Summer So Far

 Lacrosse with Becca, of course. I'm also working to put together a Utah Valley Girls Lacrosse community network to start and maintain junior league teams to feed into all the high school teams, to get Utah Lacrosse Association clinics in the public school P.E. classes, and to get all of the Utah Valley teams on the same page as far as communication and growth is concerned. I've had really good response so far, exciting! American Fork, Lone Peak, Orem, and Timpanogos are all on board so far!

 Hanging out.

 Work.

Orem Summerfest with Kayla.

 The snow tunnel below Stewart Falls.

 We're going in there? Please don't collapse in the warm melty weather...

 More of Stewart Falls.

 Andrea and Lila at the Carillon Bells Concert.

 This is how the little boys enjoyed the Carillon Bells Concert.

 Sometimes I just love all the random things that the Orem/Provo/BYU area has to offer.

 Evelyn and her big gorgeous eyes!

 Bean Museum yet again, just because Lila had never been before. It doesn't matter how many times I've been; it's still classic.

Benjamin and Garrett planted their plastic cows in their little garden plot. It's a different sort of dairy farm.

Decisions, Decisions

I don't like making life-changing choices. Right now I'm thinking about whether to serve a mission or not. That means I'd have to take Fall semester off to work to pay for it. Taking Fall semester off and then deferring for a mission means postponing school, which means I'll be in school forever. When I get back everyone my age will be done with school and moving on with their lives. That sounds selfish though, I want to be a missionary, and I want to make sure it's for the right reasons. I also need to know that I can afford it because I still want to maintain my goal of graduating with no debt. So far, so good. I still don't know what to do though. There's also the small matter of the fact that my mother would like more grandchildren. She informed me that "the Spirit better knock you over the head before you decide." Choices, choices.
