Webb Fun Weekend of Fun



Every last one of us...




We had the best long (kind of like this post) weekend down in Utah, I am still recovering (laundry, cleaning out the truck, diet back on track, etc...)! My mom planned a reunion of sorts for our family, and it was so awesome, everyone was able to make it for most of the time. Thanks to my parents for hosting us all, what a mad-house! But so fun! There were 4 babies born between September 06 and September 07, so you can imagine the mess/noise that that brings...but you can tell they love having us around, and we sure love being together!

We went down on Thursday afternoon, (to the scorching heat...after having barely hit the 90's here, 100+ heat was almost unbearable...I'm a huge baby, I know...) and met my parents, Jenna and Nate, and Jeff and Jill, and their respective kids, for dinner and then the Ogden Pioneer Days Rodeo. It was so fun, particulary since Hudson had new boots and Wranglers. He was the cutest thing ever. I know we are not really a cowboy family, but I have a weakness for kids in boots and jean...so cute. Hot, but cute. The rodeo was great, Kennedy loved the queens, as usual, and of course they both loved the horses, and especially the churro's. Hudson's very favorite part was the show at the end, motocross jumping. He was completely mesmerized. He hasn't held that still since...well, probably ever. I loved watching him enjoy it.



On Friday, we had a First Birthday party for sweet little Preslie. I can't believe she is one! She is such a funny little thing, totally entertaining. We picnicked and partied at the North Ogden Pool, and it was a blast! Slides, kiddie pool, lazy river, all good. Lots of food and lots of family, a great party.



On friday afternoon, my mom had a "Pink Lemonade Tea Party" for the little girls and their dolls. It was a hit, they decorated cupcakes, practiced being ladies, and got presents from Grandma, what could be better? She actually hand made little denim quilts for each girl's doll, and they were unbelievable, with their names embroidered on the corner. Mom, you continue to blow me away with your awesome-grandma-ness. Kennedy had a ball.



On Saturday morning, we all went for a bike ride along the path that follows the Ogden River. It was so great, shady most of the way and pretty. Afterwards, we went to one of my favorite restaurants, Rainbow Gardens, and then took the kids to the Children's Museum. If you haven't been there, I recommend it, it is a perfect place to spend a really hot afternoon. Hudson was quite naughty, running around out of control and trying to ruin things, but it really didn't matter, everyone was! Loved it.


Jace and Hudson hydrating...Me and Dustin...I think he was a pack-horse in another life...who else would let me throw in the tri-pod for a bike ride???

Tayler, Kennedy and Cortnie
Trulie and Jace...he liked this view better...can you blame him?we stopped on the trail and snapped this...it was so pretty!All those Grandkids!
Sunday was nice, we stopped in Cache Valley for a bit and saw some of Dustin's family, and let the kids romp with Taft, Seth and Katelyn. Seth is such a good cousin, he was totally teaching Hudson how to take his rowdy-ness to a whole new level. Dustin was very encouraging, like always, just a big kid.

We are so lucky to have such great family, we LOVE spending time with you, thanks for the memories!

  5. Sounds like a blast! We will coordinate our trips to Ogden and Brigham one of these days.
    I actually think Dustin was a pack donkey (not a horse) in another life. I'm sure you know why I say that;-)
