Our visit to Idaho...

Last week Makenna and I got a chance to go visit my sister up in Weston, Idaho. We went with my Mom, Sister-in-law, and niece and nephew. On our way up we stopped at Treehouse Museum in Ogden. It was a lot of fun for the kids. When we got up to Idaho, the kids (especially my nephew Matt) were so excited to see the farm, where my sister lives. We got to stay the night and spend the day together. Thanks Alise for such a fun time!!

Giving the baby a checkup!

Aren't these three kids the cutest!



Makenna hanging out on the tractor.



Makenna wanted a picture with the cows!



The kids had fun sliding down the slide and catching the bar, they were pretty good at it too!



This is such a fun swing set. It is big enough for us grown-ups too!



Going shopping at IFA. Matt had to have his Jon Deere T-shirt and Makenna looked so cute in the pink cowgirl hat!

Strawberries & Peas!!

Well, we had a really good crop of strawberries this year. I'm so happy about that cuz strawberries are my favorite thing to get from the garden! I went out to pick a "few" strawberries the other day and I had to keep sending Makenna inside to get another bowl cuz they were filling up so fast. Not only that but I picked about this many the week before. I ended up making a few batches of strawberry jam.

We also had a pretty good crop of peas. Dallin and I spent the other night taking all the peas out of the pods so that we could freeze them for future use!!
