A Little Behind

It might be obvious that I have been a little busy, but I don't want to forget any of the fun we have had this summer, so here it is. We had the perfect weather on the Fourth of July and Markessa was in her first parade, practicing her pageant wave (ha ha) thanks to Grandma :). She got to throw candy with Rachel, Cidnee and Grace in the Farr West parade. Grady and I watched for them and gathered all the candy we could, but since Markessa taught Grady to be so generous he was giving it all away to our parade neighbors. Then we went to the carnival where I spent $2.50 on a snow cone to watch Markessa dump it out before she even got one taste. A good 30 minutes was more than enough for mom and we headed home for naps.

More Fun

Cold Springs Fish Farm

Wow I lived in North Ogden for 12 years, but never knew about our little fish farm. Tia, Zack, Carter and Mya met us and within no time we caught four fish. Markessa was more into feeding the fish than catching them. Grady loved every minute of it.

Mommy's Little Helper

Markessa is such a good little helper. I decided I better take advantage

of the offers to help before she stops offering.

The Tree House

We loved the Mesa art museum in Arizona, so it is no

surprise that we love the Tree House here.

Happy Mother's Day

Aunt Katie was such a sweetie to help Markessa make me a Mother's Day treat. Markessa gave it to me and I set it down to walk Kate out and when I came back Markessa said. "Here's your treat Mommy (now it is half eatin.)" I laughed so hard.

Welcome to the Country

We are still alive and well and livin in the country. Marriott-Slaterville that is. If that didn't get any more country I don't know what would. The kids are lovin it and we spend most of our time outside.
