The Fair...

We spent the day at the fair...
We had so much fun it was hard to leave...
We went home dirty, tired and ready for a hot shower and our Beds!
Maizie was called out of the crowd to take part in the "Magic Show"
She Ripped up a paper into little pieces...
Sprinkled fairy dust...
She Worked her Magic and Pulled out this paper Necklace!
And was paid for helping!
Maizie and Millie would run from one ride to the next... All Smiles!
McKinnley, Maddi and Kade rode the Big rides... until McKinnley got sick and let her lunch loose... Then the little rides were more her thing!
We went to the Alligator Show and the Kids got to hold 2 Alligators!
It was such a Great Day/Night! We Loved every Minute!
Highlights...
Funnel Cake
Cold Drinks
McKinnley feeling Better
Dancing to the Music
Heath working the Ferris Wheel
"4"ticket Haunted House (robbery)
Watching Maizie work the stage
Singing and dancing with the Band
Watching all the Crazy People
Be Together!

Sunday Afternoon...

In Dwelling, live close to the Ground
In Thinking, keep it Simple
In Conflict, be Fair and Generous
In Work, do what you Enjoy
In Family Life, Be Completely Present!
Tao Te Ching
These are the Moments!
We were sitting in sacrament meeting when I noticed Millie had red bumps on her hands and as the time passed her little hands and feet began to swell. Heath took Millie out and the rest of the kids and I waited out the meeting then we all headed home to get Millie Checked out. We were told she had hives and it was nothing a little benadryl couldn't handle. So home we went...
After the benadryl a nap and a little time Millie was much better. So we took a family drive.

We found this house that was empty and for sale right on the water. We took a self helped tour of the backyard and enjoyed the beautiful trees, water and views.






I was always told: Leave it better than you found it....
We did just that,
We Filled this back yard with LOVE!

It's Great to be a Florida Gator!

Heath took Kade and I to one of Florida's Biggest Games of the Year...
Florida vs. Georgia...
It was Amazing what we saw as we walked to the stadium.
Only in Florida?
Hot Dog venders on every corner

Foxy Outfits... Foxy Hair!


It was so Fun to be on a Date with My Two Boys!
The views were Gorgeous! The weather was Great!
The Hot Dogs and Coke were Yummy! And the Gators Won!




We got decked out in our Orange and Blue...
But our Outfits weren't half as Cool as the other Gator Fans!

You got to have Big Horses and lots of Police for the Rowdy Southerners!
IT'S GREAT TO BE A FLORIDA GATOR!

Oh what a day!

Shannon and I piled these 2 little Monkeys in the car and were off to run some "Special Errands"
After Business was done we went and got 5 Guys Burgers and Fries
then off to enjoy lunch on the beach.
The weather was Perfect... and the food Delish... And the Company Top Notch!
Miss Millie and Nolan

Courage is Simply the Willingness to be Afraid and Act Anyway...
Together we can Move mountains!
(And if the mountains don't move... we can scare anyone in the way with these faces!)


It was a Yummy Afternoon!

The Zoo

We went to the Zoo with our Favorite Buddies... We Loved feeding the Giraffe...
The Giraffe wasn't a bit afraid to come right up to us and eat out of our hands.
Thanks for the rides... It was delightful! We must plan another outing soon!
