Savannah worked at Funfinity this week as usual. The owners are out of town so she got called in to help with problems here and there. She knows that store inside and out! She went back to the health doctor this week and things are looking better, but she will be starting a new food regimen next week! She stopped dating Jared and went on a date with a new boy on Friday. She will keep looking!

Mariah worked her final days for Provo Rec and Springville Rec. She interviewed for a supervisor position at the student rec center in Saint George and she got the job! Otherwise this week she has been making sure she has the things she needs for her apartment and getting other odds and ends done including working her last shift at the temple. She will miss that! She ran 40 miles this week and is looking forward to meeting her team next week and having teammates to run with!

Cheyenne worked at Heritage assisted living. She has one more day next week and then she'll be done. She has made great friends with the residents and will miss them very much! She's also been able to do things with friends and with siblings. She and Cali hiked Squaw Peak with their friends Friday evening. 

Calianne worked for BYU food services everyday this week. She is starting to rake in the Cougar Cash! She also is getting some odds and ends done in addition to making time for friends and siblings. She really enjoyed the Squaw Peak hike and also made sure that the siblings got a night this week sleeping on the trampoline. Aw traditions!

Bethany and Benjamin went to Splash Summit with the Francom's this week. They also had karate on Tuesday and Thursday. They did lots of things with their neighborhood group, Max and the Mila's. We were hoping to take the church youth to float Provo River but we cancelled because of rain and possible lightning. They were really bummed that it got cancelled! Beth went to a church dance Saturday night and had a good time there!

We did two really fun activities as a family this week. On Thursday night, we took everyone in the house (Ben, Beth, Cali, Chey, Mariah, Savannah, Kevin, and I) to the movie theatre to see Top Gun Maverick! We very, very rarely take everyone to the theatre so it was a real treat! Plus, we all loved the movie and we keep talking about how awesome it was and our favorite parts. Cheyenne has wanted us all to go see it since the beginning of summer and I'm so glad we finally made it happen!

On Saturday, Savannah, Mariah, Kolby, Chey, Cali, Beth, Ben, Kevin, and I went scouting for adventure! We found it in the form of the hike to Bald Mountain Peak above Kamas. We went early to avoid any lightning showers. We did avoid lightning but hiked in rain for about a half hour at the beginning! It's only a mile and a half to the summit, but it's almost like climbing stairs the whole way. The air is very thin, too. Beth said she felt like a giant was sitting on her lungs! Beautiful hike, though! Lots of wildflowers and very few trees make it so you can see the view the whole way and it just keeps getting more stunning the higher you go! Afterwards, we stopped at Dairy Keen for lunch. We got home later in the afternoon very exhausted but happy with our new memories together!
