Friends we miss and love!


So, I'm not apologizing in any way for how long it's taken me to put these pictures up! I'm having major anxiety and I knew that looking at these pics of my st. george peeps would be hard. But, we do hard things and I wanted to share some of the fun things we did with our awesome friends in St. George before we moved away.


Me, Whitnee, Tracee and Laura....Whit was so gracious to host a BBQ in her ridiculously cute house and it was so much fun. There was super good food, awesome converstaion, some pretty funny kiddos and all in all a great time.

This is Max and Cannon....two of the cutest boys ever! They were on a major potato bug finding mission that night. I think one of them rounded up 16!

Cambria and Ava....oh how I love Ava. She is so silly and sweet and full of personality, Cambria is still always asking if she can play with Ava in nursery ;)

Some of the kids in our ward. The activity we had planned was to go skim boarding (way harder than it looks or sounds) and have a BBQ. I brought Adam and Cambria along and we had so much fun. Well, until we were playing in the water & I got tackled which threw my wedding ring right off my finger. Into the disgusting, dirty, flowing water. After a very necessary profanity (sorry Colton) and some incoherent screaming I was searching all through the water. Adam was convinced I'd lost it and no one else really understood what I was saying, so I was frantically looking through the water and I amazingly found it. I know. I'm a moron for wearing it in the water...lesson learned ;)


Ava and Cambria chillin in Matt's truck.



We had a get together at Vernon Worthen park a week or so before we left. We bought a whole lot of pizza and invited as many people as we could think of. We were so grateful for so many good friends who came to see us, eat with us, stay late & play volleyball. It was truly overwhelming to feel the love and support of so many people who cared about us, or who were there for free pizza. Anyways, this cute girl is Olivia.


Some of the kiddies....Cambria, ZeZe, Hallee, Carter, Olivia and Chandler.



Ryan and Lolly...she worked with Adam at Ruby River and he gave us so many great discounts on art work & framing. Man we are gonna miss them ;)




This is one of my sweetest and best friends McKenna, her hubby Bart and their ADORABLE baby Ella. Kenna and I worked together at Pier 1 and went throught a lot together. She has been a great friend to me for a long time and I love her and her cute fam.


My cute VT Jenn and her cutie Preston.


I know I look like a tard in this pic, but it's one of the ONLY ones we have with our awesome friends Nat and Adam. This was after we packed up our house & we tricked Natalie into coming over by telling her that we needed help cleaning and instead went out to dinner. It was so much fun, but honestly it's hard not to have fun with them! She is my running buddy, and I so miss her!


This is Micah, Chelsea and their daughter Lily, who is just 3 weeks younger than Cambria. They have been awesome neighbors and made living there so much more bearable. Love them.
There are a lot more people that we love that we don't have pics of, but love nonetheless. Our friends will probably never entirely know how much we love and appreciate them, they truly were our family and a major support to us, even if they didn't know. We love you guys, and miss you!

I got to see your Mom when we were in Utah last month and she told me you were moving! I'm sure it was hard for you- it looks like you had some amazing friends:) Hopefully, you are getting settled in up North!

It looks like so much fun. I love the orange wall. You look great as always.

Laura said...

I love these pictures. You guys are so amazing and we miss you like crazy. I was running errands around town the other day and Ava kept asking for Cambria. I have tried several times to explain to her that Cambria moved, but she doesn't quite get it. Anyway, after I told her for the millionth time that Cambria had moved away, she said, "Camb-wia? She has a stinky bum? She go away to have a stinky bum?" We got a good laugh at that. Ava sure misses her.
