It feels like forever since I last posted a blog, and lots of events have happened that I want to post.

 To start off, my really nice digital camera broke! AHH... it is really depressing. So I have resorted to using Dallin's camera from his mission, lets just say its a little beat up, is quite old, and doesnt take as good of pictures, but it still does the trick. Hopefully I can get my camera fixed and we won't have to buy a new one.

May was quite a month for us. It included:

1 new nephew, 1 5k race

 2 birthdays,

3 friends weddings, 3 graduations,
and lots of fun!

Here are some pictures of our happenings in May.

To start off, we celebrated one of our nephews
first birthday at his home in Lehi with a fun little party.
Happy Birthday Maddix!

Then on May 18th we got a New nephew, Grady James Ball. And he is Very adorable!

Devin, Sarah, Cooper and Grady Ball

Dal and I holding baby Grady, how cute!

We went four wheeling with some of our friends up Mayfield canyon. It was still snowy and Really muddy, but overall was a lot of fun. We always have lots of fun with Dallin's friends, they are like family!

Matthew graduated from Pre-School!

He is growing up really fast; he is almost 5 and is extremely handsome!! 

It was so cute watching him and his classmates sing their songs for us and tell us about their year in preschool.

Kaka's Dance Recital

Jess is a really good dancer and she is the Dance Sterling Scholar for Manti next year, 

we are really proud of her! 

Weddings!

We had 3 friends get married in May. It was really fun to attend all three temple ceremonies and wedding receptions for these 3 friends. They were all very beautiful and helped remind Dallin and I of our wedding, which was almost a year ago! I already posted pictures from one of them, here are the other 2.

Jack and Lisa Pay

May 20, 2010

Pay is one of Dallin's friends from Gunnison, and was one of his roommates at college.

Tyson and Kayla Hall

May 22, 2010

Kayla has been my best friend since 1st grade when my family moved to Manti! I love her lots; she was such a beautiful bride and I'm really happy for her and Tyson.

So far it has been quite the month! But there's still a little more to it... the last 2 weeks of May we had something to attend every single day! and we loved every minute of it.

Next event was Drayson's Graduation from Gunnison High School

Congrats Dray! We are proud of you :)

Rachel also graduated in May; she graduated from Snow College. She only attended one year and already has her associates, good job Rach!! She also had her 19th birthday on May 28th, so this was a fun month for her.

I'm a runner!

Guess what?! I ran my very first 5k race, and I loved it. After the 5k I pushed myself and have been working really hard with aunt Jennifer and we ran a 10k about 2 weeks ago!! I was so happy and sore after I ran that one :) I never thought I would say this, but I am becoming quite the runner. Dallin bought me really nice running shoes as an early birthday present, (that's what I wanted for my birthday and I love them and wear them around the house almost every day, just for fun) haha :) I would really like to run a 1/2 marathon.... maybe that is wishful thinking, but I'll run that someday, and hopefully someday soon!

Jess and her friend Rollin ran the Scandinavian 5k with me on May 29th. 

Here we are modeling the shirts we got from running it.

Hiking

The last thing we did in May was to go hiking for Memorial Day with my family up Manti Canyon. It was Dad, Mom, Matthew, Rach, Jess, Jake and Becca and their two boys, and Dallin and I. We hiked up to Milky Falls, it was so pretty!

Matthew and Taylor fighting off the bad guys.

So as you can see Dal and I had our hands full with our running shoes on just to keep up with all that was going on in May. We enjoyed spending it together as a couple and spending some time with friends and family.

Stay tuned for our adventures in June!..........
