Ellie loves Johnny!

Oh wow!! Again I have to say that it has been an awfully long time since I last posted, and I am sorry for that. However, it does indicate that John and I have been very busy with life and work, which is always wonderful. I am still absolutely in love with my job, and John the same. We have been enjoying playing softball with our church, working hard, and soaking up the wonderful summer sun. Right now I find myself lounging on this wonderfully plush couch in my parents cabin in Estes Park. We just got back from wondering around downtown, checking out all the outdoor stores. John has been stocking up on small thises and thats for his hike up Longs Peak on Thursday. He is going on this mission with my cousins boyfriend, Kyle. He did his one and only prerequisite, Ypsilon, it was a 7 mile hike with an elevation of 13,500. So far it has been wonderful enjoying the mountains and my family. We also had an incredible time at our friends’, Lucas and Kim, wedding. It was BEAUTIFUL. The service was held in this lovely chapel in downtown Boulder, and the reception was at an art gallery. So in every picture there is a beautiful piece of art…so gorgeous, and so fun. It was awesome to see old friends, we miss them so much. You know that you are good friends when you have not seen them in over a year, and everything feels the same. It was sad to see them go, not knowing the next time that we will see them. Anyways, onto more pleasant thoughts. This summer is INCREDIBLE!!!! John and I had not had a day off in over 5 months, and so we are loving it. We cannot believe that we have another week long vacation a month from now, where we get to see more of our long missed family….we are so stinkin blessed!!! I LOVE LIFE!!!!! And with that said, I should get back to living it. I love and miss you all. Here are a few precious pictures from the wedding. Hugs and kisses!
