The Big 7!!!!

Jason and I celebrated our 7th anniversary yesterday and celebrated by doing an overnighter at The Point - Squaw Peek. I always get a little stressed leaving my kids but thankfully I knew they were in good hands (thanks kiresten!!) We left Monday and had such a blast doing nothing. We stayed by the pool and ate and ate. Well I did most of the eating. There was no one their and it was nice b/c we had everything to ourselves. The next day I had a bright idea that we should hike Squaw Peek, thinking that would be my work out for the day. Boy, I did not know what I was thinking. Almost half was up I was ready to cry because every bone/muscle in my body was screaming at me. Talk about a work out. It was worth it in the end. When it came time to go home, I was really wishing I had more time. Needless to say, I was happy to see my girls.

Bowling

While we were at the cabin we decided to try bowling, the real thing. Ashlynn will tell you that playing bowling on the Wii is NOT the same as doing the real thing. She hated every minute of it because she didn't get strikes. So I guess she'll just stick with the Wii bowling style.

Corn Festival

Last weekend we headed to Grandpa John's cabin to enjoy the cool weather and go to the corn festival in Taylor. Taylor is such a small town and that made the festivities even smaller. They had a parade that consisted of 20-25 floats, all LDS except 1 beat up 1969 Volkswagen bus that had a handful of hippies promoting peace and love. I love that it followed the Taylor 4th ward primary float. Classic!! But the corn is the main reason we went. It's so good. They had a little carnival with jumpers, corn, bbq,and booths. The best part besides the hippies was the horseless rodeo. The kids got to go into the arena and chase chickens. Granted their were about 50 kids to two chickens. Not a pretty picture. Kids were crying left and right because they weren't the ones with the prize,,, the chicken. Thank heavens we lost!
