Carter Family Reunion

Last weekend Shane's mom side of the family had their family reunion up Cinnamon Creek Canyon... (South end of Cache Valley area) There were lots of fun little cousins there for Rylee to play with and get into mischief of course. Above is Rylee and Bailey playing in a handcart.

Shane was home for the weekend before he headed to Colorado for three weeks and was able to spend some time with us and his family. This is Shane pulling around all the little girls, he was deemed their horse for the night :) That was until all the girls were just sitting in the cart without anyone holding the front end up.....the next thing we knew the girls started to all move to the back of the cart and it flipped and Rylee was in the back and hit the ground face first....She came up with a mouth full of dirt and rocks, a bloody nose, and two fat lips....

The pic below is a couple days later after her face started to look normal again, I tried to take a pic of it when it happened but she wouldn't have anything to do with it, I don't blame her either!! She ended up with cuts and bruises to show for her crash in the lovely Pioneer Handcart!!!

Happy 24th of July

 

The Draper Parade was just on the street above my mom's house so we just woke up Saturday morning and walked up to the Parade. My brother Brett, Brianne, my mom, Rylee & Annie waiting for the parade to start!!

It was Rylee's first parade and she really didn't know what to do!! There were lots of kids all around and when they started to throw candy she just would turn around and look at me like "Mom is it okay that I go and pick this stuff up" it was hilarious.

About half way through the parade her bag was full of candy and she didn't want to pick it up anymore so she grabbed a sucker and came and sat on my lap for the rest of the parade!!! Wished dad was here to see Ry, love you dad!!!

Rylee Found Her New Favorite Thing To Do

We were at Draper Days last weekend and they had little pony rides and Rylee was in Heaven...She just kept going round and round and thought she was so cool...She rode a horse called "Scarecrow" and that was all she talked about for the next couple of days was the horses that she got to ride!!!

Here is a little clip of Ry on her horse ride...

Definitely, Maybe

Instead of being productive at night after Rylee goes to bed I decided to watch a movie. This one has been out for a little while and I had heard things about it and of course it is a romance story so I had to watch it..... And it was so good, well I liked it anyways, so if any of you are wanting to watch a cute romantic movie this is a pretty good one!!!  p.s. some language

Busy Week...Happy 2nd Birthday Rylee...Happy 4th of July...

Rylee got a fun bat at tee from Aunt JaCee & Bailey... She picked up the bat and started swinging away.... it was great!!! Ry and her cute cousin Bailey were posin' for the camera....

Shane & Liz came over for dinner on Thursday with JaCee & Bailey and we had a little party for Ry it was a lot of fun!!! Thanks so much for the fun Simba pillow, PJs, and the bat and Tee!!!

Earlier in the week, I was at my mom's and we had a lil party with my mom's side of the family and it was a lot of fun..... Thank you everyone for the wonderful gifts, Rylee got spoiled.... She cant put them down for one minute and she loved all the cute dresses!!!

Rylee loves the water as if you couldn't tell and this is her and my cousin Cole playing in the pool....

Fun pic eating cake and hanging out on the deck at my mom's.....We had a lot of fun this week, thanks so much to our family and friends who helped make it so fun for Rylee!!!

Happy 4th of July

Me & Rylee waiting for the Fireworks to start, we went up to the Aggie Village field and watched fireworks with some old friends, it was a lot of fun. Afterwards we went and had snow cones that were super yummy as well, thanks everyone!!!

Good thing Becca brought cookies, because Rylee loved them....

Me & Ry, Becca & Tyler & Jessica (Friends from Aggie Village)

I kept telling Rylee that the fireworks were going to start any minute and well they never really started within those minutes of course and well this is the face I got when they didn't start going off until like 10 minutes later........hahah

I caught one of the fireworks, my camera wouldn't focus at all, oh well....We had a great night, Rylee was a little scared of the fireworks but there were other kids there watching them with us and they were laughing and having a great time, so she tried her best to clap when they did and be all amazed by them....she would however lean over and whisper in my ear that she was scared...... oh i love my little girl!!!
