Mom's Birthday

(this is for Kristen and Naomi too, because they were at Girls' Camp)

We went to wish Mom Happy Birthday and Joey Adams was there to put horses in the pasture. He asked who wanted to ride. Malia didn't want to have anything to do with the horse, she wouldn't even touch it.

Brittana has the wave down, just like a rodeo princess

Carter surprised us by getting on too. He was nervous, but the peer pressure won out.

There are so many weeds that the horses thought they'd died and gone to heaven.
Here's the birthday girl dishing up her vanilla chocolate chip cake (because she couldn't find the chocolate pudding).
Grandma and Grandpa stopped by.
Heyburn has a new 4-way stop and 15 mph zone by the new school. We would have driven right through it if there hadn't been vehicles in front of us.

It broke the porch window.

So when we got home from the reunion this is what we found.

4th of July

Of course we went to the parade. This is the Rupert West Stake float that Ethan, Kristen, and Naomi helped with: Amelia Earhart, Betsy Ross, George Washington, and...Elvis??

Ethan, Truman Peterson, and Wyatt were in the middle:

Kristen walked with the Young Republicans and threw lots of candy to us. Tiffany is in the background in a white shirt.

Here are the kids watching

Doesn't Naomi look glamorous?

Emmett...
...and Sierra are going to be in a play:
When we went to the river to watch the fireworks, Layne and Brittana were sitting on this branch that hangs over the water.
