Wheeler Farm

We went to Wheeler Farm while Lessley and the kiddos were visiting.

The kids ran around saying hi to all the animals, and we all had a picnic in the park.

There are tons of ducks and chickens roaming free around the farm, and Bella had a blast chasing them all around. That top picture with the rooster-- she actually caught it! Poor thing was just stunned and ran out of her arms as quick as it could. And that bottom picture.. she's totally sneaking up on the duck! Haha

 Oakley was so cute taking pictures of all the animals with her little camera

 (That's Bella saying "Mooooo!")

It was a fun little outing with the family.

Father's Day

Spent the day in Herriman together, grilling burgers and having fun like we always do. 

Happy Father's Day to the best Dads out there.

Memorial Day

We spent Memorial Day with the fam-- first at the Sanfords for a steak BBQ feast, then at the Norman's house for lots of playtime and dessert.
(When we got to Grandpa and Baba's house, Bella assumed that Oakley would be there, so she ran in the house all excited saying "Oak-ee! Oak-ee!" and when we broke the news to her that she wasn't going to be there, she cried her hardest cry.. the kind when she doesn't breathe for a minute. It was so heartbreaking, but so cute at the same time because she loves her cousin so much. So of course we took her to see Oakley afterwards, and then she didn't want to leave her side.)

(Bella painting my nails with chalk, and painting her toenails. She also painted Daddy's toenails, Grandpa's and even Max's.)

(Bella brought that placemat to us and said "Fort!" so Baba happily played in the little fort with her, and said it was the longest Bella has ever sat in her lap since she was a newborn.)

It was nice that everyone had the day off so that we could be together. 

We're unbelievably grateful for those who serve our country so that we can enjoy the freedoms that we do.

Mother's Day

We spent Mother's Day together in Herriman.

We had a BBQ outside and enjoyed the warm weather (teriyaki chicken burgers, broccoli salad, and fruit pizza were on the menu).
