B & L June (revised)

Lindsey and Bennamin’s June:
So June has been a pretty good month for Ben and I! We spent the first few weeks just working our bums off so we could have some money to spend on our vacation to Virginia with Ben’s family! In between working all dang day and all dang night, Ben played on an Orem rec softball team with my brothers and a couple other people from my old neighborhood. It was fun seeing them all play, but they didn’t get very far in the playoffs and finished up around the middle of June. 

                So on the 14th Ben and I flew out to Virginia to visit his Grandma and aunt, and spend a week on the beach. It wasn’t the best weather while we were there, but we were able to catch some rays, ride on scooters, eat tons of ice cream, see the AMAZING scenery (seriously, I think Kelsey is in the most beautiful state in the US), and swim in the ocean! We stayed on the cutest little island in an adorable house. I got to spend some time with Ben’s grandma that I really only got to meet for a couple of hours the day before our wedding. One of my very favorite things about being married is getting 2 more sets of wonderful grandparents and in laws. It was such a fun trip and I can’t wait to go back next year! 


I HATE how much I look like Mandi Call in this, but the sun was in my face! (That's a turtle fyi)

Ignore Ben's Boobies.
                On a quick note, I don’t know how many of my friends have actually met my Grandmother (My dad’s mom). She’s the one that lives in Orem and has been fighting Alzheimer’s for the last 10 years. Well over Memorial Day weekend we were told that her body is finally shutting down, and last night (June 23rd) she passed away, her funeral is this Friday. It's been hard, but I'm just overwhelmed with joy that she gets to see my Grandpa again after 21 years. 

                Alright, I have some nominees for this month’s best snapchats
Drum roll…….


 And this one just made me laugh SO hard. (Please tell me you remember this Kelsey!)

That’s all for us!
