Pioneer Day

For Pioneer Day this year my parents and my sister Mary came to visit. Trinity and Paige were up at my parents house for the week so they brought them back with them on Friday. Mary came up on Friday night.

On Saturday Jared and my dad got up early and went to the church farm to help out. Then when they got home we had a yummy breakfast and headed out to Levan.

At 10:00 Levan held their annual Primary Parade. We love that parade because it's full of kids and they throw a ton of candy. The girls decided that they wanted to watch the parade this year because last year they were in it and they didn't get any candy. This year, they got a ton of candy. We sit in front of Grandma Myrts house.

After the parade we headed on down to the Levan Town park for lunch. We had our choice hamburgers, hotdogs, or chicken sandwhiches. They had big blow up toys for the kids to play on and games. We usually sit down at the park all day but the kids were getting tired so we ran home for a few hours to catch a nap, then we headed back to Levan for dinner.

After dinner there was a band that played some old music to entertain us for the evening. They were also selling suckers and Mary bought one for each of the kids. Lucas loves suckers.

Lucas was so cute, he kept sharing his sucker with Jake.

Last but not least were the fireworks. They were awesome, and a perfect way to end our day. I'm so glad that my parents and my sister were able to come with us.
Best friends - This is the only picture I got of these two, they were so busy playing and having fun, but I finally got them to sit still for a minute.

Our week with Trinity

So last weekend when we were in St. George, we had a little girl that wanted to come visit us really bad. So we brought my neice Trinity back with us.

On Monday we went to Jumpin Jacks for FHE.



On Tuesday & Wednesday the girls spent all day outside playing in the pool.
On Thursday Mary & Tabi came up and we went to the Rodeo in Nephi, part of the Ute Stampede.

The girls loved their snow cones, it's one of the best things about going to a rodeo. They also loved their hambugers. Silly girls, they can eat a ton of food.





MMMM.....Carmel Apples

On Friday we went to the Carnival.


He ate most of this corn dog, then threw the rest on the ground.

On Friday after the carnival we came home and put the kids to bed. Then Mary, Tabi, & I made 200 oreo cookies (so 400 cookies, then sandwhiched together) for Jared's work on Saturday, we were up until 3:00am. Then we were back up at 6:30 so we could drive to Brigham City to celebrate my dad's 60th birthday.
