Yes today Adrienne and I braved the two dollar tuesday's at Thanksgiving Point and took the girls to the Farm Country. It was alot of fun and the wait to get in was not that long. It was the wait to ride the horse's that took forever. Thanks to Adrienne for waiting in line for us while me and the girls went and saw the rest of the animals other wise I think the girls would not have been able to ride. Hailee even did good just sitting in the stroller. This is Ellie's first time on a horse. Below is a short video of the horse ride.

Camping

Here is some of the 4 wheelers.
Here is Ellie and Hailee playing in the dirt while we were loading up. We emptied the coolers out and they decided to play in the mud that it made.

Me and Hailee

Derek's Dad and Revo and Derek. We were taking a little break so they decided to relax.

This is where Hailee spent most of her time was sticking her fingers in the dirt.

Last weekend we were able to go camping with Derek's Dad and Revo. It was alot of fun. We went to Fish Lake and rode 4 wheelers. The ranger was so nice to be able to put the girls in and they both were able to take naps in there car seats while we rode. We will be going back next year and the girls did great too. It was so nice to be able to roast marshmellows on the fire and roast hot dogs too.

Hailee Eating Marker

Hailee got into Ellie's markers the other day and was trying to color with them and was tasting them too. I was so glad that they were washable.

A Little of This and That

Hailee loves to play in the sink. So when I am washing my face at night she comes into the bathroom and plays in the sink. That night she also wanted her sisters panties on too.
This time she wanted her sisters socks on.

She is just looking cute here!

Both of them sitting on the couch cushon drinking chocolate milk and watching cartoons. (Sorry it is a little bit blury.)

The other day Hailee wanted on her sisters helmet and wanted to ride the 4 wheeler just like Ellie. Hailee wants to do the same things her sister does and as you can tell in all of these pictures Hailee is only in her diaper. Well when we went down to St George a few weeks ago it was so hot that while we were at my parents house she didn't want any clothes on so I didn't worry about it but now that we are home she is the same way. Oh well what do you do. Thank goodness she is only 1 years old and can get away with it right!

Ellie's Last Day at Dance

It was Ellie's last day at dance class for the summer. She really enjoyed it and I think we are going to put her in dance this fall too. She did really good at her dance recital.

Hailee's Birthday Party and the Dean Family Get Together!

All the girls in there Bandana Skirts that I made. I was pretty proud of myself for making them. I am not a very good sewer. But they turned out cute. I can't get Ellie to take hers off to wash it.

Another Family Picture

The Fourth of July Fireworks family style. There was no way the kids were going to wait up for the big Fireworks.

Ellie slept like this part of the way home. It was quite the weekend. She I guess she was pretty tired.

When we got home Hailee got to finally open her presents. She got a baby labtop and Ellie wanted her to have a mister potato head and she got she cute cloths too.

Here is the Magic Carpet again. Even my husband and sister got on it and tried it out.

Hailee and this mini tractor that my Grandpa Southam has for the kids to peddle around. So I guess even Hailee got to ride on a tractor.

Ellie and the fun sprinkler that my brother's Family brought.

The Vernal 4th of July Parade.

My whole Family. It is very rare and very hard to get all of my Family together. So it was really fun and of course we had to get a picture.

Ellie and Macie

My Family in my Grandma Southam's Orchard.

Here is the kids again. There is Ellie,Macie, Cole, Kadyn, and Evie.

This was the high light of the weekend. The kids could not get enough of the Magic Carpet Ride. There is two videos doen below to see. But my Grandpa Southam has this piece of rubber and some carpet glued to it and them pulls the grand kids on it behind a four wheeler. They were on it almost the whole time. Here is Ellie, Macie, Evie, and Kirk.

Here are the kids feeding the cows there cow treats.

The kids even got the chance to gether the eggs from the chickens. I didn't think Ellie would but she got right up there and grabbed one even when there was a chicken screaming at her.

Ellie on her tractor. I think she got this one because she could get up on it herself.

These are all of my Grandpa Southam's tractors and the older cousins all got to sit on one and pretend they were driving. They loved it. The kids were outside almost the whole time. That is how I grew up me and my siblings were always outside playing.

Hailee wasn't sure what she was suppose to do with the Birthday Cake

but she liked looking at the candle while it was burning.

Hailee in her Birthday crown! She didn't want it on.

Hailee's Birthday Cake

Here is all of Ellie and Hailee's cousins on my side of the Family(except Hailee and Braxton) eating outside at my Grandma and Grandpa Southam's Ranch. It was so nice not to have to clean up after we ate because we just ate outside.


It was a really fun weekend and I am glad that we were able to go. The kids got to experience the fun of Farm Life and have fun. I don't think they even got to sun burned. It was great to be able to get together with all of my family at the same time. I hope we can again sometime.

Here is the two videos of the Magic Carpet Ride. In the winter my Grandpa Southam would pull us kids on the top of a old truck hood in the snow with a tractor in his field. We loved it. I am glad he has come up with the Magic Carpet ride for the summer.
