Summer and Birthdays!

We had the best yardsale on the 11th of June it was a fundraiser for my cousin Tanner who suffered with cancer for a couple years and passes away from cancer at 19 years old in May 2011. Our family got together and decided that we would have a yard sale and all proceeds would go to help pay for medical bills..Then Tanner passed away and so we decided that we still needed to do this for my Aunt Kristi.. So we spend days getting things together we had friends just donate stuff to us to sell and they asked for nothing in return it's amazing to see a family come together and support one another...We had a friend who was moving and pretty much gave everything in her house to the yard sale! We had my moms driveway and lawn full of stuff and people where coming left and right from about 8:00-3:00am it was so cool and people would give money even if they didn't owe any and they would ask about tanner cause we had a poster with his pictures on it and it was a humbling experience for me and my Aunt is a very greatful and loving and wonderful mom she was so strong and she misses him so much...The best part was giving her the $1800.00 that we raised from the Yard Sale and we were all speechless we couldn't beleive it she was so greatful...(my uncle robert is a chef at coppermill in logan and he made us Chicken enchiladas for lunch and it was amazing THE BEST COOK EVER!!)...

We also got to go to one of Daxtons T-ball games and I was so excited cause living far away we dont get to go to many things like that and I was sick with Bronichitis and laryngitis (Spelling?) but I wanted to go anyways! It was the cutest thing I have ever seen he was so excited and his dad my brother Greg is his coach and he was so cute to him! Dax had a blast he kept giving everyone thumbs up! LOVE HIM!!

Well Friday is my Birthday and I will be 23 years old this year and I am excited but then that means I'm getting closer to 25 and that scares me for some reason! Zack planned a BBQ with the whole family mine and his.. Can't wait to see my neices and nephews!! Well so much going on and the summer just started!! Stay Tuned!
