The Summer of Twenty-Eleven

I am new at this blogging thing, but I am getting the impression that everyone does a post to recap their summer activities.  I thought I would join in and do my own Summer of Twenty-Eleven post in David Letterman style.

Here is my top ten favorite activities of the summer:

#10 - Youth Activies

 

 Girl's Camp

 Youth Conference - highlight - riding the Park City Zipline!

#8 - Our Sausage Soiree

# 6 - Family Parties (Wood and Wightman)

#5 - Starting my blog

#4 - The Farmer's Market

#3 - St George

#2 - Camping/Boating

My Mom always says we have a fun life and I would have to agree. We do!!!

As Easy as Pie

Whoever coined that phrase

never made pie.

Lara is getting married

so we had a Tasty Pastry Party in her honor.

So I spent the day making pies.

Making pie crust.

 Rolling pie crust.

 Fluting pie crust
(all by myself - Mark usually does this part)

 Et voila!
Coconut Cream Pie.

 Linda made Pumpkin Pie.

I also made Lemon Chiffon Pie, Chocolate Cream,

 and French Silk.

 Annie brought Key Lime.

Tiffany made Apple and Perky brought Berry Pies.

Great food!

But the best part was seeing the family:

Paige, Libby and Susan

 Annie and Courtney

 Perky,

Linda, Malia, and Tiffany

 Jennifer,

Jamie, Samantha and Katie

 Barbara & Maxx, Carrie

 Camille and the Bride/Guest of Honor - Lara

 Grandma Eleanor and Katie

Nancy and Jessie

Thanks to everyone who came!

The Greatest "Sno" on Earth

One of my favorite things

is a tiger's blood shaved ice!

So when Russ and Ciindy said

they were bringing their

Tropical Sno goodness,

I knew there was nowhere

else I would rather be than at the

Ward Potluck Dinner!

 Yummmmmmmm!

 Cindy {the sno queen}

Russ {the "sweet" guy}

 Charisse {the blog post stealer}

 The funniest spoon holder at a ward party EVER!!

Andrea, Charisse and Wendi
