FuN aT tHe FaIr!!!

Okay So I am kind of a fair junky.....I love to go walk around all of them. Not sure why. But this year was all the more fun with Ella being big enough to do the rides and such. She is quite the dare devil and loved everything she went on.

Here We start at PEACH DAYS who doesn't love peach days it is so fun, seeing old friends, eating some Peach cobbler, walking the booths maybe buy a thing or two, And taking the kids to the parade and on the rides.. WAHOOOO!


Here is Ella and Michelle waiting for parade to start or maybe waiting for candy to be thrown


Kamryn and Mycah also enjoying the parade

Now on to the STATE FAIR


Ella as an APPLE. sorry about these two pictures it was dark and they were shiny so there is a lot of Glare


Drew and Ella as a couple of PEARS


and the whole reason we went to the fair is so Ella could ride the ponies I just thought she would love it and boy was I right. She was a little nervous at first but once she was on it was nothing but giggles she loved it. and does anyone else think she looks so old. I can not believe it


We were very busy but had so very much fun, it is all over for now but We will rest up and do it all again next year..

Bear Lake

Independence Day

We had a fun packed day on the 4th.
We had lots of things planned started at 630 am heading to Kamas for our annual breakfast at my grandmas. We went swimming with Grandpa Pete at the campground, then to the biggest slip and slide ever and ending at the Brigham fireworks(there is something about going to your hometown for holidays that make them the best) and home at 11pm. We were all very tired and not sure we have recovered yet but it was all worth it..

This is the back of Ella cute skirt(Thanks Kellee for buying this )

Kamryn and Mycah swinging form the tree holding on tight

Then we have fun Grandpa climbing the tree house with girls. Allie Mycah and Kamryn look close to see them all

One attempt to get a picture of miss busy in her outfit(she has leg warmers on because it was so cold outside that early)

Grandma Peterson with all her Great grandkids-9 total 8 which are from our family

Ella very festive!

Cute cousins

Now for swimming. It was not very warm so Kevin, Jason and Grandpa were nice enough to swim with the girls so us ladies did not have to get in the water


They made Ella have a life jacket on but they only had a thirty pound one. Poor girls face was so squished

Kamryn and Mycah enjoying the little slide


Here I am being brave and taking Ella on the big slide. not sure if she liked it or not she was not crying or smiling.


In Brigham at the fireworks.. What a great show Ella just stared not even sure she blinked once LOL

This is Ella and my live in Nanny for the week (aka Alisha my cousin)

Our little family not sure what face Ella is making

And the Whole Group-minus Jess and Krew

It was such a great day! Thanks Kevin and Jess for letting us crash your BBQ and firework party!1

BEFORE, AFTER, and the things in BETWEEN

For the last month we have been working on our yard.. I am so excited to have it done. We have had so much help from family and friends raking rocks, Trenching, placing sprinklers, re-leveling and LAYING SOD here are a few ok alot of pictures of all the work that went into it.. It will be so great to be able to go outside and play without having to pack up the gear to go to the park... Which is nice sometimes but not when you want a quick outside play time..


Ella riding the tractor with dad doing the first rake


The back yard before picture

The front yard before pictures





The next couple pictures are the family over on memorial day raking raking digging digging






Having a little fun riding on the tractor to push the rake down so it will level out the dirt





The cement pad out back (to put a shed someday when we save our money back up.
This was an attempt to put Ella hand prints. It did not turn out to good.

Drew's friend sage pouring our concrete what a pal



Trenching... Sprinklers

Laying the sod it took them about 21/2 hours not too bad we had a lot of help






The party after it was all done.. PIzza and some lounging on the GRASS! It is so fabulous





Jason, Ken, Michelle, Kevin, Krew, Suzi, Drew, Jess, Thanks Everyone for all your help and hard work
