Beauty in the backyard

One great thing about summer is flowers. Before having kids, I took a lot of pride in taking pictures of flowers. The last 4 years I haven't really been taking pictures of them anymore. So I'm excited that I've started taking pictures of them again.



I've been pretty blue about living in Utah ever since my family moved to Tennessee 6 months ago. Brian took all of us up to the mountains and it was a great reminder of the beauty that Utah really holds. It really helps me feel better about living here when I'm reminded of the good things that are here in Utah. We went up Ogden canyon. We stopped at a really pretty campsite that I'm dying to go camping at now. It was right along the Weber River. I'm a really big river fan, so I loved seeing the river. People were tubing down the river and it looked like so much fun. Hopefully in a year or two I can enjoy a little vacation just 40 minutes from our house.
Then we went up to Causey Dam. It was beautiful. Once again I hope to be able to go swimming or boating in the water when my babies are bigger.
