Panguitch

Shayden and Dillon. Isn't this funny!?
On Saturday morning they had a Pioneer Day Heritage Festival with handcart rides, candle making, panning for gold, homemade rootbeer, miniature quilts for the kids to tie, cornhusk dolls, wheat berries, and the cutest little petting zoo with puppies, kittens, ducks and goats. Kinda cold that day.
This was not planned...Crazy huh!?
How can life not be good when you're a kid?
Sprinklers!
Shayden rode Dixie for almost a whole half hour. She went up to the cattle guard and back at least four times. Gavon woke up from his nap for a quick picture before heading back to Panguitch for the Quilt Walk.
Shayden loved to swing on this crab apple tree like a monkey. Gavon's in the background throwing rocks.
We picked rhubarb a couple of times and ate it for breakfast. Shayden loved this; Gavon too. After picking it, she yelled while holding it up, "It's as big as me!!" She liked to pretend it was an umbrella. Gavon just liked to hit things with his...especially Grandpa.
This is my mom's parents' grave in Panguitch Cemetery. We got ice cream at Henry's Drive In and drove up to see their grave. Gavon was half way across the cemetery before I could get Shayden out of the van too.
Riding the sheep! This spring my mom had 8 lambs born. Gavon LOVED to chase them around.
Swinging in the back yard.


Gavon loved playing with the dog. He learned how to say, "Down!" To the dog. It's funny to watch what he does in the background in all the videos we took while we were down for the week. The dog's name is Cal, but Shayden calls him "Culley." Shayden is actually trying to lasso the dog, and she's calling it like it's a cow.

This sure is some great memories. I felt like the grandma's feather bed with all the grandkids in one bed. It was just too fun. I hope everyone recovered OK.
