She was just born this year. We always have a big BBQ at my aunt's house to celebrate all of them. Here are some pictures.

Green Family Reunion

I thought it might be fun to post some of our pictures from the Green Family Reunion. We had a lot of fun. They had a horse shoe competition. JD & my Dad were on a team and they WON! Amazing, I know. They won $14 to spilt. It was kind of fun to watch everyone play.

Summer Baby Quilts

Just this last week I got really ambitious and started sewing all of my blankets together. I completed 4 receiving blankets and my rag quilt.











I also started my truck quilt/bumper pad. I have all of the dump trucks done and I just started the tractors. I will post a picture of the finished product later, but I posted a picture of the book so you can kind of see what it is going to look like. I just love it. It has to be one of my favorite quilts that I have made yet. It was a lot of cutting and piecing together, but I have really enjoyed doing this one. AND no I am not pregnant. I am doing all of these fun projects for future kids that I hope to have.

Lagoon

I went to Lagoon with my family on July 20th. My family goes every year, but I usually don't go. I am glad I went with them this year. It was a lot of fun. I wish JD could have come with me. It was so much fun watching Boston and Kayden ride the rides. Boston didn't like some of them and others he loved. We hung out in the Kiddy Land for most of the morning and then we went to the big rides. By the end of the day Dustin and his friend Spencer just insisted that I go on the Sky Coaster with them. So who do you think they went to, my DAD. He told Dustin that he would pay to see me go it because he didn't think I would. So what do you think they did. Yep, that's right, they bought me a ticket so I couldn't back out. We went on it at the end of the day and what a rush. It made me really nervous on our way up to the top. Then they counted us down and Dustin pulled the rip cord. The initial fall was quick and really fun. Once the cord caught it was smooth sailing and I really enjoyed it. I honestly thought my heart would have stayed at the top more than it did. The fall happened so quick I don't think I let it build up enough to stay at the top. I am glad I went on it and I would probably go again. We didn't leave until 10:00 pm. So it was a long fun filled day at Lagoon. Here are some pictures from the big event.

Rock Crawling Competition

JD & Stewart entered the Millard County Old School Rock Crawl again this year. It was a lot of the fun. It was HOT! Which was so nice since last year it rained and it was so cold. JD competed in the stock class and Stewart competed in the Legends class. It was a 2 day competition. I have a lot of video from the competition, but it is not completed yet. So I am just going to post some of the fun pictures.
