Dutchoven dinner and car racing







Last Monday we went up Big Cottonwood canyon and made dutchoven dinner with the some friends and family. Brandon was thrilled to use his dutchovens that we have had since we got married and never used! It was our first time cooking in them without help! Brandon was quite impressed with himself for a beginner! It tasted so YUMMY! We had chicken and potatoes and then of course s'mores and all kinds of treats! Brandon made jelepeno poppers. They were so hot, but good!


Over the weekend I drove up to Idaho with my mom, sisters, nieces and cousin for a family reunion. We gad quite the adventure with a 4 week old baby and a 2 1/2 year old, but it was fun to be with the girls! We kept saying we had a car full of straight estrogen.. 7 girls! We stayed overnight at Grandma and Grandpa's in Driggs and watched my uncle and cousin race in the figure 8 race. It is kind of like a demolition derby, but they drive in a figure 8 and do laps and run into each other. I absolutely LOVE these!! My cousin won the first race and my uncle took 2nd place overall out of, i think, 22 cars! i couldn't get the greatest pictures because all I had was my phone!
