August stuff...

On the day before girls camp, Liza texted and said that Buddy's great-grandmother has passed away at the ripe age of 101 and that they were coming to Utah for the funeral.  They arrived the day before we came home from camp and stayed five days.  They came over for Sunday dinner and the evening and then we went to lunch the day before they left.  We were so excited to see them for even a little bit!


Even if they come for five minutes, Gramp has to push Aylabelle on her swing!




This man loves his family!  I love that he does!  There's nothing better than a man who loves his family with all his heart!



And this beautiful girl, I couldn't love her any more!  She's reading ZJ's book from the LHS kids!



Enough pictures, already, Gram!


That tree that fell last spring has finally died.  Our sweet friend, Dallin, came over and impressed us with his climbing skills.  Ten minutes later, it was gone!



When we came home from the ranch, a cooler filled with Zee's favorite treats was waiting on our doorstep with this sign. She's going to Homecoming!


And last but not least... Grace has been dating Ben for the last half of the summer.  She's been having the time of her life with Ben.  They have so much fun together and we all love him, as well.  We've never seen Grace so happy and loving life so much!  

They've shared some seriously fun dates!  Including going shooting and worrying me to death!  I wasn't worried about Grace getting shot.  I was worried about her shooting Ben!


Lots of hikes!


They talk for hours and laugh a lot!


Going to church!


He's taken her to Idaho to meet his family.


They shop together.  They pray together.  They play together.

This boy brings out the best in Grace!  He's definitely the best guy she's ever dated!


It's so fun to see them growing together.  I told them a few days ago that if this continued on like this for another year and they went their separate ways, I would forever be grateful for the joy that they've experienced together!  "Happiness" defines their dating.



Life is good!  August was GREAT!
