Back to the Simple Life







A few days ago I sat and went back to the beginning of this blog and was reminded of why I started writing it, why we moved to Utah and the fact that we have kind of gotten away from that. It is all about the Simple Life! This weekend was a great reminder of why we are in Utah and what it is that we love about it.


We got to go to the Lehi Round Up Rodeo....the perfect reminder of small town America and how much I love living in it. We get so caught up with work, school, and just being busy that we forget to enjoy the small things. Another reason we wanted to be here was to be by family. This weekend we got to go to little Addy's birthday party which was another reminder of how great it is to be close to family.
Back to the simple life!

Yay for the rodeo!! Love it! Although I am a little disappointed that ben didn't wear a cowboy hat! :)

Why does it seem like Ben has numerous "special" friends? I think almost every picture of Ben with a friend is one in which the friend is pulling a face or Ben is pulling a face... they must never be serious at the same time... I am talking aloud, just thought it was interesting...

Allison, you are totally right. Ben had some good buddies and they are all kind of goofy. The best thing about the friend in this picture is that he is also my co-worker (long story) and he is SO serious and professional at work.
