Pie anyone

We headed to the Davis county Fair with my friend and her kids.  The kids entered to be in the pie eating contest and my friend secretly entered me.  She entered herself too. As we were listening to the names being called Preston told me that Trudy entered me.  I looked at her and she was smiling.  I thought they had called 8 people and said oh good not me just as they drew one more name and low and behold I was pulled.  I have never done anything like this so it was fun.  So thanks Trudy for giving me the expereince ;)  The kids got a kick out of watching mom get a mouthful!!!!

Family Fun

Chad went on a overnighter with just preston to spend some time together.  So while they were out of town I took the other 3 minature Golfing at Cherry hill.  They had fun.  I thought they were just so cute.  And it was my kind of golfing. Run and throw it in and move on.  We were done pretty quick.  Love my kids!!!!

Family Reunion

love when they fall asleep in the stroller

A couple of weeks ago we had a family reunion with Chad's Grandpa's Sister and family.  We do it once a year and it is the only time we see that side of the family.  It is so good to meet new people.  This year I noticed how as adults we sit in our own families and don't mingle much with the other families but then I watched as our kids and their kids just played together like they were friends forever and couldn't help but think how amazing little kids are at just making friends with anyone that will be a friend back.  I thought to myself that we all need to be more child like and look past all our insecurities and just be friendly.  Cause watching the kids have a great time i couldn't help but think about all we were missing by not moving past our own comfort zones and having a blast too! 

The moon and Buck

On our way home from my parents we decided to head up the behind there house to scout out deer.  As we found deer herd after herd we saw the moon start to rise above the mountains it was really cool.  Preston wanted me to take pictures as it got higher and higher so that is the moon at the beginning on until it was high above us.  Just beautiful. 

Lagoon..

Here is what kambria thought of lagoon



Hot but happy

 I am sucker for Lagoon.  I love it.  Chad hates it.  So I go every year without him.  The kids are old enough that they really enjoy it as well.  It was fun to go on bigger rides with Preston and he liked everything.  I dragged Colton on some rides and freaked him out at times.  Karleigh loved kiddie land but was not fond of the bigger rides.  Kambria was great.  I felt bad after a while so Chad hurried home from Idaho and came to get her because it was just soooo HOT.  She is such a trooper I love her.

Chocalate Facial anyone????

This is what happens when our kids get bored in the car.  The other day we went to my parents a hour and half drive and with four little kids they find almost anything to keep themselves busy.  I could hear karleigh just laughing in the back I turn around to see this....

Wow has it been forever.....

Did you all think I was long gone from this whole blogging buisness? Well probably not since I am not sure who even reads this. I was deciding wether or not to keep blogging but I feel that it is good for me to post what is going on with our family if only it is for our enjoyment to look back on. 

Chad's sister got remarried on July 28th.  So to have a fun little girls' night out we went to get pedicures the night before.  It was fun to go all together.  It was Karleigh's first time she thought it was a little boring and was sad that her finger nails didn't get to get painted but she loved her cute polkadot toes at the end. 

The wedding was beautiful and she found a wonderful new guy! We really love him.
