August Random

 






Tooke Maddi for her sinus surgery. She'll be recovering at our house for a bit. We took really good care of her.
Hallie is back for her 2nd year working at the Mcfarland Farms first it'll be the farmers market and then it will transition to the pumpkin patch in late September. Grateful she has a place to help teach her responsibility and to earn some money.

We've been using our Lagoon passes as much as we can but after I rode this ride I had to lay on the grass I was sure I was going to throw up. I wasn't built to ride rides
Gracie and I took Maddi out to lunch in Salt Lake we went to Redmond Farm restaurant where the food is about as clean as it gets.


Just making cupcakes
All dressed up
While at Brit's Liam got hit in the head with a nerf gun and it cut it pretty good. It seems to be healing well and luckily he has hair to cover it
Liam working with the amazing Corky and working on his float. I still remember when swimming was such a fight and he was so scared. He's an awesome little swimmer now.








Love where we live always

Causey Express

 Causey is such a beautiful place and is a lot quieter and fewer people than Pineview for sure. We loaded up the kayaks and paddle board and off we went. We paddled out for a bit then decided to tie us all together so we could just float in peace. Liam wanted to paddle on his own but can't quite keep up so he stays tied to the paddled board as the caboose.








Our warm days feel numbered now that school has started so we're making the most of them

Fair Week

 Getting up to the fair parade is more of a juggle now that the kids are older but we are still doing it. The kids love getting the candy and Matt's parents are always good to save us a space. Then we grab food and wander the fair before heading home.



Then another night we head up after school and go to the rodeo. It's fun to have my family come up to do some things with us. We don't see them as much as we would like for sure.



Here's to another year of the Box Elder Fair & Rodeo
