from Polson to Utah they stopped on Wednesday night and stayed the night with me and then got up early Thursday morning to take off. They went and talked to some golf coaches down there. We went to Pizza Pie Cafe and had a sleepover which I enjoyed! 

Then on Friday Carson and I headed to the Sandbar to get our tans on and to cool off from all of this heat that we are having here! Then we had a sleepover! We had a delicious dinner that Carson made, watched The Lizzie McGuire Movie, did homework, at popcorn with ranch seasoning, and drank of pops!

Then on their way home on Saturday they stopped again. They got here Saturday afternoon and then left on Sunday! So we headed to the Sandbar to cool off a little bit from the heat!

June wasn't horrible but we are definitely glad that it is over! I am headed to DC today to see Garrett and couldn't be more excited!
