Ward Pioneer Breakfast

Saturday, we got up early and headed to our fun ward pioneer activity. We had an early breakfast, followed by a very sweet performance from the primary, and then tons of activities! They had butter making, ice cream making, rag doll making, stilts, sticks, stick pulls, 3 legged races, horse"power" trailer rides, and much more. We had such a good time!

ABC Stay 'n' Play

The other day, the kids and I were trying to come up with something fun to do and beat the awful heat we have been having, and we decided we would try out this little play place that opened up in Yukon last year. I was so sad when we got there because I couldn't believe it had been there that long and we had never gone, it was so fun!!! The kids had a blast, it was reasonably priced, and best of all...the workers picked up the toys! Woo hoo!!!!

Youth Conference 2011

This year our ward was involved in a huge 5 stake youth conference. Since I am in Young Women's, I got to sew some costumes and be somewhat involved in the whole thing. Finally, the day came for the performance that our youth have been working on for months. I was really excited to watch "my" kids perform. It was so fun and the show was excellent!!!! They did such a good job!

The performance was at the Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, just about a block away from out old student apartment. it was so fun driving around showing the kids our old spots. We had a little daylight left, so we took the kids down the road to the park we spent many of hours at when Michael was in law school.

4th of July 2011

Being in Missouri for 4th of July this year was great. We were sad to miss the awesome fireworks Yukon puts on, but we had a fun time at the little small town Missouri carnival. Here are some photos of our day.

Unfortunately, Lucas wanted absolutely NOTHING to do with the fireworks, so I only got one photo of Michael doing fireworks, sad! Maybe we will do better next year!

Starvy Creek Bluegrass Festival

This year for the 4th of July weekend we headed up to Missouri to visit with Grandma Marian and Grandma Kathryn, who was visiting from Ohio. One thing we were able to do was attend the Starvy Creek Bluegrass Festival. Kathryn and Marian go every year and it is so neat. It is out in the middle of nowhere and they have some awesome bands that play. Unfortunately, it was so incredibly hot outside!!! We were sweltering out there, so we were only able to stay for a little while. But, we were glad to get to spend time with family and enjoy some wonderful music. We are hoping to go back another time when it is not so hot!
