What they mean..

I normally try to keep my blog up to date and try to get the month we just left written up and published before the first week of the current month is over. But the month of August has been just as busy as July was and there for I am so behind on writing about July. But boy did July bring fun, adventures, traveling, and more firsts.

The beginning of July started out with my good friend Annie marrying the love of her life Blaine. Callie and I made the drive to the Yreka Ca area to a small venue that had the beautiful Mt Shasta in the background. The venue was beautiful and the wedding was so pretty. A good time was had by everyone and the bride was stunning. So thankful for the invite and getting to be a witness to that incredible wedding.

A few short days after Annie and Blaine’s wedding I started the adventure back to Wyoming with Kori and Dallas for one of my best friends since births wedding. We decided to make a trip out of it and we spent two nights and a day in beautiful Moab Utah checking out Arch’s National Park. We had a great time at the park hiking around and capturing photos. One day is never enough at Arch’s. We drove through Colorado and got to see people rafting on the river through the canyon on I70. When we got to the small town in Centennial Wyoming we found ourselves in a town that had more bars then restaurants and a super cute hotel. The next two days were spent getting the wedding venue ready for this mountain wedding. The view at the venue was beautiful. It was tucked in the mountains and tree so perfectly and the meadow where they were married was perfect. Austin and Kindle put on a great wedding and getting to spend time with the McKenzie family was definitely a highlight. There was definitely a tear in my eye watching Austin marry his best friend. I am so proud of the man he is and he got himself one heck of a girl.

As soon as we got home I had a day to recover and get ready for the Tehama District Fair. Fair went good this year no big hurdles to jump over and my niece placed first in her class so she got to move onto the final drive. I love getting to work our local fair and see how much the kids have grown and changed from one year to the next.

Three days of working fair and I was back in the truck head south to see my best friend. She moved to the Pismo Beach area which just happens to be one of my favorite places in California. I was definitely over due for some Megan time. We had an amazing quick trip that included getting to see Demi Lovato in concert at the Mid State Fair. Most people that know me know that I love Demi’s music and when Meg told me she got me tickets for my bday I was more then excited. Before the concert we went and wine tasted at two of the wineries in Paso Robles. I have learned that as long as the wine isn’t really dry I will drink it and Meg still likes the sweet wines. A few days spent with Megan are a couple days well spent. Its hard to beat time with your best friend.

After a busy and amazing month of July fire season started taking off and I was chasing the white lines delivering trailers to the base camps. Fire season definitely started off with a bang. Looking back at July it was filled with loved ones and more amazing adventures.
