Big kids go to school!!!!

Ogden temple open house

We barely made it up to the Ogden open house. Adam got held up at work and actually only made it for dinner!  We hit traffic and just barely got there in time. We met up with the awesome Green family. And had a great time touring the temple!  It was so beautiful!

Then we met up with Adam in SLC and had dinner. And the kids trashed a chilis!  It was awesome!!

Yard projects!

We had a French drain put in. A conduit for future garage. Trenches for sprinklers. Mac loved all the tractors!!!

Then we put in the pipes. The main blew once!  Oops!  But we got it all fixed and should be finishing it up this weekend!!

I'm tired!

One last hurrah!

We met up with cousins at a cool slash park!  They had a blast!!  Just snuck it in before school starts!

Macs bear camp!

Mac Loves setting up bear camp at aunt Jenns house!  

Garage project...done!

Adam and I got our garage floor sealed up!  It was a good project and we are glad to have a much cleaner garage floor!  Right at the end we were just finished. Mac decided to walk across it!  Oy veh!!! So we left his foot prints!

Visiting Aunt Jan and Uncle Jimmy!

We got to pop in and see my aunt jan and uncle jimmy!  Love them!!! It was so fun to see them it's been about 7 years!  Thanks for letting us come say hi!!

They loved seeing their cute puppy Molly. Who loved that the kids had snacks!  

These two bonded over their love of tractors!  :)

Joseph Smiths birthplace

We ran down to South Royalton today to see Joseph Smith's birthplace with the kids. There weren't very many people there today so that missionary offered to give us a golf cart ride down through the woods to see the other foundations. We had never seen them before so that was very fun plus the kids loved writing the golf cart!

It's a beautiful site down there and I enjoyed the little tour!  I adore the trees on the road up to the memorial. I miss trees!

This is an original bridge on the old turn pike road. They are pretty sure the rd ran from Boston to Montreal! That would be slow going!

Tractor Mac meets Mac

Today we ran across the cute little farm stand. The farmer came out to chat and we explained him how much Mac loves tractors. He offered to show Mac his tractor and his tractor turned out to look just like tractor Mac!  We love the children's book series Tractor Mac by Billy Steers. It was a beautiful farm in the produce was amazing I wish we had something like that near us!  Either that or I need to become a farmer!  And he gave me a duck egg to try!  

Nona vs Mac

They've met each other's matches!
