I know I haven't posted anything for a while, so I'll try to play some catch up. We've had a lot of changes in the last few months. We moved to Orem in May because Chris will be going to Utah Valley University starting this fall. He is looking forward to not having such a commute to get to school. (He was driving up to Weber State three times a week when we lived in Murray which was close to an hour drive each way.) He should be able to apply to the Respiratory Therapy program this year. I transferred to American Fork Hospital and am working on a Medical/Surgical unit now. It's been a nice change and so far I am enjoying my new job. We have had a wonderful summer so far. I'll post some pictures of a few of our activities...
We had a fun campout in our backyard with our nephews Ethan and Tanner. The next day we went on a hike with them to see a waterfall. 
My sister Amy and I took our mom to get her first pedicure for Mother's Day. We had a great time and our toes turned out pretty cute.
In July we celebrated my Grandma Stoddard's 87th birthday. It was a lot of fun to see and catch up with many of my cousins, aunts, and uncles. My grandma said she was so happy because everyone that lived close was able to come. We even had a few of the out-of-staters that were able to come. We missed those who couldn't be there.
Chris' parents are putting an addition onto their home. When they are finished they will have a laundry room that is upstairs, a mud room, a pantry, a few more rooms in the basement and a much larger kitchen /dining/living room area. It will be so nice and we can't wait to have family get-togethers there. This picture was the ground breaking ceremony we had at their house.
