Having A Blast In B-Town!

We arrived in one piece to B-Town (and yes, even my car seat cover survived)! We have been spending a lot of time with my family.Luckily (for us- not so lucky for her), Abby hasn't gone into labor yet so we were able to take another pregnancy picture of the three of us and our yet-to-be-born girls.
Kinsley has been on cloud nine since we arrived. She gets to play outside at ALL hours of the day (notice she is the only one in a sweater... it may be 75 degrees at night but that is chilly to us), grandma and grandpa have a trampoline, she has someone's attention 24-7, and she never runs out of cousins to play with.

CASSIA COUNTY PARADE
It is Fair week here and so there are different activities everyday. Yesterday we went to the parade. Kinsley loved the trucks, tractors, police cars, fire trucks, and floats. She didn't quite get the concept of running in the road to get some candy. The Youth Ranch float was throwing out stuffed animals.... but when we got one we realized they were used stuffed animals.... only in Idaho would someone throw out used stuffed animals. I believe her new lamby will "magically disappear" while we are here.

Later that evening we ate some delicious dutch oven dinner, saw all the animals twice (once to say hi and once to say goodnight), and went to watch the cow penning event. A team of three cowboys/cowgirls draw a number (i.e #4) then they have a minute to put the cows in a pen in order (i.e. #4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 1, 2, and 3). If the cows are put in the wrong order then they are disqualified. It was an interesting event and the first time we had all been.
