North Park Ward Summer BBQ and Bike Parade

After driving back from Raft River we went to the ward Ice Cream Social and bike parade, they had games and face painting for the kids.

Check out the cool outfit Carter chose for the bike parade.
I love how cute Serena looks sitting on Jeffrey's lap.

Davis County Fair-Day 1


Our field trip today was the Davis County Fair!
The best part of the fair is that all of the kid activities we did were free!
Honk! Honk!
YeeHaw!
Serena would only hold onto me, not the horse!

Carter loved the sports complex where you shot basketballs, and threw the football and baseballs. He also sat and watched the whole Magic Show without moving. We have now seen this show at least four times and the jokes and tricks are the same, but still magic!

Serena wasn't so keen on the horsey ride, but endured. Aleeya did great, she grabbed the saddle like she knew what she was doing.

We spent four hours at the fair and still didn't get to see the animals, so I told the kids we would come back the next morning.

Cute messy faces!

Cheerios on the nose!
Thanks Serena for sharing your chocolate ice cream cone!

Aleeya is well on her way to eating by herself. She basically eats the same food we do and she likes to feed herself.

Chalk Creek Crew (CCC)


We went camping in Coalville on the Faye and Donna Dearden property off of Chalk Creek Road. We spent a delightful time with: Capp's, Hansen's, Roe's, Smith's and Wiseman's. In this group there were twelve adults and nineteen kids!

We set up camp on Friday afternoon and then wandered around, the kids threw rocks in the river and Steve Smith and Matthew Roe caught a fish. For dinner we made Dutch oven chicken, potatoes, beans, salad and two types of cobbler-yeah we know how to eat good! We also had S'mores, that is a requirement of camping.

An exciting way to pass the time was for the former cheerleaders of the group to re-live their glory days. Jamie and Shae were pretty impressive as they held Tauna high above their heads! Of course, then the kids wanted to have a turn!


Our family all slept in a tent. We zipped the sleeping bags together so that Taylor and I and Carter and Serena were all snugly together. Aleeya was in the pack-n-play. The only thing I would do differently is put her next to me, I kept getting up and going across everyone to make sure she wasn't cold. She had on plenty of clothes and a hat and stayed warm the whole night.

Saturday was more running around for the kids and breakfast burritos for our fabulous meal.

The weather was perfect the whole time! A slight wind on Friday to keep it cool and the bugs away, no rain and not too cold. We plan to make this an annual event
