Cornbellies 08

We discovered Cornbellies last year and had so much fun that we decided to make it a tradition. So this is our 2nd annual Cornbellies trip.





We planned on going on Tues. but Anson had a mishap at school so we put it off for another day cause he was not feeling up to it. He ran into another kid and they hit heads in the recess line up. NICE, just in time for Halloween.

They LOVED playing in the corn

Anson would not get off these.

and milking

It was great weather and we had our usual blast! Dad couldn't come with us so we left Mitchell with him.

Disneyland!

I finally have something to blog about. I know you have all been waiting. We left Mitch with my mom and took the older 2 on a vacation. We did 3 very full, hot, l o n g days in Disneyland and California Adventure. We did make the mistake of taking them on their first ride to Space Mountain and that did it for Morgan. She cried on just about every ride after that if we had to go into a building.

We ran into alot of people we know. The most exciting was my cousin that I have not seen in about 10 years. That was CRAZY! We also saw Mark Black and his family, the Walls and the Olsens were there too. Aubri came on Sat. so we just missed her. We also ran into my sister-in-laws family. We saw alot of BYU shirts and hats. It was not crowded the first day but the other 2 were crazy. I keep using that word, I know. It was about 90 degrees and poor little Morgan had a hard time keeping up so we rented her a stroller. (she came with an ear infection and congestion and really not feeling up to par).

This was Morgan's favorite ride.

I also got to meet up with my old friend Pammy who lives in the area. Thanks for comming Pammy, it was great to see you and you haven't changed a bit. Luv U

For Sale

The other night Morgan just happened to pass by Lindy Jones who was out selling rocks. Aaron kindly bought 2 rocks from her and ever since then it's been nothing but "can I sell... " So today I said she could maybe sell otter pops when Anson gets home from school. Well, apparently she couldn't wait and this is what I found.



She got some paper and made herself a sign. Don't ask me what it says. She gathered some rocks together and sat on the front porch steps and waited.



This is a closer look at her sign. Yes, that is a raisin box all taped up with stickers to her paper. Maybe that was her incentive? hummmmm

My thought for the day...

Daily thought:

Some people are like slinkies-- not really good for anything, but they bring a smile to you face when you push them down the stairs.

The gawky stage

So Sat. Anson lost one of his front teeth that was BARELY loose, by catching it on the trampoline net. The other one that was hanging on by a thread didn't come out until Monday. I just finally held him down, it was driving me crazy. So here is the new look of my 1st grader. Yes we are entering the gawky stage.

Done!

Well if you can't brag on your blog then where can you do it?

I have FINALLY finished Morgan's bedspread! It's been over a year in the making of carrying material swatches around in my purse all over the valley, trips to SLC to find the right color and size of rick rack and totting my kids out to Lindon to my mom's house where we put it up on quilting boards to hand stitch the strips. (Thanks for helping on that part mom)

I must say that I am quite pleased at the out come. I will now remove the very old blanket that sits on her bed (it was mine when I was in HS). She probably wont need it until November but at least I am now prepared for the winter. Finally.

4th of July

So I was going through my fotos and found the 4th of July ones that I never posted. Surprise surprise, I know July is now over. Earlier in the day we were at a BBQ at the Davidsons. Later we had fun over at the Jones for the show. We were making fun of Amy for organizing all the fireworks on a table, but who is surprised at that one. Luv ya Ame.

don't ask cause I don't know

I love this cause I caught Morgan falling into the pool

waiting for it to get dark
