Pony Express Days...

Eagle Mountain had their city celebration this past week, called Pony Express Days. On Saturday, Bridger and I went to the parade...Bridger loved it! It was actually a pretty long parade, I was surprised! I think my favorite thing to see in the parade was the missionaries in a golf cart...how great is that?! Bridger got a balloon in the shape of a flower and thought it was the greatest. These pics are from the parade...my neighbor took them and they turned out really cute! We also took Bridger to the carnival Saturday evening. We took him on a few rides, but I think his fave was the boats, because he could drive them and ring the bell on the boat. Every time he would pass by us, he would say, "I'm driving the boat." I think he had a great time and it was so fun for us to see how excited he was about it!

Island Park...

Josh, Bridger and I went to Island Park this past Thursday through Sunday. My dad and his good friend Bart were making their annual Henry's Lake fishing trip, so I decided to come along, since my grandma and her husband were up there. We had a great time and it was nice to get out of the house. Island Park is so beautiful right now, I just love it...it is so peaceful. Bridger had a great time amusing Grandma and Grandpa (my grandma's husband, Merlin). We took Bridger to Big Springs, where there are usually an incredible amount of huge fish, but for some reason there were only about 4 fish we saw...but Bridger was okay with that. We brought popcorn to feed the fish, but they weren't interested, however the seagulls were and Bridger loved this! He constantly threw out little handfuls of popcorn until it was all gone. Josh also had a great time fishing. I am posting a pic of him and JD with some fish Josh caught...sorry the pic is probably a little gross to some of you! Anyway, it was a very nice weekend!

Shout out to Josh...

Our neighbor actually works with Josh, and recieved the Medal of Merit as well...

Yesterday, Josh's work had an award's banquet. We were notified he would be recieving an award, but didn't know what it was for. So, we were sure to RSVP and found a sitter and were able to go and enjoy a nice dinner. When the awards came around, we were very excited to find out Josh recieved an award for Medal of Merit. It is a pretty neat award, so way to go Josh!

Just Like Daddy...

Hate to break it to ya Bridger, but you might get made fun of at work if you bring a blankie...lol!

Okay, first of all...sorry I have slacked off on updating my blog lately...I will do better! Anyway, yesterday while I was getting ready, Bridger found Josh's work shirt, so he put it on. He told me he was going to work. He also found some of Josh's old boots, had me help him put them on, hopped on his little bike and said, "Bye, I'm going to work." It was so cute! He wanted to be just like daddy!

The Tulip Festival...

Bridger and I went to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point today, with my friend Jenni and her little girl Amelia. Because of the crazy weather, the tulips weren't up very much yet...so they were not nearly as spectacular as they usually are, but it was still nice! We had a great time and enjoyed being out in the warm sunshine! Bridger really enjoyed running around! At one point, he saw a bird and was in total awe of it. He walked up to it very slowly, and then kept telling the bird to "come on!" He was sad when it finally flew away. As we were leaving the bird area, a couple of ladies walked past us and Bridger was telling them about the bird and running to show them where it was at...so funny! Later, in the Secret Garden there is a fountain. Bridger loved this (he loves it every time we go there)! Bridger and Amelia kept splashing their hands in the fountain; both were dripping, Bridger loved it but Amelia not so much by the end! Overall, it was so fun and it was great to be out with Jenni and Amelia too! (...There were so many fun pics that I decided to just do a slideshow to make it easier than trying to pick out a couple!...)
