 |
| Cam and her cousins and soon to be sister-in-law headed north to Payson, Arizona to a rodeo for her Bachelorette party. |

| Bren loves Utah, Morgan and the Property If it was up to him, they would move !! |
 |
| This is when Cam found out that HAM actually comes from a pig.................seriously? The things we learn at the Morgan County Fair :) |
 |
| Rodeo time !! Saturday afternoon after the rain downpour, it cleared off, and we were able to enjoy the Morgan County Fair and Rodeo. |
 |
| Had to grab a picture of the gorgeous sunset. |
 |
| This is the middle of the night rain storm that did so much damage ! |
 |
| First day of School - BIG SENIOR !! |
 |
| Landon and Kacey and kids had a great time with the Brooks in Yellowstone/Jackson Hole |
 |
| The air quality has been terrible from all of the smoke coming from fires in Oregon and California |
 |
| Football has started !! Treyson, Tagg, Thatcher and Payson are all playing. We enjoy supporting them, and are kept VERY busy with games. |
 |
| Another project at the Property.........what could it be? |
 |
| Our Zinnias are looking good |
 |
| The squash is taking over !! |
 |
| We even got a blue ribbon :) |
 |

 |
| The goats loves the garden refuse |
 |
| CJ's Ivory & Birch booth did really well at the fair |
 |
| Tagg sent me some pics of Scout camp (held earlier in summer) |
 |
| The cabbages have started to be harvested |
 |
| And we found a new way to do corn - super easy !!! |

| A few bruises ! He was all smiles here, but right after the ride...........not so much :( |
 |
| And the back too !! Man those sheep are mean :) |
 |
| Treyson and Tagg participated in some games at the fair, MC'd by no other than Grandma Shirlee !! Yeah ! In this one, they had to chew up bubble gum, and blow a bubble. |
 |
| The "Snails and Tails" guy had this gorgeous tortoise roaming around. Thatch was fascinated with it. |
 |
| Of course they like the SNAKES best of all |
 |
| All Cam would do was touch it................ |
 |
| She finally held it - VERY GENTLY AND QUICKLY :) |
 |
| I sure appreciated my family for supporting me and Stacy and Brenda. I really liked it when they hung out with me under the shade in our booth. |
 |
| Tagg wore this backwards, because the front was dirty :) |
 |
| We stopped by the Brooks to visit the kids, because we weren't sure if we would be seeing them before they left on Sunday. |
 |
| Cam is sure going to miss Brightyn |
 |
| Kacey still had ALOT of packing to do ! |
 |
| We headed up to the rodeo to save seats. Cam is a GOOD seat saver (haha) |
 |
| She LOVES the Chinese plate, but NOT the onions :) |
 |
| Yeah !! - They came to the Rodeo ! These two girls are sure sweet :) |
 |
| Sunday morning we made the rounds and said good-bye before Cam had to head for home. |
Cam left this letter for us on the computer:
I Love Being Here And Love Seeing Every One And Kissing The Babies And Playing With Payson And Thatcher And I Hope I was A very big help with the baby and Payson.

 |
| Kacey and kids were leaving also, for the Philippines. They flew out of Terminal 1 with Alaskan Airlines, so we got to see them at the airport ! |
 |
| And again in the Security line ! (They made it back home to Landon as of this post, and all is well) |
 |
| After I got Cam off to Arizona, I headed down to 5900 S. to see Roger's new digs at the Murray Depot. |
 |
| Here he is - hard at work :) |
 |
| Last night (Monday) we had a doozy of a thunder, lightening, and rain storm. |
 |
| It poured, and our rain gutter was clogged....... |
