Summer Fun

 This past week Kabree and I stayed with my parents to enjoy some summer fun with cousins out on the farm.  Kabree was in heaven.  Uncle Shawn took us to play with Shay's sheep everyday, we got to go and pet the horses everyday while helping feed and water them, we got to ride horses, play in the sand pile, ride the tractor, run through the sprinkler and of coarse have lot's of fun with cousins.

 How Kabree felt about getting off Cactus

JoAnn, Kabree and Makenna

  The first day we were out in Arbon was lots of fun, Kabree and I went on a walk up to the barn with Jessica, Wyatt and Makenna.  We played with the Shay's sheep, pet the horses, ran through the sprinkler at Larin and Jessica's and got to ride Cactus.  Kabree was very excited when I told her it was time to go catch Cactus.  She ran and grabbed her cowgirl boots and started hurrying to put them on.  Then she needed her hat too because cowgirls wear boots and hats is what she told Grandma and I : )!  When we got down to the horses she was a little upset at first when she realized we were not riding Pal, but once Captain Jack came up to her she was wanting to ride him.  We finally convinced her that Cactus is who she should ride, she wasn't so sure until she got on him, then she was hugging him and saying "Oh, Cactus, come on boy, yee haw".  Kabree loved riding and was very sad when it was time to get off.  Then the rest of the week she wanted to wear her cowgirl boots, even with her shorts : )!

Day 2

  The second day we were out in Arbon we rode the tractor with Grandpa Vance for a few hours.  In the afternoon we went out and played in the sand pile while Grandma did horse 4h.  We got very dirty so Kabree pulled her pants off and ran through the sprinkler the second we hit Grandpa and Grandma's lawn.  She thought it was the funnest thing ever to run in the water with her shirt on.  One funny thing was Kabree wanted to wear shorts in the morning and I told her she needed to wear pants because it was cold.  Well when she went with Shawn to feed the sheep she found mud and was laughing as she got completely covered in mud, thus getting changed into her shorts when we got back to the house.  She smiled and said "Shawn look, shorts", to which Shawn replied "Kabree looks like you one and got to wear shorts after all", she started laughing.  Some days I feel they all conspire against me ; ).

Defending their play house

  Heather and I came back out Saturday for some more Arbon fun.  We did a PB&J's and Kool-Aid picnic and played in the water all afternoon.  Both our Aunt Lauries came down to visit and hang out in the shade and watch the kids play.  Dad and Mom had their pool and sprinklers going and Jessica brought over her water slide and squirt guns.  The kids had a blast!  At first all the kids kind of thought the water was too cold, except Kabree she was the first one to run through the sprinkler and didn't stop until we drug her in to bath that night.  Justice did not enjoy the water very much until Jessica pulled out the squirt guns, then he thought it was pretty funny squirting everyone.  Wyatt wanted to check out the slide, he crawled over to it and tried crawling down it (Larin was right there with him so it wasn't bad).  It was such a nice day and fun to watch the kids have a blast, and just enjoy the sun while us ladies visited.
