poor horse!


I was told that when Dan was a little boy this is the job he wanted to have, picking up the manure! Such high hope's!!!
Only in Utah, need I say more!

The Indians burnt down the house!
Jumping off of the wall onto the tramp at Great Aunt Lisa's
The kids put ice on the tramp to cool off!

The kids and I went with up to Wellsville (Logan) for Labor Day. Dan's Ancestor- Peter Maughan- settled Logan. So going to Labor Day is a HUGE deal for the Maughan family (Susan's side). We had a blast at the parade catching candy from all of the floats. Only in farm country Wellsville do you have a tractor in the parade!! After the parade there was a cowboys and Indian fight and the Indians burn down a cardboard house, the kids thought it was really neat. We walked through a craft fair before heading over to Susan's sister, Lisa's house for lunch. On the way there I was telling the kids that we were going to Daddy's aunts house. Bry looks at me and says "how many aunt's does dad have?!" We had a good laugh over that, it was pretty cute! The kids had fun playing with Dan's cousins kids and I had a good time visiting with Grandparents and Aunt's and Uncle's I haven't seen in quite some time! After the kids were all worn out we headed back home.

What a fun day! Way cool!

You would've had to spend the day at our pool if you'd been in Ojai. It was 107 degrees on Labor Day.
