Summer LOVES the backyard.

She will go up and down this slide over and over :)

She doesn't walk yet, but give her a slide and up she goes!

Our Lemonade Stand

It all started with the neighborhood kids selling pickles and water.
Pickles and Water - Who Knew it would be such a hit!! 
Everyone was supporting their stand and buying things from them and even River came in and got her $$ to go buy pickles and water.  She came back in awhile later asking for more $$ so she could buy some more.  We suggested that she pick something that she could sell to earn back her $$.  She decided to sell gummy worms.   She not only made her $$ back, but made a couple more nickles as well.   Hhhmmmmm, gummy worms or pickles??

So then next day they decided to set up an even better stand...They pooled their goods and sold gummy worms, kool-aid, hair ties, and assorted candies.   

They set up their store complete with a stand, sign and cash register!!

They set up the stand on the most visible part of our street and made quite a lot of $$.

We split all the $$ evenly.

We've Adopted 2 Kids!

With a house full of girls - we decided we need some little boys to join our family. 

The anticipation was great!

Here are our newest kids! 

The white one is River's - "Maa-ey" she chose him because he was the most calm and white, just like the temple!  I was surprised that River chose a bigger kid when she could have had tiny ones, but this one was the one for her!

Silver chose "Tree-Top" our black tiny kid. 

Brushing Treetop's fur. 

We set up a great yard for our goats.   

Even Summer got in on the fun! 

We drove to Logan to pick up our babies -

Here is a much needed rest stop.   

SO glad to be out of the car. 

This goat has been SO good for Silver.  This is her baby!

She kept saying "Me want my baby!"

She is SO sweet to the goat and packs him around everywhere. 

She tried to tie him onto the pole. 

We took the trip with Colt's aunt and her family, who also added 2 kids to their family - so there were 10 kids total in the Suburban:  4 goat kids and 6 of our kids ages 6, 5, 4, 2, 1 and 11 months.  It was quite the adventure!!
