Draper Temple

For our July Temple trip we went to the Draper Temple!

We did sealings and then we were able to sit in
the Celestial room for a little bit and talk.
It was a lot of fun and a beautiful day!

Sister's Day!

Today is Sister's Day!I love all of my sisters so much and I wanted
to make them a little something to show
them how much I care about them so
I made chocolate dipped pretzels!

The pictures are not very good because they
are from my phone. It was really fun to make them!I Love You Lisa, Cammie, Brittany and Kendra!
Happy Sister's Day!!

Pioneer Day

We spent Pioneer Day weekend at my parent's house in Mendon.
Both of my sisters and their husband and kids were there too.
We started the weekend out right by jamming to some Rock Band.
Justin and Dan really get into it!

On Saturday morning we went to Mendon Days!

Lydia was pretty excited about the celebrations
and being able to be with Grandpa!

They had a pig, chicken and bunny chase.

I kind of felt bad for the little pigs becausethey had tons
of little kids chasing them all around the field.Justin did the grown up pig chase
but they were only able to use one hand.

Nathan did the bunny chase but I think
he had more fun chasing the other kids around.
He is the little guy in the middle of the
group with red pants and a white shirt.

Then they had a parade that

started at noon. It was pretty hot!

I like this picture Brady took because
it shows the family in the reflection.

Brittany, Lydia and Justin at the parade.

Dan, Nathan and Cammie at the parade.

They were spraying everyone with
water and I still got wet even though
I hid behind the blanket.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I had to put these next two pictures on
to show where Lydia gets her tongue.

I think it runs in the family.

Rick, Julie, and Charlie

I am way behind on posting what has been happening. Two weekends ago Brady's parents came up to visit. It was a lot of fun. We did some shopping for the Peterson Family Reunion that is coming up and we had to go to Charlie's because it is tradition! And it is delicious!

This is Julie and Rick enjoying their ice cream at Charlie's. Rick even had a Gift Card there!
Julie ordered the "baby" scoop and did not realize that it was really going to be a baby scoop!
That was how much ice cream she got. It really filled her up.
After ice cream we went and walked around the Cache Valley Mall. While we were there Julie discovered how much she likes Maurices. She found a lot of cute outfits. It was really fun helping her find different things and then seeing everything she tried on. For dinner Rick took us to El Toro Viejo. I love Mexican food. The weekend was a lot of fun and we were excited to have them come and visit! We love you guys!

A Weekend with Brad & Kendra

Brad and Kendra came up and stayed with us last weekend. They came up later on Friday night so we stayed home and watched a movie at our place. Saturday morning Brady bought us McDonald's and then we went to Willow Valley Park to play some frisbee!

Brady has a boomerang frisbee that was not cooperating so it kept getting stuck in the trees. I think that we spent more time throwing his shoes up into the tree to knock it down then we actually did playing frisbee. It was pretty funny though and I am sure the people that drove past us got a good laugh watching four adults throwing shoes in the tree!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

After frisbee we went and walked around Downtown Logan and looked at all the sidewalk sales. Brad found some music for him to play on his sax and Kendra bought a book!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then we went and saw...


It was a pretty good movie but all of us thought that it was talked up too much. These little guys definitely saved the movie! They were hilarious!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Later that night we went to a demolition derby! Kendra had never been to one and this was a first great derby. It was one of the best ones I have been too!

The trucks are the best! They get into it a lot more than the cars do! The lime green one to the left is my parent's neighbor Landon. He ended up winning (dominating!) the truck heat! It was great fun!
Thanks for coming guys! We had a blast and hope you come back up again soon!

Independence Day Weekend!

The fourth of July weekend was a lot of fun for us. My cousin Bradford and his wife Kayla came to visit my Grandma from out of town so we were able to spend some time with them. I had not seen Bradford in a long time so it was the first time that Brady and him met and it was the first time that we got to meet Kayla too. They are such a fun couple!

On Friday night we went to La Beau's with Mom and Dad to get a shake and then we headed over to a church parking lot where we had blankets saving our spot for Utah State's firework show. Bradford and Kayla met up with us there to watch. The fireworks were pretty good but the traffic to get home was crazy!
On Saturday we all went on a hike in the Wellsville Mountains. (No worries, there were no near rolling over Yukons this time.) Hollie even got to go. You can tell she is a herding dog by the way that she has to go to the front of the hikers to the back constantly to make sure that everyone is still there. She loves the destination of this hike because we end up at a lake, that is more like a murky pond. She jumped in the water as soon as we came up the hill.

After the hike we went to the Cache Valley car show and walked around. Dad had us all choose a color of car and a year before we were born and then we had to find a car in that color and made in that year.
I found mine right off the bat!

Then Kayla found hers...

Then Brady...

Then Bradford (His color was orange and his year '57. Copper is the closest he could find in his year so we let it pass.)

Then Dad found a car that looked like his first car named Chester!

Brady wanted to win the car they were giving away which was a 1967 Pontiac GTO (Yes, I had to look it up.) so we all went to see if any of our tickets would be drawn.

The Cruisin' Parade is my favorite part of the car show because you get to see all the cars but you get to sit in the shade in stead of walk around in the sun in order to see them.

On Sunday we went over to Grandma Rowley's house for a BBQ. It was fun to play horse shoes and lasso golf.
Grandma always makes sure there is tons of food so we all left stuffed! I had Monday off but Brady had to work so I spent the day cleaning up the apartment and reading one of my books! It was a great weekend!
