Primerica!
Our family has recently taken on a new adventure in our lives! Back in July, went to the family pool with our good friends, the Cochrane family. We were quickly recruited (and were not looking to be recruited to anything!) to an amazing company called Primerica! This company focuses on Helping Families Become Debt Free and Financially Independent. WE needed it more than ever! Brandon still has his awesome business (Southridge Microsurgical), so I am running this crazy train! To make a long story short, we are building an amazing business and making some incredible friends along the way! We have had immediate success, but not without some crazy amazing help from Phil and Heather Cochrane! We love you guys and are looking forward to an amazing future! We just got back from Lake Las Vegas and learned some great values and lessons! See the pics below!
Utah State Fair
So we always have to make an annual trip to the fair! We ventured out last weekend and the kids had an absolute blast! They rode the big yellow slide(brings me back to my childhood) and Anna had her first churro!
