Riding Horses on the Ranch

At the end of June, Sonja invited us all to go horse riding at a ranch owned by her boss' father-in-law. Seth, Heidi, Michelle, and all their kids joined our family and Sonja and had a fabulous time! It was such a fun experience! I really loved riding that horse. I got to ride Mitt Romney's wife's horse, Colors.

When everyone had gotten a chance to ride, Daniel took the fastest horse out for some exercise. They rode fast! Daniel is my own handsome cowboy!

Utah Open House

Cheryl had an open house in Utah a couple of weeks after her wedding. We took some family pictures...

 ...and ate pizza while setting up. :)

Emma had fun sucking on a lemon slice. Silly girl! :)

Cheryl's Wedding

 These are the only pictures I have so far. Wasn't she a beautiful bride? :) Congratulations sis. Now you are Cheryl Ryszka! Rob is terrific. You are lucky to have each other!

California Trip

 We went to California in June for my sister's wedding. It was so fun to see our family and friends again. We miss them! Cheryl's wedding was beautiful. I will post more pictures in another post. Lea and Emma were the prettiest flower girls ever!

 Lea and my cousin's daughter Cambria love to hang out and spend time together.

 My kids loved swimming in Grandma's pool - they could not get enough of it :)

 Grandma took us to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. The kids really missed that place. We had a great time that day and it ended too soon.

 I love the look on Emma's face, like - "Hey! Where's my cotton candy?"

 Emma was fascinated by the shark's in The Shark Experience.

Aren't my daughters beautiful!?! Visiting California was so much fun! Can't wait to go back next year!
