Benjamin's New Bow!

I got Benjamin a new Bow for his double bass. Its made out of wood, unlike his last one. Its a really nice bow. He loves it!

Yelow Stone

I loved this geyser! It came right over on to the path and enveloped me. It went on for a long time and I just stood there getting blasted with sulfer steam.

This is what I looked like after. What a mess!

We had a blast at Yellowstone with Mamma Kaye, Papa Ben, Anthony, and Kylie. We all drove over in the big white van and saw a bunch of geysers, paint pots, waterfalls, and Hello, Dolly at the play mill. We pigged out on homemade taffy and huckleberry ice cream. What a fun day!

Just Around The River Bend!

Benjamin just had to tip the canoe!

Benjamin took my little sister Emily and brother Joseph to the canal at the Romney abode. They had a blast tipping the canoe, pretending they were in Indian territory, and eating currants, while I pouted about the mosquitos and them not holding still for pictures. A fun time.

THE YELLOW SUBMARINE

As you can see, it just one long rectangle with just a curtain at the bedroom entrance. The only real door is to the bathroom.

Pretty cramped!

The bedroom is so small that there is barely enough room to walk around the bed

The kitchen is actually pretty nice. Not much counter space, but not bad.

This is the tiny trailer that we lived in this summer. It is so Ghetto and small! It looks like a boat or something. We had fun though. And you can see our stylish mini van in the picture too. Unless you went 15 mph or more the door ajar dinger wouldn't stop. So annoying! But Pappa Ben and Benjamin fixed it the other day! We have had fun in our yellow boat and gold mini van. Fortunatly, we moved to Wagon Wheels last week and it is much larger! And we've upgraded from yellow siding to brown carpet! Life is Good!!!

SNOW BIRD!

We had fun riding the tram up the huge mountain that was just out side our room

Benjamin is on top of the world!

We rode on these blue sleds down the alpine slide.



Benj and I took a fun vacation to Snow Bird, Utah, after a hard semester. We rode the tram and the alpine slide, took a Tai Chi lesson, went swimming, pigged-out at The Cheese Cake Factory, and went to a session at the Salt Lake Temple. We also visited Grand Pops Romney, all the Whiting family in Mapleton, and my uncle Sean Nissen in Springville. Thanks Mamma Kaye and Pappa Ben for letting us use the Condo!

NISSEN FAMILY REUNION

Smelling the flowers

We went on some really fun four-wheeler rides

Benjamin is rolling up our tent.

We've had some fun Family Reunions this Summer. Here are some Nissen Reunion pictures from up at the Ranch. Look at the Romeny Relation Blog for Romney reunion pictures. We forgot our camera.

OUR HONEYMOON

Las Vegas!!! We walked the entire strip and back!

This is the aquarium inside the Mirage

On the Strip

Zion's was so much fun!

This is Benjamin going crazy after so much driving

We had the best honeymoon ever! We spent most of the time in St. George and Las Vegas. We went to Zion's National Park, Phantom of the Opera, and tonz of great restaurants. It was a blast!
