FARM DAYS 2012

This is another post from over a year back now.  We had a really fun time enjoying our first official Pearson FARM DAYS.  There were plenty of activities for the young and old cowboys at heart, like starting out with helping the mother duck with her ducklings trying to nudge them over a large pipeline in the field.  There were activities such as lopping sheep tails, roping cattle, Branding, dehorning and castrating the cattle (eww-)!  Steer riding errr I mean those men TRYING to ride the steers.  The kids also tried their hand at riding calfs- and Grandpa used his expertise to rope the grandkids, of course!  Between Cameron’s Farm and Grandpa’s Ranch- we sure covered all the bases of what Farm Days are all about.  We spent the morning at Cameron’s Farm and then headed to Grandpa’s Ranch where we ate tin foil dinners and yummy treats like white chocolate popcorn, cow pies, licorice ropes, cow chips and punch bags and Dutch over cobbler!  Yum Yum!

FALL, DON’T LEAF!

We have loved this year’s Fall season.  What beautiful weather we’ve had in this part of the world!  So many great sunsets.  I’m a sucker for a great sunset.  I used to hike up to the top of the Bountiful Hills in my teens and early twenties, right before dusk, just to get a great view of the stunning Utah sunsets we have here.  I found this darling poem today.  I loved it, and thought I’d share.

HALLOWEEN 2013

I don’t have much to say about this year’s fun and enjoyable Halloween.  Alyssa had her parade at school that Todd and I went to.  We saw her for about…oh 45 seconds and then she was off dragging her leg like a true Zombie Cheerleader.  She practiced that leg drag for a month!  Tyson and his friends enjoyed dressing up, even though they’re “Sevies” this year.  They had fun trick or treating and attending neighborhood haunted houses.  Alyssa went trick or treating with a friend- so Todd and I ordered take out and enjoyed dinner while taking turns answering the door.  It was a good night and the weather was perfect for our
