Soccer Photos

I never posted Quinn's soccer photos. Or  gave them out. Money and time well spent. Life is busy, and sometimes my best intentions get pushed to the side. 

Quinn was not the most cooperative. And lucky me, I ended up in the team photo. 

Well, here they are. Four and half months later. :-).  Oh and they are photos of photos. Nothing but timeliness and quality around here.

Fair 2013

We love the Utah State Fair. Sure, it is dirty and expensive, but it is always a good time. This year the rainy weather forced us to cancel our plans more than once, and it was almost looking like we were going to run out of chances to go. 

Luckily, on the last Friday around 4:30, the rain stopped and we hopped in the car and headed down. It was pretty empty, which made it pretty awesome. I think the continuous rain that day scared people away, and we had the place practically to ourselves. 

Quinn LOVED the fair. And it was so much fun to go with her. She loved the animals, the science area they had this year, the fake farm, and the food, but she especially loved the rides!  She is such a daredevil. She would have gone on every ride if she was tall enough. 

We went on the big yellow slide twice, and she begged to go on it a third. She wanted to go the big hammer flipper doodle thing so bad. Next year, we might have to buy her a wrist band for unlimited rides. She was also legitimately 36 inches tall- no lagoon shoes or big hair needed. 

And, the skies stayed clear and the weather was a perfect t-shirt and jeans temperature.  It was a great afternoon at the fair!

Why?


Having some trouble getting photos onto my blog.... Why is this photo moving????  It is a series of photos that blogger has made into a stop animation. It is creeping me out.

Nana's Birthday

This year we went up Milcreek Canyon for my Nana's birthday celebration. Quinn called it the jungle, and then a garden, before settling on canyon. We probably need to get out of the valley a little more often. :-)

We had a lovely dinner, a delicious cake, and fabulous company. 

We just love Nana to pieces and we were so happy to get to do something so fun with her on her special day!
