What is going on besides our house?

Molly spent a Saturday with Grandma and Grandpa Binggeli, Dad, and Jarrell in Utah County . . . on the day of the BYU v. Utah blowout game. She needs a new Utah t-shirt, but has grown out of all the others she has had in her short lifetime. So, we had to go with the 4th of July shirt. At least it was red, right? James said she had fun playing on the white board with Alicia.


We also made it to the State Fair last week. Molly practiced all of her animal sounds as we visited the sheep, pigs, goats, and cows. We also visited the FFA kids farm where little kids get to see all of the aspects of agriculture from feeding a fake cow to selling your produce at a market.



My favorite part of the fair was when we were stopped, watching the pigs cross the walkway from the pig building to the showing-the-pigs building. A high school aged boy who had just walked across with his pig, ran back towards the pig building and exclaimed, "Ashley, hurray, I need the towel . . . the pig's got diahrea." Classic fair fare.


Besides rugby and pig viewing, Molly has also been enjoying her fair share of football games. She really likes footbal for the 1st, 2nd, and part of the 3rd quarter. At some point during the 3rd, she starts to melt and then she either A) falls asleep (only once) or B) begins a wrestling match with me until the game finally ends and she falls asleep in the car before we get out of the parking lot. The Wolverines are struggling. Molly looks cute in James' hat, though. She has discovered hats at home, too, and puts them on often.
