Cherry Hill

The First week in August we took a trip to Cherry Hill. This is my very favorite of all Water Parks, so I was probably even more excited than the kids. Here is Kambree and Gracey chillin' in the Lazy River.They have a fantastic Kiddie Pool.


They have these old fashioned shops all the way around the lazy river. They are so cute and at random times the town "explodes" and water goes everywhere.


Kambree and Gracey loved these Blue Dragon slides. They have fog and lights inside so it's like you have enterd a dragons belly.


Using a mat to gain speed!!


Sword in the Stone and two buff maidens.



Kort and Albanie getting their tubes to hit the Cardiac Canyon

Ahhhh...don't hit the waterfall Albanie!!!!

Entering the BLACK HOLE
This is my favorite slide ever. I think that I went on it about 20 times that day.


I had to help kambree get unstuck a few times



Some pretty cute little pirates

Pope Family Camping

Last weekend was the Pope Family Camping trip at Willow Flat. I don't have any details about it because I wasnt there. Kort had to work and so he and I stayed behind. I must say that we had a fabulous weekend. While he was at work I think that I got more accomplished here than I have all summer. He got off around four and we headed to Logan. We did some school shopping, had dinner at Wingers, and went to a late night showing of Star Trek (which I thought I would hate but I LOVED it). The others seemed to have a good time camping. Here are a few random photos that Kambree took. Cute Kieran

Dancing Queen

My little Kaisley just started dance. She loves to get all dressed up and her friend Teyha is in her class so she was really excited about that.

Rodeo Weekend 09

Rodeo weekend has once again come and gone. We took the kids to the rodeo with us Saturday night because Carson rode in the Muttin Bust. Other than that, it was the pretty much the same ol, same ol. Kambree and Kaisley loved the carny of course.

This caterpillare roller coaster was their very favorite.





Just can't go to the carnival without hitting the carousel.


Kaisley's all ready to hit the sidewalk sales

Some of our parade gang.



Kambree and Addie rode in the Big J's train on Friday night.


Waiting on the excitement!!

Jammin'

The girls and I made jam out of all the delicious raspberries that we picked out of Grandma Grace's garden. Kaisle did such a great job prepping the jars.



They were both excellent smooshers. We did six batches of jam and it is soooooo yummy!!!
