I was born and raised in Salt Lake. I am the oldest of three kids. I went to Brighton High School, went to the U for a year, then got married. I have three girls and love being a stay at home mom. I work at a pre-school during the school year. I'm a fantasy nut. What started it was my love for Star Wars. I also love Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. My life's ambition is to one day be a librarian or at least work in the library. I love books and I love being around them.What activities do you and/or your family participate in every summer? Do you have plans to try something or go somewhere new this year?

Raspberry days at Bear Lake is my favorite. (the world famous raspberry shake is the best)!
ReplyDeleteI have never been to any festivals like that. They always sounds like lots of fun though.
ReplyDeleteWhen we were younger we wnet to the Strawberry Days festival. Don't have anything close by like that. We sometmes go to the co. fair, but I think it's too crowded
ReplyDeleteI have been to a strawberry days festival, but I didn't try any of the food. I want to go to the lavender days festival. I have never been and it sounds like an interesting place to visit.
ReplyDeleteI just finished "See No Evil, My Pretty Lady," a Victorian mystery by Miss Mae, and have just started reading, "Chocolate Roses", an LDS parody of Jane Eyre, by Joan Sowards. After that...who knows where my reading fancy will take me?
ReplyDeleteWe went to Strawberry Days just last week!
ReplyDeleteWent to Raspberry Days last year.
Fav summer activity is reading at a park, under a shade tree.
ReplyDeleteI just started Princes of Glass. Finished Bree Tanner (so-so). Also planning to read 2 & 3 of Hunger Games series.
