Liberty Land (Lehi, UT) July 28, 2008

Nicole, Justin & Hagen on the roller coaster.
Haze mad that his mom left him with me while she went on the race cars the first time.
Justin & Haze
Haze & Hagen. Haze wasn't sure about the boat that swings back and forth.
Bailee wasn't too sure about the boat either. Justin took her for a ride on it thought.
Hagen riding solo on the race cars. He thought this was pretty neat.
Bailee giving kisses.
Haze loving on his favorite baby girl cousin.

Bailee wasn't much for miniature golf---but she liked the ball.
I had Nicole take Bailee on the race cars. She liked it.
Bailee stealing a bit of Hazes bottle when he wasn't looking. I guess she wanted to save hers for later---funny thing is they had the same Powerade in them.
Bailee taking the animals for a ride.
Justin---Loving the race car.


Bailee on the Merry-Go-Round
Haze, Nicole, & Hagen on the bumper boats.
Hagen driving his own. Bailee and I were on our own bumper boat, but I don't have a picture of us since I was taking the pictures---I will have to get it from Nicole and put it in later.
Justin on the bumper boats.
Hagen again driving his own race car.

Nicole & I took the kids to Liberty Land for Hagen's birthday because he wasn't going to have his party for a few weeks. The kids had fun. It wasn't as big an amuzement park as we thought, but oh well they had fun anyways.

24th Of July (Pioneer Day)---Flaming Gorge

Bailee having fun splashing in the lake.
She loves the water!!
Bailee & her dad at the campsite by our trailer.
Bailee on the boat---being a bit goofy.
Jake, Hagen, Paige & Justin getting ready for a trip out on the tube behind the boat. We just got this 4 man tube and they all couldn't wait to try it out behind the boat.
Jake, Porter, & Paige on the tube. Porter wasn't sure about the whole tube thing. He did ride for a few minutes, but that was about it.
Bailee eating licorice and watching the kids dig in the dirt.
Sitting in the Captin's Chair of the boat!!!

Bailee & her dad in the water.
Paige, Hagen & Jake in the water. We were in the middle of the lake and Hagen asked if they could get in and swim in the "deep". So----we let them. Hagen LOVES the water---sometimes I wonder if he is part fish!!!
Scott & Porter
Daleen, Porter & ??? (She is about 17 weeks pregnant). We can't wait to find out what she is having.
Porter helping Grandpa Gary drive the boat.


Bailee taking up shade under the awning of the trailer and enjoying some Powerade.
Playing in the rocks & dirt. We had to watch her close because she would try to eat the dirt and rocks. Everything she touches still goes straight to the mouth.
Paige & Hagen
Jake & Justin----They really like going without the little kids because they can go faster and it is more fun!!
Bailee in her little bikini with matching hat and shades.



Testing out the water.
Porter liked the water, but he was a bit scared to go very far---which is good!!!
Hagen & Paige---They were always in the water. I think the only time they came out was to eat, go to the bathroom and to sleep.
Bailee watching the kids on the tubes.
Andy & Scott (on the boat) and Justin. They were just getting back from one of their fishing excersions.



For the 24th of July (Pioneer Day) we went to Flaming Gorge and stayed at Holmes Crossing. It was fun. We played in the water, on tubes, tubed behind the boat, went fishing, and all sorts of stuff. It was a blast. Andy, my dad and my brother Scott did most of the fishing and caught some Kokanee Salmon and Rainbow Trout. Andy got a downrigger for his birthday in June and was way excited to try it out at the Gorge. I bought this package of "funky flames" and you put them in the fire and it makes the fire change color---it was kind of neat. The kids liked it.

Ute Stampede 2008 (Bailee's 1st Carnival & Rodeo)

Bailee steering the truck with one hand----I wonder if she gets this from her dad.
Paige riding the bigger trucks.
Hagen riding the bigger trucks.
Bailee riding solo on the train. She was just kicking back and enjoying herself.
Haze, Porter, & Bailee on the Pirate ship
Jake & Bailee--Jake was a great cousin and went on some of the rides with Bailee while Paige, Hagen, Porter, and Haze went on some she couldn't because she was too small. He and Justin are really good to Bailee and the other young cousins. They are great guys!!!
Bailee, Haze & Porter riding the trucks

She rode the merry go round several times (about 6-7)
Sample of mom's caramel apple---she loved it---of course who doesn't like caramel apples.
She doesn't want to keep the hat on while we were sitting. If we were up and walking around she would wear it and not touch it, but as soon as we stop ---off goes the hat!!! She really enjoyed watching the horses. Everytime she saw a few of them she would get really excited and clap her hands and lean forward as if she was trying to get them.

Check out her cute cowgirl boots her mom bought her for the rodeo.

We had a fun time at the carnival. She went with her cousins---Hagen, Haze, Paige, & Porter and mom, and her cousins parents. We also ran into Justin & Jake while we were there. We stayed out and let the kids play until after 11:30 pm. Bailee, myself, Nicole, Hagen, & Haze all got home after midnight, but we had fun!!!
