elk ridge days!!!

 elk ridge had some wonderful festives' last weekend and i think all 2000 people that live there came out to cheer for the parade.  the parade was so fun, decorate your bike, scooter, wagon you name it, and then we all walked  down the main street and people threw candy at us, it was so fun. tenley loved all the people waving and yelling at her!  we had a blast and all the kids did a great job decorating.  

 jo-jo let us barrow this wagon and the girls loved it.  it was a super hot day, little q's hair was drenched in sweat.
 thankfully at the end of the parade there were popcicles!!
 waiting to start!!

 later that night, spence hit some golf balls into the field and then the kids went hunting for golf balls!! when you are little everything is an adventure!  the kids explore all day in the pappys back yard, aka the mountain.  it is so fun to see them from the deck out exploring.
 sleepin on the deck!
 saturday morning they had a fireman's breakfast...we made all the kids walk/run the 1/2mile to breakfast and walk back home....are we mean....we just wanted them to get some energy out and be real hungry for breakfast??!! 
earlier that morning jo, kris and i set out for a run, we ran 3 1/2miles down the mt and then started making our way back up.  i couldn't stay with kris and jo they are super fast....which ended up being a good thing cause they got lost and run a road that ended up being a dead end and ran 8miles while i just ran 7.:) never been glad to be the slow girl, but that morning i was, a whole mile up hill for nothing is not my thing.
 eatin breakfast at the fire station, spence had to work so pappy and grandma subbed in to help! --i still don't know what i did without them for so long.
 after breakfast it was carnival time!!! and the only thing free were the balloons
yum cotton candy. tenley might look like her dad but she has my sweet tooth.  
q didn't want anything to do with the sticky stuff!

thanks mom and paps for a great weekend.  we missed the browns (josh was biking from slc to las vegas) but next year for sure!!

You look great and I love the outdoors for the kids and for running. You may not miss the big city too much with all that open beauty. Hope you're well.
