Our Big Utah Adventure--Kaysville

The Lochhead Family Reunion: Moovin' and Groovin'

Each morning began with a pancake toss by Rick. A tradition taken from Rick's Uncle and continued in our home.
A farm day: complete with outfits and a special visit by some animals such as goats, ponies, chickens, ducks, etc.
Chrissie and Lily enjoying the family talent show.
A Pioneer themed doll party: with handmade dresses (made by Rick's mom) complete with aprons and bloomers, and handmade dolls. The girls got to churn butter and help Grandma make bread. And also got to sit around with their Great Grandma Walker and learn about how things were when she was a little girl.
The Fiesta: not much explanation needed.
Movie Night: Outdoor movie with light up toys and popcorn.
Matthew at the Carnival: with lots of fun games and prizes.

There were lots of other fun activities in between.
And of course we ended the week with a family dance...naturally.
We had so much fun in fact that I'm needing a good week to recover from our vacation.

19 weeks!!! I would love the luxury of waiting that long to tell people! haha. I show at ten weeks for heaven sake! It's terrible :)
Oh what it would be like to be tiny and thin like you.
It's okay, I guess...someone has to have 11 and a half pound babies I guess!? Yikes.

MY goodness!!! Our family reunions PALE in comparison. Wow, you guys pull out all the stops - HOW FUN!!! I especially love the fiesta picture. And the outdoor movie night, what a great idea. It looks like you've had a couple fun adventures with your family and Rick's.

I didn't know your sister has a ranch - how cool is that.

And I love the post solely devoted to John Deere :)

And the pictorial of Chrissie and her cousin in bw is beautiful, by the way.
