Joe and His Farm Girls

We took Gemma to the Heber City Rodeo last night and could not get over her. She danced and clapped and laughed at every event. She fell in love with sheep and can now moo. She would moo at the cow and then laugh her head off. So joe was walking around with his giggling mooing baby and his wife telling him to breathe in the farm smell and naming all the horses.  Joe is in love with two farm girls!

I grew up in a city doing city girl things...I had a pet poodle. Nothing in my background says farm. However I have always loved horses. I rode when I could and romanticized riding off into the mountains. I told Joe we should move to Heber and buy horses....but wow it is really far away! I am lucky to live in a neighborhood full of horses that need exercise.

G has been so fun with all her words lately. She is constantly talking and jabbering away. Her daily words are: Yes, Preety, mum, dada, sookie, jersey, dog, mmmmm, and makes a variety of animal sounds. She is so expressive and it is pretty easy to figure out what she needs. That being said she is the BOSS. she knows what she wants and what she does now. I love this about her. At times her opinionated little self is a lot of work but her strong personality is exactly how I like a girl!

 Joe and I love to just sit and watch her. Church is highly entertaining for us. She waves to everyone and likes to visit with her familiar ward members. Recently she has wanted to take part in every hour of church whether it be entertaining the families behind us in an endless game of peek a boo, hiding in the curtains and popping out during Sunday School, or teaching, playing the piano, leading the music, kissing the babies, and collecting the hymn books during relief society.  The best part is she completely wares herself out and takes a great nap when we get home.
