~4TH of JULY at the CABIN~




What a fun weekend we had! As usual it is always fun when the grandkids are there to entertain us but you add the Forth of July in Scofield to that and you can't help but have a BLAST!

The little ones are at the ages where they really are just so cute to watch. They say and do the funniest things...Little Cole snuggled up to Lisa and asked her so innocently if she "was startin to have kids yet" ... we both cracked up. It embarrassed him a little but he quickly recovered when we told him how cute we thought he was! Maddie and Abbie are both starting to put together full sentences that are so cute. It is amazing to just listen to them. They are so little but so SMART!


We spent some time at the" carnival" in Scofield if that is what you call it. The little ones rode the ponys and slid down the slides. They got to swing on the swings and Cole managed to turn around just at the wrong time and the swing hit him in the nose giving him a bloody nose. Of coarse he had on a very cute white pin striped button down shirt that from that point on was also sporting red poka dots! He is such a tough little guy, he didn't even cry, just put his head back and asked for a tissue!




We got tired of the party pretty quick and returned to the cabin for lunch. The kids needed a nap and the moms and dads needed a break! That night we had the all American BBQ complete with hot dogs and hamburgers and then to top it off Som'ores...so delicious! Thanks Garett and Lisa!


It was a great weekend filled with lots of fun and family. We missed Stephanie and Jon, Gage and Ali but, understand that they LOVE the 4th of July in Vernal. As hard as that is for some people to understand it isn't for me because I loved the 4th of July in Delta. There is just something about small town USA that you can't explain to people who aren't a part of that. It's GREAT! We missed them because they are so much a part of our family but, there are other weekends at the cabin to look forward to! We also missed Cambria and Sky who were in Disneyland. Now I am sure that given the choice they would have preferred to be at the Carnival in Scofield I mean come on who would really want to miss the ugliest 4-wheeler parade or the rubber duckie river float or the karaoke sing off or the ...lol

Thanks everyone for making the weekend so much fun!
