June 2020

Black Lives Matter Protest

 

Cee Ryle's 21st Birthday! We are so lucky to have him in our family!



We found Buster's "twin dog"




Celebrating the boy's birthdays! 

Still going on walks together




We dogsat Blossom while her family went on a trip. Buster gets tired of Blossom chasing him around but he began to tolerate her!

Gracie mowing the lawn for the first time!

Pedicures with the girls


We decided to have a yard sale to raise funds for Cultiva (a non-profit organization in Guatemala where we went and helped one summer). They were struggling with money because of Covid19. We asked for donations from people in our ward and we got many donations to help us.



The yard sale was a success! We donated over $1400 to them. 

I'm going to miss these walks! I love being out with the family!

After much convincing, the kids finally got us to go camping! With Covid we didn't have much to do so why not? It was only for two nights but we had so much fun!




We went to Pineview to play in the water :)













The whole gang

I liked the way this explained why masks are important. And this is a common topic of conversation these days!

June during quarantine wasn't so bad. Stores opened up with limited capacity so sometimes you had to stand outside and wait to be let in. Restaurants opened with limited indoor dining. We did not attend any church services. We did all learning and partaking of the sacrament at home as a family or on our own. Casey went back to work but I had the summer off so didn't have to worry about it.

May 2020


May started off with Annie and Blake getting married. The temples were closed so they had to do a small ceremony with only a few people present. We were able to watch it through Zoom.

Mi Mami (my mom) I'm so lucky to have her! Always looking up to her for her kindness and love!


Still going on lots of hikes :)






Finally to to go out to eat!

Cee Ryle bought a new car (convertable) and took us for a ride.

Graduation at DaVinci was different this year! I got everything organized at home and took it to the school ready for the students. They walked one at a time, the family could come in and watch them walk and take pictures. Then they walked out and we waited for the next graduate. We had to be creative!


The hallsways were decorated for the class of 2020
