Weekend in Salt Lake City

We went up to SLC to visit Pops and Marcia it was a great weekend. They took us to the Church Family History building were they are currently serving their mission. We walked around Temple Square and a few other places it was a lot of fun. The kids loved the waterfalls!!
The temple grounds are so beautiful this time of year-any time really.

Once again in front of water- I'm surprised I didn't go home with wet kids:)
We had such a great weekend we spent Friday with my Dad and Marcia and then we went up to Kaysville to spent time with Brandon's Family. Brando's cousin was visiting from back east. Talmage and Laine and Sawyer had lots of fun with cousins and Aunts and Uncles and Grandparents-We found out their getting some new cousins on the Nelson side (Pretty exciting stuff) We had such a great time with family. We then went back down to SLC to go to church with my Dad and Marcia. It's pretty cool their ward is in the Joseph Smith memorial Building. They have a special missionary ward so pretty much every one is old and we were the only ones with kids it was crazy how noisy our kids sounded in Sacrament and they were being REALLY good! We had a pretty awesome weekend:)

Talmage's first day of Kindergarten!!!!

What a big kindergartner!!!!!Talmage's first day of school. Brandon and I took him to school and he was so excited to be there it didn't matter who went with him! His teacher is Miss Davis and he thinks she's great. He looks so cute and such a big boy!
We got to the school, Talmage walked in and got right down to business-meanwhile Mom is outside the door holding back tears because my baby is in kindergarten!
He got off the bus and Brando was there to pick him up and take him home on the motorcycle. Talmage was all smiles he loves school!!

Wayne County Fair

The theme for the fair this year was building family memories-So my Young Women came up with the idea of a family road trip. Brandon made us an awesome sign and we found the best car for the trip...... This is the sign Brando made for us "Building family memories mile by mile"
This beauty is the car we found for the trip-She's a beauty! "reminds me of our old station wag when I was REALLY young!" Notice Grandma on the roof HA!HA!
We had Dayton, Havie and Anya with us for the weekend it was a lot of fun having them for the parade-Talmage and Laine love to have cousins come and stay:) They got so much candy that it wasn't even funny-I guess that's what happens when you're the cutest kids at the fair!
They have a place for memorial flags for all the veterans in the war.It was really a cool thing.
All the kids wanted to climb on the big tractors they had on display, Brando wanted to climb up to but it was too hard with the back pack on! Poor Brando:)

Pioneer Day!

I know I am so slow at posting things this last month. I didn't want to skip over fun things so we'll go back in time for just a little bit. 24th of July in Bicknell-We had a parade and fun games at the park. Good Times! Talmage and his buddy Trevor walking in the parade-they were pretty cool with their guns!
