County fair and Camping!

Recently, we took McClain to the county fair. She had fun playing with Taylee and going on rides. We've also been camping. Mac was in heaven!! She loved playing in the dirt all day and sleeping in the trailer. It was right up her alley. We've been trying to fit in all we can before summer ends!

New York, New York!!

Last weekend my friend Shay and I went to New York. It was awesome. We went out there to see the Yankee/Red Sox game. Shay landed some great seats, 15 rows behind the 1st base line. She is a major Yanks fan, and it was her dream come true!! While we were there, we went to see Wicked. That was amazing!! I loved it. We also spent a lot of time shopping on Canal Street and shopping in Times Square. They have an M&M Factory and a Hershey Store that smells divine. We took a bus tour around the City and that was fun. You get to see a lot more that way. We went to Ground Zero, which was cool, but I was a litte disappointed, as it was under construction. We went to a church directly across the street. It's called St. Paul's and it served as an emergency room/headquarters for the volunteers searching for victims of 9/11. It has a cool little back story. Every window in every building within 2 blocks of the WTC was shattered when the towers collapsed, except the windows in St. Paul's Church, and not one of those windows broke. Pretty amazing. We had so much fun and I would LOVE to go back. That was my first time flying and I really liked it. I just may become a world traveler. Yeah right. But, it was such a blast. Thanks to Shay for taking me on her dream vacation, and thanks to Steven for taking care of Mac and holding down our fort. I couldn't wait to see my family!! Sadly though, Mac was more excited to see the teddy bear from the M&M Factory than she was to see me. True story.

10K and Fishing!!

This weekend I did my first 10K. My mom asked if I would do it with her about 2 months ago. It was the 10K at 10K in Fairview canyon. It was really fun and very rewarding. We only walked, and we were far from winning, but it was such a beautiful view up there and it felt good to complete it. Maybe one day I will run one. While we were walking, Steven and my dad took McClain fishing at Huntington Reservoir and wait for the race to end. They didn't catch anything, but I think we all had a pretty fun day! Mom and I before the race.

Mac and "Boppa." He's such a cute grandpa!

She loves to be part of the crowd!!
