A day at the farm....

We gave the boys a few choices of where to go for a family outing. Mike and I were hoping that they would choose to go for a hike in the mountains. Instead, they chose to go to the farm at Thanksgiving Point. It was so much fun and the boys really liked the wagon ride. Tate talked to almost every animal and his favorite phrase was, "oh cute."

Dylan milking the cow. He told us it was like "pushing on an eraser."

The animals came right up to the fence and the kids loved this.



Tate loves the water. He has wanted to be a fish in water since he was born.

Labor Day in Parowan.....

We spent Labor Day weekend in Parowan this year. We enjoyed all the celebration activities, but we most enjoyed spending time with our wonderful family. The boys love visiting with their cousins and my parents went to extraordinary measures to provide hours of fun. The girls had pedicures on Saturday (we barely made it in time as we had to stop numerous times for Dylan to use the restroom..he was excited to see his cousins)and the boys enjoyed the car show. We stayed with my Grandma and had a nice visit with her.

The cousins at the parade. Grandma was a sport to sit through the parade.

Dylan and Payton at the carnival. These two are "bestest friends."


A few of the cousins . We went to the carnival on Saturday night and the boys ate too much cotton candy and had fun with these little people :)



Little man Tate is all smiles!



Uncle Nick and Tate. Tate resembles Uncle Nick's looks and Tate was happy that Nick took him down the slide a few times.

Top 5 things of being in Parowan on Labor Day:
#1: Spending time with family.
#2: I love to visit with friends that I went to High School with.
#3: The parade. It has many long gaps and there are more entries every year.
#4: I loved the pedicure with the girls this year.
#5: The fireworks were really good and it was new this year.
