Utah County Fair

Awhile ago my sister in law, Camille, and I decided to take our kids to the Utah County Fair in Spanish Fork. We got there early to have the kids ride the rides before all the lines. We ended up having to wait until they opened. While we waited we went and saw a horse show and the different animals they had. The kids also really loved riding the rides. It was a fun day!

Lizzie's surgery

About a week after Lizzie broke her nose she had surgery to realign it. Everything went well. I tried to get a picture of her before the surgery, but she said I could take some pictures of her while she was still asleep afterward. The hardest part now has been trying to keep her still. She feels so good and thinks she can still run around. One more week then she can be active again. Her nose looks much better and almost back to her cute self.

Camping

Two weekends ago we went camping up in American Fork Canyon with our friends Gen and Ashton and their little girl Lucy. The kids enjoyed playing in the creek near by and eating lots of smores. I hardly slept at night, but still had a good time. Saturday morning however, Lizzie was walking towards the car and tripped on a rock and hit her nose on the bumper of Shae's car. It started bleeding really bad and swelled up. We were positive that she broke it. Not long after that we headed home.

Boating

My brother was kind to take us boating for July 24th. I was especially excited to go since I'm not pregnant and could wake board and wake surf. I got up on the first time, so that is good since I haven't done it for a couple years. Grandma also came with us along with Michael's kids. Camille was out of town. Grandma tried getting up on the surf board, but had no luck. Maybe next time. The kids love the boat and enjoyed swimming in the water. Aiden didn't really like swimming, he was a little scared. Well we had good food and a good time. I can't wait until we can go again.

Zoo

We have enjoyed having a zoo pass this year for the family. Since Aiden has had staples in his head and we couldn't go swimming at the pool, we decided to go to the zoo. My friend Evelyn came with us. We had a great time seeing all the animals and then going to Red Robin after to get a cheeseburger.

Boise

A couple weeks ago we went to Boise to visit Uncle Scot and Aunt Megan. They were performing in the play The Wizard of Oz. Aunt Megan played the part of the wicked witch and Uncle Scot played the parts of Uncle Henry, a munchkin, and the gate keeper. Aunt Megan was so convincing Aiden would shake every time she came on stage. She had the perfect evil laugh. Scot was very good as well. I especially loved him as a munchkin because he is normally a big guy. I liked how they used chairs and some clever costumes. The play was really good. It is now one of my favorites that they have performed.
We also enjoyed swimming at the hotel pool, going to the Discovery Museum, and going to the park to watch the fireworks for the 4th of the July. We mostly enjoyed seeing Uncle Scot and Aunt Megan.

St. George

Yes, I am updating our blog! Can you believe it? So for Memorial Day weekend we went to St. George with my Dad and Debbie, Michael and his family, Becca, and us. We stayed at Michael's bosses house. It is a 4 million dollar house. It has 2 swimming pools, steam room, sauna room, huge theater room. Anyway is was really nice. We played some tennis, swam, watched movies, and played games. It was pretty fun!
