NICE GET AWAY

Our little Cow Girl!

Enjoying the beautiful weather. It was so nice!

Ellie and Billy

Our little cow girl got to ride a horse all by herself. Joel was a nervous wreck the whole time, Ha! Jason was nice enough to take El on quite the horse ride. Ellie could have gone around and around all day if we would have let her. She kept saying she wanted to go faster and kicking the horse on the sides, luckily for us her kicks weren't hard enough to have an effect and she was riding a really good horse. :)

Being 8 months pregnant in the middle of August is definitely not something I would recommend. With the temperatures being high and a little humidity, I told Joel I needed to get away and enjoy some cooler weather. We were fortunate enough to visit Joel's older bro and family in Joseph City, AZ once again and escape some of the heat. Not to mention have a little fun too! Thanks again Jason and Family, Its always fun spending time with you guys!

GIRLS LUNCH

Its always so much fun getting together with family. All of us girls were able to get together for my Aunt Carolyn's birthday and have a nice lunch.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Aunt Carolyn, we love you!

FARMER GIRL

One of Ellie's favorite things to do at the "Farm" is feed the chickens. She absolutely loves the way the chickens follow her and come running when she calls for them.
Its so funny to watch her take charge and pick them up like they are still baby chicks, which is obvious that they are not. Shes definitely turned into my little farmer girl and I love it!

WARDROP REUNION

Let the tournaments begin! We split into 4 teams and had a fun day full of various games. Unfortunately "Team yellow" was stuck with both Tarryn and I (the two prego girls) they just counted us as one, Ha, sorry team:)

Soccer was a little challenging for me, so Ellie and I just stood in the middle of the field, Ha! We definitely cheered on our team though! That's Kyley's FIANCE in the middle. He got to join in on the fun, Congrats you two! Welcome to the family Broc.

Volley ball was my favorite, but I can't say I helped out my team that much. Wouldn't say its one of my stronger sports. We were able to beat one of the four teams, so that says something, right?:)

"GG" and Grandpa-great enjoying some yummy ice cream while watching the events.

Swimming fun with Aunt Ky and "Ganma"

"Bathing Beauty"

The boys all played a mean game of water basketball. It was a blast to watch!

We love the pool!

NEWPORT BEACH

Watching the kite flyer's

Ellie wasn't too thrilled to go in the freezing cold water with aunt Ky. The waves were a little intimidating to her this year.

Too cute! These cousins love each other!

Getting buried in the sand... so much fun!

This year was a little cooler than most, so unfortunately playing in the water wasn't as inviting as usual. We still had a great time playing in the sand and enjoying the view. We filled this play pool with warm water so the girls could enjoy it. It was like there very own hot tub on the beach. We had fun with all the family and friends that came and can't wait to do it again next year. Thanks for all the fun!
