Gone Camping!!!!

A few weekends ago my family went up to our Property in Salina to go camping.
What can we say... We love the Great Outdoors!
So after work on Friday Griff and I followed Linds and Zach to the Canyon.
I was very little the last time I visited the Property.. in fact I think I was only 2!
So it was very fun to see it.
It is my Grandparents property.. but it is also my Grandma's Siblings property.
So we got to meet many of our 2nd and 3rd relatives.
It was so fun!!
When we first got their, Ryss wanted to go on a bike ride!!
So my mom took her on the 4 wheeler for a short ride.
After a fun day of getting camp set up and meeting the family we hit the sack!!
Morning!!!
Time for some Breakfast.
Laryssa loved that she had friends to play with!!
Our first ride on the trip!
This little lake was just up the canyon.
Isn't is so Gorgeous!??
Going on another ride with the fam!!
Ryssa loved every minute.
This is where a man was struck by lighting..
it hit a big tree and him and it killed him!
It was a long time ago but they made it a memorial spot for him.
Baby Girl loving the view.
We drove a just bit higher and we got to look down and see where a coal mine was.
After some fun 4 wheeling rides Griff decided to mt. bike!!
I tried going with him earlier but I failed haha!!
So I let him go alone and I brought him water on the 4 Wheeler!
HUGE cows!!!
Dinner time!!! :D
This night we all played cards!!
It was so much fun.
We had hot coca and candy and played for hours!
In the morning Ryss got dirty early!!
We were waiting for our breakfast!!
Then we painted our nails!!
While Griff went on another ride.
Hahahha!! Love this girl more then anything!
This was so awesome!
Meh... Dang Flat!!!!
You can tell by my dads body posture he is not happy!
We had such a fun time with everyone!!
Could've asked for better weather either.
Sad it is over and can't wait to go back.

Words Wednesday!!

As many of you might already know I have a new job. I still work at Sportclips but I also do Laser Hair Removal at the Sanctuary Day Spa in the mall, but the laser section is separately owned by Forum Laser!! I love it so much it is such a great job with a great schedule. My boss made my schedule perfectly to work with Sportclips.
My sister-in-law Whitney is who to thank for it all. She helped me get the "in"!!
Thank you Whit!!
I work their Monday, Thursday, and Friday. On Monday's and Thursday's I work both jobs which make for a long but reward full day. Then the other days I work one or the other! I am so happy to be doing everything that I went to school for. It makes my time so worth it!!

Griff and I have been really working hard to keep up on dishes and laundry while working super crazy schedules. Needless to say we have been very successful at it. He has really helped me out when I am working late. He even has been helping with making us dinner! What a sweetie!!

I can not even believe that it is August!! Holy Moly!!! This summer better start slowing down and fast!! It is almost Griffin's birthday... And lets just say I feel like the Worlds Worst Wife!! He spoiled me so amazing for my birthday and now with my new job I can't really take the time off to make his day all about him! So we are trying to figure something out which #1 bugs because I always surprise him on his special day and #2 bugs because I feel like I have lost my touch....
When we were dating I always had something up my sleeve for Holidays and Birthdays but it is a lot trickier when you are married and share a bank account.

On a happier note we leave for Disneyland in 2 weeks!! Griff and I are going with his family. It is going to be so much fun to see everyone. We will be celebrating our 1 year Anniversary the day we get back from this vacation!! So Disneyland will actually be our 1 year getaway!! :D

Baseball Game!!

I absolutely love going to the Bees Games!
One of my most favorite things to do in the summer.
Last week we went to go cheer on our team...
... We must not of cheered enough they didn't even get a run!
So they lost by a lot but we still had a blast!!!
Laryssa got Damma to buy her a slushy!!
Oh and a balloon haha!!
Debbie and Jori

My mom and Debbie

Smoochy!!

Ryss giving me a kiss.
Enjoying the game.
Bompa and Ryss!!
Griff loving the game!!!
Isn't he so dang cute :)
See those rain clouds??
Yup we got poured on!!
Haha but it made for a pretty picture!
Love my Grandpa!
She is the most precious girly ever!!!
Rain!!!!
Good thing Debbie came prepared with multiple umbrellas.
Otherwise we would all be soaking wet!
The players just played right through it like no big deal!!
Good job Bees!
Did you know I learned how baseball works from my hubby?
He played in High School and I would go watch him at almost every single game and he wanted me to know all the In's and outs of the game so he taught me well! I now love the game!
He was still the best pitcher to watch ever!! :)
The Bee!!!
Ryss, Sam, and Jori loved him!
 
The game is over they lost but we loved every minute of it with all our amazing friends and family!!
Hope we can go to a few more before the season is over!
And maybe they can win those!

Bragging Rights

At work we were doing a contest on who could sale the most "Season Tickets" and I won!
I sold over 40 of them in the matter of 3 weeks! :D
So because I sold the most I got a new set of Clippers and Trimmers.
Those are the best prize for a Cosmetologist!!

Not to mention I got Stylist of the Month!!
My manager really paid me a complement for helping out so much and being willing to work whatever I can to help!!
So she got me my favorite flowers which are Sunflowers and she also got me my favorite drink and candy bar!!
What a great day at work!! :D
Working hard really pays off!!
