Preslee loves going on bike rides with us. This particular bike ride she was more preoccupied with her little phone and drink.
We loved our bike ride but every time we looked down at our legs we were getting bitten by a stinkin mosquito! I probably got about 8 on each leg. My Preslee came out of the ride untouched and that is what I care about. She is such a fun little Princess.

For Our 'End of the Summer' YW activity this year I wanted to do something really fun with the YW. We decided to take Front Runner down to SLC and go visit Temple Square.
We were about 10 min our of Cache Valley when one of the LA girls mom called and said that her girl wanted to go. There was no way we were not going to leave her. So I turned around and got her and I am so glad I did because she made it so much fun. But it did put us a little behind but that was totally ok.
After we toured the visitor's center we ate at 'The Gardens' that is on the same floor as 'The Roof' on the top floor of the JS Building. It turned out to be more expensive than I was told it would be but I just bit the bullet and ordered. Our YW budget may be feeling tight by the end of the year but we had such a great time. It was so nice to look and see the Temple. We were all so giggly during dinner and pretty much the whole time.
You could say that there were a lot of what we liked to call 'blonde moments.' Like trying to scan our paper front runner pass. My favorite was when we were going home and getting on Front runner Sister Miller got on the train and the doors closed. She turned to look at us through the window with a look of horror on her face. All the girls and sister Pritchard were freaking out and banging on the window thinking that she was going to leave without us. I said 'just push the button to open the door, the train shouldn't be leaving this early'. And it worked. We laughed so hard at our foolishness. I was about to pee my pants. I had to pause and cross my legs as I was climbing the stairs to the 2nd level of Front runner. We were all in tears.
There were so many little things like that. We are obviously not city girls and don't understand how all the UTA stuff works. But we are all a little more educated.
We really had so much fun and made some wonderful memories together. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful bunch of YW to work with. I wish they all could have come with us.
We ran out of time to get any pictures by the reflection pool or by the temple.
"Picnic" at First Dam
August 17th, 2012
I " " the picnic because there was no eating done by Preslee. Every time I tried to give her some sandwich she would just throw it to the ducks. She was much too busy to worry about such unimportant things such as food when there is playing to be done. When will I learn??!!!!! She loved this little outing.
These ducks were not afraid to get close. They even took the food right out of my hand.
We have bee working on the word 'Duck'. She is pretty good at saying it. I have some flash cards with pictures of animals and objects to learn. We HAD to bring the card with the duck on it. She just kept saying 'duck, duck, duck,..' over and over on the drive to First Dam while showing me the card. Such a fun kid.
Our Friend Grady.
"Duck, Duck, Duck." I think we will learn the difference between Duck and Geese at a later time.
Love feeding the ducks
Our little card. Such a fun... and hot... day.

Aggie Football Family Day
We are huge Aggie Fans Especially Football and B-ball. We love it. It seems we go to everything we possible can.
We hope Preslee will one day be an Aggie Fan or at least love the University of her choice as much as we love USU.
Stepping on to the new field. While they were installing this field this summer, Matt would watch it online live. To me it was the most boring thing one could do but he was enthralled. So this was a big moment for him.
The 20... the 10... Score!!!!!!!!!
I love this little girl so much
Matt is the best Daddad ever!
