Father's Day Weekend

June 18 & 19
It had been a while since we had been to visit Spencer's family, so we decided that Father's Day weekend was the perfect time to go.  We had a great party in honor of the fathers in the father.  It was so fun!  We had a bar-b-que and got to swim in the DeMille's pool.  It was so much fun!

After the pool party and bar-b-que, Maggie and I joined the DeMille's at the Pleasant Grove Strawberry Days Rodeo.  I took some picture of a few of my favorite events.

Here, they stuck a whole bunch of cash all over these poor calves and then sent hundreds of children/teenagers chasing after them.  It was hilarious to watch everyone, including the calves, run around like crazy.

Michelle and Maggie
There was a darling family sitting next to us and this cute 12 year old girl absolutely LOVED Maggie.  She began using her pink cowboy hat to play peek-a-boo with her.  She had Maggie laughing harder than I've ever seen before.  It was so cute!  
After dinner with Spencer's family on Father's Day, we headed home to Logan, but on our way we stopped in Centerville to with my dad a happy Father's Day and to say one last goodbye to Aimee, Smoot and Oaklee before they headed out to join Porter in Indiana for the year. 
My family heard that Maggie went to her first rodeo the day before and decided that she needed to try the cowboy hat on for size.
I thought is fit her quite well :)

We are so lucky to have such wonderful father's in our lives and Maggie and I are so lucky to have Spencer in our lives.  We love them all!
