missions

MONTH OF THE LEO

i feel like august just zoomed by!
which is scary & great all at the same time.
SCARY: time goes by way too fast. there’s no way i have already been married for almost a year!
GREAT: i saw Halloween decorations up the other day and got BIG chills!! fall is straight magic.

 

i can’t believe my little brother Mitchell is already done.
his farewell was amazing!
we did a fun cinnamon knot/yogurt bar after his farewell at my parents house.
cutest idea!

 

WHOEVER BROUGHT THESE.. ^^^
YOU’RE MY HERO.

 

 

it’s no Diederich party without my boy Craig attending!
it’s hard to explain how hard this moment is.
to hug your little brother goodbye and then watch him enter security at the airport knowing you won’t seem them again for 2 years.
it’s like we watched him until the last second possible.

 

it was seriously one of the hardest goodbyes.
hence my teary eyes.
his last words were classic Mitch;
“i feel like i’m entering the Hunger Games or somethin”
and then the next day after my tears were finally dried up i wrote him a letter and suddenly felt like i had a missionary again.
here it goes!
(i may or may not have been in traffic school when this letter was written…. :/ )
on a happier note:
for Will’s birthday, i took him skydiving!!
he was SOOO nervous all day long but he ended up loving it!
my best friend Karli even came along too.
it never feels real until you sign that waiver up above….

 

Will ended up LOVING it.
even though he boncked his head HARD entering the airplane.
cute thing is just way too tall sometimes.

 

another perk to my august..
PARK CITY
after my sisters wedding & sending mitchell off on his mission, my mom and dad needed park city for the week to unwind and relax.
 who agrees that park city is always the best place to be in the summertime!
it is a little bit cooler up there and just the most charming atmosphere.
i seriously love it!

 

i bought a new Rifle Paper print and I’m smiling big big big every time i see it

 

and lastly, Google Fiber has teamed up with Downtown Provo and we are attempting to break a world record!
SO if you live in Utah, come!!
