I LOVE SUMMER!!!
It is by far, the best season. Yeah, sure, It's hot and humid, but it is great!! And nothing beats all of the fantastic events and activities available in and around Cache Valley for the summer!
There's Summerfest in June, and July brings the 4th of July festivities and fun Pioneer Day activities. There's camping in the wonderful Mountains surrounding the Valley, boating and swimming at Bear Lake and Hyrum Dam. Lagoon, Floating the Canal, mini-golfing, and this is just a tiny handful of the endless possibilities of summer joy!!
and then come August.... we have the Cache County Fair!! Summer would NOT be complete without it!
:) vendors, quilts, rides and games(which I never ride or participate in but they just add to the feel of the fair!) laughter, all of the animals, the bean displays, wonderful artwork, amazing foods, delicious smells wafting through the air, and my yearly dose of Navajo Tacos, Funnel Cakes, and Texas Twister Lemonade.... :) Summer would not be complete without them!!! Everything rolled into one make the entire atmosphere of the Fair the best!!!
This year, I got to go walk around the Fair three times!!
Thursday afternoon I went and walked around with Aaron. It was really fun to walk around holding hands. ;) and it was really fun to be able to walk around and talk about the things and learn even more about him-- interests and some little things I didn't know yet. We ate Churros and spent a lot of time just talking. This was especially great considering I've been sick and hadn't got to see or talk to him hardly at all!!
Thursday Evening I went back with my wonderful Momma! :) I always love walking around with my mom. She's the best. Every year we try and convince her to enter something into the craft section-- but she never listens!! This is where I got to eat my most delicious Navajo Taco-- WHICH I have been Craving ALL SUMMER(sadly I had to miss the summerfest so I didn't get one then) It was totally worth the almost 45 minute wait in line! Before leaving the fair- I stopped and bought a slice of Strawberry Rhubarb tart, and German Cheese cake from this wonderful German guy that sells the most yummy German stuff in these parts of town!
Saturday was my third time at the County Fair-- and I went with my dear Roommate!! So fun! Even though we both ate so much and drank a ton of lemonade and practically made ourselves sick!
But really.... THE FAIR IS THE BEST!!
On top of the Fair, and after getting over the bulk of my illness, the week was great!! I don't know if part of it was just the excitement that always comes along with the Fair, or if it was just a good week but it was wonderful!!
Saturday at work was probably one of the best days at work I've had for a really long time. My manager Lynn Hobbs, almost made me cry. He's awesome! He came up to me, gave me a hug, and told me how much he appreciates me, and everything I do to help him, and how he's real glad he gets to work with me. Thanks Hobbs! I didn't get stuck with too many stupid people to help, and all the girls at work were in a good mood. Sometimes, work is awesome!!!
Saturday after the Fair, Mariana and I went on a little adventure to print a project she was working on for her mom, and then we headed to Wellsville to Heart Attack Aaron's door!! He'd been in Bear Lake for the weekend, and I was hoping he was still gone(his whole family was there) but, they weren't. so the whole time we were hurrying our fastest in hopes we wouldn't get caught!! and we DIDN'T! yay!!! we have now officially been dating a month... CRAZY!
We ended out the night with a fantastic Party at Dawna Webb's house! Her Annual August Bash is always the best!! Really, it's her birthday-- but she doesn't like to let people know that ;)
I am not excited for summer to come to an end! There's still so many things I want to do that haven't happened yet!!! But, I am excited for my next grand adventure to start in two weeks: COLLEGE!!!!!!!
Bring.It.On!!!
