Hermiston Fair and Rodeo

This is one of my favorite times of year in Hermiston!  I absolutely love going to the fair and rodeo.  My mom and brother, Andrew, came up for it and I am so glad they did!  We spent Wednesday at the fair looking at the booths, animals, quilts, RVs, etc.  At night we went back to ride the rides and go to the rodeo.  Addy rode her first roller coaster... I was being an overprotective mom and was so nervous to let her go by herself.  Luckily, my mom was there to help me through that. :)  Addy LOVED it!  She ran right to the front car and got in, she had a huge smile on her face the whole time!  It makes me so much more excited to take her to Disneyland when she's 5!

We had a great time and it was fun that Addy enjoyed it so much!  My mom and brother left Thursday morning to drive home.
Tyler and I got a sitter and went back to the rodeo Thursday night with his family!

July 2013

Feeling a bit overwhelmed with catching up on blogging.  We've been too busy playing outside for me to want to sit at my computer and blog! :) 

July 2013
~We finally finished Addy's sandbox (Happy Birthday!)
~We celebrated the 4th
~We played with friends... a lot! 
~Our bunny, Nut Brown Hare/Daily, died.  Addy was heartbroken. 
~We finally started getting food from our garden!
~We went blueberry picking.
~Tyler and I "ran" a 5k together, with some of my girlfriends.  It was the ColorRun and it was a blast!
~We made a trip to Eugene to say farewell to the Apkers and hang out with the Smiths and Scotts.  We have missed them and thoroughly enjoyed being in their company. We slip-n-slid, ate yummy fresh produce, talked, had a girls night, the kids played and played.  It was a blast!
