Happy JUNE!!!

I have to say that June is absolutely my favorite month of the year!! It's probably because my birthday is this month (the 27th), as well as Darwin's (the 24th). June is just such a happy month, you can't help but enjoy the sunshine and an occasional water activity outside to cool down. June, to me, is also kind of the official start of summer because it's when school gets out (I was done in April, but Darwin finishes on Thursday, so summer really gets to start for us this week!! Yay!). Our summer is going to be completely crazy this year...you wanna see our schedule? Either way, here it is:

June 9, 10, 11: Darwin and I will be on a pioneer trek with our stake
June 13, 14: Darwin's 10 year high school reunion activities
June 16-20: Darwin will be in Park City all week for a conference for school
June 23-28: Darwin will be gone again for a basin and range field trip with BYU--and he's going to miss both of our birthdays :(
July 4: Independence Day Activities---we can't wait for the Hot Air Balloon Fest!!
July 8-29: We'll be in New York for 3 full weeks!! Yay!! Watch out NY....here come the Demings!!
July 30, 31 & Aug 1: Dar has a 3-day field trip in between 2 of our other trips
Aug 2-14: We go to Oregon with Dar's family for a crab fishing trip/vacation. Yay!
Aug 19: Dar has to be back at school
Aug 27: Fall semester starts for me

All in all, Darwin will be home for only about 3 1/2 total weeks of his entire summer! We definitely didn't intend for our summer to get this crazy, but we're totally looking forward to our fabulous Summer 2008 adventures!
