Summer is in Full Swing


Finally, after snow throughout the month of May, I feel like summer has officially arrived in Park City, Utah. May was a very fast month and topped off by my best friend's wedding. Her big day was stunning, great weather until the actual ceremony during which it hailed so the ceremony was inside but everything else was outside. Besides the weather it was an incredible day, gorgeous wedding and a memory I will always cherish with my best friend!
After getting home and getting back into the usual work week Brendan and I went camping with our friends Andy and Lexi. Funny enough, Andy and Lexi are both from MN and we reconnected with Andy after we moved here. He graduated from Eagan the same year we did, and since then the four of us have had a pretty good time. We have done some fun mountain biking together and camping. I am uploading a video from us camping two weekends ago, below this post. We had a good time and are hoping to get two or three more trips in this summer.
June is going very fast, it seems very hard to believe we are not far away from the 4th of July and officially having lived in Utah for one year. Incredible, wonderful and bittersweet all at once. I still get shocked at the gorgeous surroundings (the camping sight was literally forty five minutes away from where we live). Everything continues to work out and we are blessed with good jobs, a nice place to live and meeting great friends. Only bittersweet in the sense that I wish I could have all of this and all of my family right here as well. Oh well, at least our blog and skype can help us feel apart of MN and MI as much as possible.
Love
Alyssa and Brendan
