APRIL- I turned 25 on April 8th and we went to Cantina Los Tres Hombres for dinner. All my closest friends showed up and it was a great time...too bad it was a Tuesday night and I had work the next day so it was a pretty calm night. The ladies at my work got me butterfly and superhero cupcakes along with a card which had a hairy man with a thong on the front, can you tell that they know I have a sense of humor? At the end of the month I became an HIV prevention instructor for the Red Cross, one of 14 in the state. It was a great course and I learned so much and met so many great people.
MAY- This was a busy month- Kenna had her bachelorette party the first weekend which was so much fun. As you can tell--->

Then the next weekend Trav, me, Reggie and Gus went camping up at Boca Reservoir-
The weather was beautiful and it was a really nice and relaxing time...Reggie and Gus loved it too but kinda got pooped by the second day so we sent them home with friends.

For Memorial Day weekend the whole family headed to Lamoille Canyon and it was so beautiful there, you wouldn't think a place like that exists in Nevada, but it is one of the most amazing plsces I've ever been. It was great spending time with the family and we had a great time, and all got along great, despite what this photo might make you think.

JUNE- Another insane month for me. The 13th through the 16th we went on the yearly boat trip to Lake Shasta and it was so much fun. We rented a smaller boat this year and less people came which meant no random people which was a good change from last year. This is the trip everyone looks forward to each year and it is just a time to not really think about all the things at home that stress you out and no one got hurt this year even though Travis had a run in with a rattlesnake (which he promptly killed with a rock).
The day after we got back from Shasta I was on a plane to Vegas for Kenna and Jerry's wedding which has been posted all over Sara's blog if you want to read about it (I know, i'm lazy).
JULY- The 4th Travis, Steve, Weaver and I floated down the Truckee and our goal was to go from Mayberry to downtown. Unfortunately, the sun decided to be a jerk and never came out so we were freezing and luckily Luke and Eric were at a park (which I have never seen before but it was heaven when I did) and they plucked us out of the river, and saved my life :) We watched fireworks that night and I fell asleep while the whole party went to look for Steve's dog who took off during the fireworks, but they found her.
Mom's birthday was on the 19th and although I couldn't be with her that day, my heart was.
At the end of the month we went to Salt Lake to one of Trav's friend's weddings. I got to meet all the grandparents and his friend's from high school.
AUGUST- The month is half over already, and the summer is coming to a close :( but last weekend was Hot August Nights which I personally hate. What made it better was that Kenna and Jerry came into town but they only stayed the weeked, which wasn't long enough. We went to Buckbean Brewery for an event Marcus was having and then down to the Truckee and looked at cars, we also saw Pineapple Express which I thought was hilarious, even if it was a little stupid. Then we had breakfast with everyone on Sunday morning and they took off. Like I said, it wasn't enough time.
Well, that's the recap, I'll try not to wait so long to post again....try, no guarantee :)
