Happy Fourth of July

So...I haven't posted in over a month. The last time I posted was for Memorial Day...now it's a whole new holiday! The month of June was super busy. I was taking a statistics class for my Masters program and it took up most of my time. Happy to say that I got an A in the class. This is my excuse for not posting. Also in the month of June, my niece was born. Elle Renae Smith. She is such a doll.
We went up to the mountains this year for the Fourth of July. The weather was great and it was nice to get out of town for a while. We went up north to the White Mountains and stayed at Big Lake. It was nice to get to know some of John's cousins. The women are really big into scrap booking. They set up an entire tent for scrap booking. Pretty impressive if you ask me. We had fun quading through the wilderness. I'm getting pretty good at it. We went fly fishing one night. John kept telling me how the fish dance on the water and I thought that he was messing with me. When we got to the water, the fish were jumping out the water...aka dancing. It was really neat. It was a great trip and definitely something that we both needed. A little R&R. Here are some pictures from the weekend. :)
