4th of July...

The 4th of July was great this year.

I got to spend it with my Mom and Dad eating oysters (which are nasty) and hanging out by the pool...

Dad and I decided that Mom is totally ready for the next season of Survivor.

It was a such a beautiful day!

It's a beautiful thing...

For once the fiance' was able to come see me.. and I loved every minute of it. We only had 3 short days together but we made the most of it. One day we spent visiting his mission, another day we went on a hike, and the last day we spent with family working out, playing baseball, and hanging out in the backyard.

Being around him makes my life complete! I cant even begin to describe the joy I feel when he is with me! There are so many little things that happened during this trip that made my love for him grow even more. Things such as- Seeing his eyes light up when he spoke to the Spanish members and watching him play with the nieces and nephew. It was the most adorable thing and I think that he is now more in love with Dilyn that me. ;)

Overall this trip was a great success!

My Poppy means the world to me. He has done so much for me, my siblings, my mother, and all of the wonderful people that come into his life. My dad is the type of guy that would do anything for anyone. He serves others and thinks about their needs above his own. I love being able to spend a lot of quality time with him this summer and have our relationship grow even more. I look up to the man that my father is and cherish him. I am so lucky to have such an outstanding dad that has such a golden heart. I love you Poppy so much and I am so grateful each and every day for you! I hope your Fathers Day was wonderful cause you only deserve the best!
