fish rodeo

Let me start this post off by saying, I HATE FISH, they scare me to death!!!! Kyle thinks the fish rodeo is about the coolest thing ever so it is a must for us on the 24th!! Grace LOVED the water and was playing and running around, her and Kyle were splashing around, having a good old time, I was standing on the edge where the fish couldnt get me!!!
Then when they put the fish in, Grace had a cow!!! She wouldnt stand up so Kyle had to hold her and try and make her, but it just wasnt having it, her legs were as far away as she could get them! After awhile she finally stood in there but still wasnt to sure about it all, kyle caught a fish and this is as good as a smile as she would give!! This is really how she felt about the whole thing!! There were some really big ones in there, hopefully next year Grace will be a little more into it and try and catch them. Even thought i do not like fish it was alot of fun watching Grace and it will be even funner when we have all 3 of the girls in there next year!!

sickness and a HUGE frog

On Saturday night Grace got SICK!!! She threw up 4 times on 4 different sets of sleeping bags and blankets!!! (Kyle washed all day on Monday!) We Thought it was from the cheese balls but then she started running a fervor and was just sick all day!! So when we got home Sunday night the little girls had it, it was sad, they just wanted to be held and were just fussy!! Then they started feeling better on Monday night then Kyle got it!!! Now today i have had it and it stinks!!! Hopefully there will be no more sickness in out house for awhile cause 2 sick babies, a sick 3 year old, and a 25 year old sicko does not make for a fun week!!!

My 3 little sickos!!!

On Monday we had a little visitor out back, a huge frog!!! We have this frog and a HUGE lizard that live out back, the lizard is so fat that when he runs he waddles!!! Grace is a good little tomboy and was chasing him everywhere trying to catch him in her Princess dress!!! Sometimes I feel like we live it Jurassic park, there are all kinds of snakes, frog, lizards and other scary animals that i could do without living in my back yard!!

Gibbs Reunion

This years Gibbs family reunion was a great one!! We only see each other once a year unless there is a wedding so i always love getting together with them!! Sherrie did it this year and the theme was poker, we played Bingo, Farkle, Greed, Yahtzee, and the ball throwing golf game, we just called it dingle ball game!! It was alot of fun and we are all competitive so it always makes for a interesting time!! We had good food , good company and no fights, what more could you ask for at a family reunion!!


Ok, we did have one fight but it was for a chair in the game family fruit basket!!! Shelly and Jerrica were the last people so they wrestled for the last chair, i told you we are competitive!!! That was one of the highlights of the weekend!!Theses are the 1,140 cheese balls that Grace won, shelly really won them but gave them to grace, how nice!Other than the sleepless sick nights the weekend was alot of fun, im excited for next year when our family is in charge!!

24th of July

The 24th of July is not the same if we are not in Marysvale, in all my life i have only missed one and i swore that would be the only 1 i would ever miss!!! Not that is is some great celebration but i love it, i love the 10 floats that are in the parade, the kids games that the little kids always starts a water fight, the fish rodeo, I just love everything about it!! Grace wasnt to into the parade, she liked the horses and the candy, but once she got a Popsicle thats really all she cared about!!!
Grace and her cute little flowers in her hair!!
Me and the girls all outside enjoying not sweating to death, oh Utah weather, what i would give to live there!!!

80's night

For Bunko this month it was 80's night!!! I got these awesome earrings that Grace loved and had to wear the night before i went!!
It was really fun and pretty much all of us were in our 80's clothes, side pony tails and all!!!

Rain

Last Monday, the 20th, it RAINED and RAINED!!!! All of us went outside to enjoy it, when i say all of us it was like everyone in the neighborhood!! There is usually no one outside till it is dark and a little cooler but when it rains everyone goes out to enjoy it!! Kyle was like a little kid out there in it, he and Grace stood out in it till it stopped! It has been a long time since it has rained that much here, I loved it!!
As you can see it was flooding into our yard, good thing Kyle hasnt made it to that side of the house yet!! Grace just walked back and forth in the gutter, it was pretty nasty water but she laid in it and splashed everywhere!! Here are a few of the neighbors out and about! Notice our beautiful grass, it is getting full and thick, it is looking really nice out there!!
