Fun at the park












It was wet and muddy but the kids had a blast!

"Nice" girl


So today Abigale said, " Mom am I a nice girl?" I said, "Yes you are thank you." " When I become a teenager I won't be a nice girl anymore." I'm thinking crap and ask her why? She replies. "Because when I am a teenager I won't be nice because I will always cry." So funny.

Family night with friends











We went up American Fork canyon to roast hot dogs and marshmallows with some of our friends. It was so much fun. The men struggled to get a fire going but the kids didn't care, they were off on adventures and eating smore's. We had a little lesson and left when it got dark. It was great to be in the mountains.

Poor Nina


I have the worst luck with my chickens. We got 2 new chickens that were the same age as the other remaining two. One was named Nina and was Abigale's. Well one night I went out to check on them and her chest and neck was all ripped open. We assume that she was trying to get out of the little gap in the door and got hung up on the chicken wire.These pictures are after she got stitches and look so much better than they did earlier. It was like a boneless skinless chicken breast staring at me. Poor little girl. I have to give her antibiotics for 5 days. Hope things start going better with the chickens because my happy spirits are almost gone.

Childrens gardens










I went with my mom to take my kids and my sister's kids to the gardens at Thanksgiving point. Dawson wasn't crazy about the water but the other kids liked it. We had a few snacks, played in the water, and looked at all of the flowers. It was so beautiful and another fun day with the cousins.

Papa and Grandma's house
















Heather had surgery so we tried to spend as much time with her kids as possible. Grandma and Papa let us come over and play in their backyard. The kids got Popsicle and ice cream sandwiches. They were so happy and had a great time with their cousins.
