Horses

The girls begged and begged to see their horses. We made them a deal and said no riding- we'll just take them some carrots and apple treats. The girls both love those horses a lot. Somehow every time we go, Papa Don has bought another horse. He has 4 now. Kelsie still loves Pizza the best. And of course he's by far the tallest. Kailee still loves Ali the best. Funny cuz he's the smallest. Here is Kels yelling in the field "come here boy"!


Not sure what happened to the "no riding this time" rule. Oh that's right, Papa Don stuck Kailee on bare back. She did great and rode Ali like a pro. Kels wasn't into the whole bare back idea which was fine with me because Pizza is SO tall. It wasn't fair that Kailee was riding so next think I knew Papa Don was saddling up Pizza. 










Kelsie is terrified of flies. She's sure they are all bees. I love her scream in this video:

Slip-n-Slide

Uncle Dus bought the girls a pool and slip-n-slide. Brittany & I didn't even think to pack swimsuits. Oopsy. Obviously the girls didn't care at all. They didn't even care that the sprinkler water was absolutely ice cold. They ran out in their undies and had the time of their lives. After a while Kelsie shed her undies and went commando in my parents front yard none the less. She'd be a streaker all the time if I let her. Super. Its funny because my mom has pics of me,  in the same yard, probably about the same age, nakey in a pool. :) 
Then good 'ol Uncle Dus showed Kelsie the sprinkler hose and how to use it. She got those mischievous eyes and I was doomed...

UBIC concert

UBIC night was a blast! Every year there is a free concert at the park. Its the big event and everyone goes. This year was a country singer named Chuck Wicks. I'm not a big country fan but he was actually really good. We all had so much fun. As you can see, Kels was really into it too!

Dustin brought a million glow sticks. He thinks of everything, I swear. Thanks bob-bob!

UBIC parade

We went to Roosevelt to see the fam and celebrate UBIC. We started out Saturday morning by checking out the parade. It was filled with firetrucks, tractors, floats, and of course the UBIC royalty. Kels & Kailee loved waiving at the princess girls.
I think I have this same exact picture from last year. When you know the person driving the firetruck, they honk extra long just for you. How lovely, right?!?. The other thing I loved about this parade/Roosevelt is that rules no longer matter. I think there was a no throwing candy from the floats rule. PUH!!! I can't even count how many times I was beaned in the heed. Ouchy!! At one point I had to start hiding all the candy because Kels was on a sugar high. I think we left there with a life time supply of penny candy, otter pops, Frisbees & balls. Thanks Row-belt!! :)
