July Roadtrip
Brigham City, Utah

Shucking Corn:
Our first stop was a few days visiting Grandma Judy and Grandpa Val.It was so refreshing to play outside in their backyard, WHAT, there's places you can do that in the summer?!
Grandpa Val has a storage shed filled with PVC pipes and joints for the kids to build with, and literally, they did this... for.... hours....
They made forts and we made a big obstacle course that was so fun.Whenever my kids can find great enjoyment in creative play, outside play and doing things that are outside of the "typical" recreation list, for a moment in time I feel like I am a good mom. I really feel this type of play when they're younger will help them know from experience when they are in highschool that you DON'T have to do what everyone else is doing to have fun. Love that.
I am a jungle gym. I am not joking, if I just lay in the grass on my stomach, my baby and 4 year old will find entertainment jumping on me for a long time, and thats great... because for a while... I can just lay there and do nothing! :)
LOVED visiting Brigham City, WALKING to the miniature movie theatre on Main St, using the "flag" system to stop cars crossing the street on Main instead of a cross light, playing outside, visiting Grandma and Grandpa, and thinking every moment,"why dont WE live in a small town?!!"

Those PVC pipes look way fun!
I don't live in small towns because it makes it that much more fun to visit them...oh, and I love having grocery store accessibility within a 1/2 mile, and like every other convenience I can think of. J/K
