Strawberry Day; Pleasant Grove days celabrations. We did the rodeo, carnival and the saturday parade, and a TON of strawberries and cream!! The kids love the parade especially when they threw out the candy!! It was a bit cold but they still had fun!




Payton also had t-ball! He had a bunch of fun. His favorite part was to be the catcher!! GO GET'EM PAYTON!!

Old Stomping Grounds!

About 2 weeks ago we went to WA for my grandpa's funeral. Mark and I took the 2 little kids with us. They did really well. Scott and I wanted to show Mark around.
(this is the second longest place we live in) It was fun to go back and see things that have attached to our memories! the funeral was on Monday and took most of the day. BUT later that evening we did have a chance to go cliff jumping with Stephanie and Ben. i did it too but the guys had to talk me into it!! Over all we had a good time and loved seeing all the places we used to hang at!! enjoy the pictures!

Moab-

We went to Moab a few weeks back and it's taking me this long to blog about it because it wasn't the best memory we've made. It was rough- i got car sick both ways, kids were cranky at dinner, (we had to wait a bit) and it was rather windy! Payton like the car show after he found a car that looked like it belonged to Batman!
Lakota and Makayla love to take pictures of any car they like. We did go home on a happy note; the sand hill was by far every ones favorite thing to do! ( we didn't make it hiking or a hummer tour or to the river- i was not feeling all that great!) so here are some pictures of the rare happy moments! (we didn't get any pictures of boston and i'm not too happy about that!)
