SPANISH FORK DAYS
Of course we had to do the Spanish Fork Cani if we were going to participate in any of Spanish Fork Days. The kids had such a hayday, it made me miss being a kid and loving that stuff. Thank goodness for Dad's, Im just to big of a wuss now to do that stuff. Unless you have a barf bag ready for me!
KICKBALL....WHAT?
Who plays kickball anymore? At least if your an adult that is not in elementary school, and your name is Jesse. Andy's cousin Jesse entered him in a kickball tournament a few weeks ago for Spanish Fork Days. Only Jesse would come up with something like this, but of course, Andy is such a good sport he goes right along with it. Jesse, Linds and Andy all ended up playing in it, and of course, if I was not 6 months prego, I would have gotten my butt out there also. Maybe next year for me, but for them they ended up taking 2nd place and only losing by 2 runs. It went til after midnight, but was so much fun to watch. We will have to practice up all year to get ready for it next summer!!

Charlie bit my finger
So my kids have been obsessed with this you tube video for the past month. It is really pretty dumb, but the more you watch it, the funnier it gets. I'm not kidding, I think that I have seen it about 30 times. We just sit around the computer and laugh our heads off at this cute little kid! Check it out if you have a sec!
4TH OF JULY WEEKEND
Mimi & Popi
Tanner & Jen
So annoyed that I am always taking pictures!
We had such a busy 4th of July weekend this year. It doesn't usually seem so busy, but maybe this year it just seemed that way because I am pregnant and tired. We had such a blast, and the kids loved doing it all. It all started at 6:00am going to see the hot air balloons down in provo. Andy's fam has been doing that for like ten years, and it is such a tradition that cannot be broke. So we thought we would tuff it out and just go another year. Well, Andy actually had to be in the Provo parade this year, ( he does an inactive Marine Corp. League once a month, so they all got to be in the parade) and Aspyn went to have a slumber party at her cousin Syd's house, so it was just Roni and I. After seeing the balloons, we decided to walk down to see the parade, with the other 10 million people that were doing the same thing, to see if we could find Andy before the parade started. By the time we got home, I was so tired and ready for a nap. No time for naps in the Farrer Fam, we were going boatin!! So we boated all day at Utah Lake, then came home and were supposed to go see the PG fireworks, but we ended up needing to go out and get Aspyn in Spanish Fork, so we just stayed out there and did our own illegal fireworks. Which was fine by me by that time, I was so d--- tired by that point, that I was ready for bed. Why does pregnancy have to be so long and hard on your body? Or is it just me???

BBQ
Weekend bbq at our house, so much fun. The boys ended up playing croquet ( however) til 11:00pm in the back yard! So happy its finally summer!
Throwing Hay
Andy's Grandparents live on a ranch in Wallsburg, and every year he goes up to help them get the bails of hay off the field, put it on the trailer,and then unload it into the barn. Well this year he was supposed to go on a Saturday with his little bro Tanner while I was at the pool, but the hay ended up being to wet, so we ended up going on Sunday when Tanner wasn't able to go. Instead, Andy had ME helping him do it. We had to do 3 diffenent trips with 100 bails of hay each time. That makes 300 bails of hay. Which for some of you, if you have not done this before, that is alot of hay to throw with just you and your wussy wife. Which was fine, except that I am 23 weeks prego, and not much of help, so he was basically on his own. Of course, I cannot just stand there and let him do it all, so I just had to help him. But, of course, I did take it pretty easy, but I was so beat when I got home. I thought next time hay comes around, I think this time I really might be busy, even if it is on a Sunday! We always love helping out on the ranch,and it teaches our kids to work which is good!

LAKE POWELL
Lake Powell was so much fun this year. We had a low key trip, but for me right now, that is all I wanted. We just went with Scott& Michele and the boys! It was so relaxing to sit on the beach all day, and let the kids run wild. They love it down there, except this time the beaches at Lone Rock were covered with sticker bushes. It was so bad, we had to make a trip into Paige to the Walmart to buy some water shoes. I never thought that I would be caught dead in those, but we had no choice. It was bad! Scott and Andy thought they had the week off work, but instead they were down there on the beaches raking and shoveling and burning all the bushes off our beach so the kids would have some good sand to play in. All in all we had so much fun and all got plenty of sun!

ASPYN TURNS 9
Aspyn finally turned nine! She knows just how to milk it for all that it's worth. She has learned well from her mom!! We don't have a birth Day, we have a birth Week!! We probaly over celebrate at our house, but it only comes around once a year! She was so excited to get to go to her Nana's pool to swim with her cousins and friends, and then off to the Orem city parade and fireworks! It ended up working out just great to have all that fall right on her birthday! She felt so special, and even finally got her own ipod! SPOILED!!! We love ya sis!

Special Olympics
We had the Special Olympics this week for Chris. I cannot tell you how excited he gets about it. He is such a stud and more importantly the most special one in our family!

MIDNIGHT RUN
My husband came up with this great idea to do something crazy. He thought it would be so fun to ride their little motorcycle 50's from our house in Lindon to his cousin Jesse's house in Spanish Fork. Not only to just do this, but to do it at midnight in the dark on the backroads, and see how far they could get before getting caught or pulled over by a cop! They took all the back roads from here to there. Fortunately, they made it without getting caught, without a ticket, and without calling me at all hours of the night to come pick them up. They made it there in 2 hours without any injuries also. Never a dull moment here at the Farrers!
(Andy thought it would be so funny to wear his "sherrif" hat that he bought at a gas station.)

We were sitting in the Chicago airport waiting for our next flight out into New York, when all of a sudden I hear my Mom go, "Oh, Hi Lisa Ling"! She had just sat down right next to us in the seats. We sat there and chatted with her for about 10 minutes, then asked her where she was going, and she was on her way into New York to cover a story for CNN. She ended up being on our same flight, of course we did not sit by her on the plane, we are not cool enough for first class like those celebrities!! Maybe some of you don't know who she is, she was on the View for awhile, and on Oprah, and now she does the National Geographic stuff. I just had to say who she was cuz my brother was like, " Who the he-- is that?"
