Weekend Away

Last weekend we went to Star Valley to go visit Aaron’s grandpa and take the kids to the fair there. My kids love to go visit grandpa’s farm, I think Carson would be happy if we stayed all summer long. He loves learning about the old farm equipment, helping Grandpa change the water, riding on the 4-wheeler, and having Grandpa take him on tractor rides.

We spent one full day at the fair, the kids rode rides till we made them leave for dinner, and then they still begged to go back again for another hour. At about 7:30 we finally drug them back to Grandpa’s house.

This ride was the kids favorite. I was sure it would scare Carson, so I told him he was too small. He got mad and I kept trying to cheer him up and all he would do is say “ I want to do nothing! Only that one!” and point at the ride. I finally just let him go and he ended up loving it.

We took a short drive up to Cottonwood lake. So pretty, the water was turquoise. The kiddo’s already want to go back and bring a little boat next time.

Look at you blogging so promptly! very impressed! Looks like it was a fun trip and beautiful weather! I think Carson and Tanner would like to be Grandpa's roommates for the summer. Tan just got his first pair of cowboy boots and I told him he should go live in Star Valley because that's what everybody wears over there every day! Carson and Tanner would have a lot of fun! Not sure about Gramps though!
