Needless to say, it was a dream getting to be with my husband all day everyday for a month. I will say it took us a few days to figure out how to be around each other again for more than 2 hours a day, but we pulled through. We apparently still like each other, so no worries!
(I realized I already put half of these pictures on facebook, so if you want to scroll through quickly, I'll never know!)
We stayed in KC for a week after school ended before heading to Utah for the rest of the summer. And I, like many of my friends out here, put my study-free husband to work on a project I've been waiting for months to accomplish! We refinished our coffee table and we were pleasantly surprised with how well it turned out! After our week of DIY and partying with our fellow 1st year families, we headed to the mountains.
I really can't believe my family has been running the Key Club concessions stand at the rodeo for 10 years now!
Celebrating the 24th out at the reservoir! Was it a blast? Yes! Did I get the worst sunburn known to man on my legs? Yes. Wear sunscreen kids. It will save you a lot of tears.

Over the 4 weeks we traveled up and down the entire state a couple times, but it was well worth it. We were able to catch up with wonderful friends and family. Cam just enjoyed being able to "watch" hours upon hours of golf without feeling guilty about not studying!
I left Cam to a week of watching golf and helping with projects in Logan, and headed to another fun filled week of Be The Best You Girls Camp - the 8th year in a row! My heart is so full every year after this week of laughing, serving, and being with the most incredible ladies who love the Lord and live it.
So grateful for Barbara, her example and legacy!
I hope someday I can be the kind of profound influence in someone's life as this lady has been in mine. If you want to get to know the Savior better, just become friends with Sara Allen.
Oh how my heart loves them. Some of the greatest examples in my life are in this picture :) Living testimonies that trials in this life make the most beautiful women when you turn to the Savior. I'm so lucky to be part of this incredible team of coordinators!
Really though, at the end of the day.. all we are is just a bunch of crazies who love a good dance party and late night fast food runs!
Sadly I had to leave BBY a few days early this year, but I was grateful for the time I did get to be there. Towards the end of the week we headed up to Silver Gate Montana (near the North entrance to Yellowstone) for Cam's Grandpa King's celebration of life and memorial. He passed away a few months ago, and it was neat to come together with family and friends to celebrate his life and legacy.
I hadn't been to Yellowstone in years! We were complete tourists with our excitement about the bison! Loved hanging with these cute littles for a few days as well!
After our mountain adventures and 20 hours of driving in a car for 4 days, we stayed in once place for a while with my family. It was Fiesta Days time, so much of our time was spent flipping hot dogs at the rodeo and celebrating July 24th! Cam even went and sold water in the stands - what a good sport :)

Starting her young!
Cheered on the little sister as she sang in the SF's got talent. She did a fabulous job!
Hiked/walked up to Bridal Veil Falls~ Cam got a little wet :)

Uncle Cam playing pretty princess :) He's such a good sport
Adventures with the Lucy bear! If you need a good music video filmed, she's your girl! Also.. apparently she doesn't believe in King family nap time anymore. Thus we had netflix time instead :)
I was probably the worst wife ever, but I sent Cam back to start school again while I stayed one more week to play with my family. I was so sad we missed our Tanner reunion at Snowbird last year, so I took full advantage of soaking up some more memories and loving these pretty mountains :)
Don't ask me why we decided to hike in the rain.. but we did!
The same hike in the sun :) & our annual cousin pictures! Love these girls!
Other adventures of the week! So glad Hillary could come up with her littles and play with us :)
I also taught my family how to play pickle ball - a sport I have come to learn and love being a member of the King family!
It was a much needed break from the real world, but we were also grateful we had such an incredible home and friends to come back to. Here's to some very fun summer memories with the people I love with all my heart!
