Drive In Movie

One of the highlights of growing up in Sanpete is the Drive In Movie. My parents would take us there as children and I continued to go as I grew older with friends. It was a tradition to go during homecoming week when I was in high school. In highschool I had a friend that had a family business of a furniture store and he would load the back of the truck up with friends and couches. It was always so much fun. One of my favorite memories as a child was when we went there as a family to watch "The Lion King". During one of the parts when the hyenas jumped out my Dad jumped as well, honked the horn and turned on the windshield wipers. I thought that was the funnies thing. The kids loved going to the "outdoor movie that was bigger than our house". Braxton fell asleep on the drive down but Peyton made sure he was awake when we got there. Peyton was so excited he was shaking.
If you ever get the chance I would recommend this place to anyone. And while you are there, don't forget to get a hamburger. In-n-out have nothing on these guys.

Goodnight Peyton

For about 5 months Peyton has really liked me to lay down with him to go to bed. I tried to get out of it for a while but realized it made the process a couple of hours and I also really started to like it. He puts one arm under my neck and the other over my neck. He puts me in a nice little headlock. He likes me to kiss his cheek until he falls asleep. It usually only takes about 10 minutes. If I'm not home he goes to bed just fine but if he knows I'm around this is something that he won't go without.

County Fair

We visited the local county fair. The kids loved the rides, however I did appreciate Disneyland prices after that. We spent $30 for 15 mintues of fun and the kids were only able to ride 4 rides. Disneyland doesn't seem so bad anymore.

I know I am the mom but this is the cutest smile!
We thought we would get even 30 minutes of Dad's full attention without taking a call for work. No such luck!

Swim Day

I went and spent the day with my cousin Jennica this past week. She has 4 kids 5 and under. I don't know how she does it. We had a lot of fun letting the kids play. Braxton and Elisha had so much fun and were the best of friends.




My favorite was Jonah wanting to wear his snow boots. It made me laugh several times.
