24th of July

The weekend of the 24th of July was a blast for Jake and I. We decided last minute to go to my family reunion to my great uncles farm in Idaho. We both didnt want to go we thought it would be a waste of time and didnt want to have to get work off on Friday. But my grandparents were coming home from the mission and stopped by so we wanted to be able to spend the weekend with them. At the Farm we did relay races, and games. We played mud football that was knee high and at the end were so gross, we also had a huge slip n slide, we rode horses, and shot clay pigeons, of course i didnt get one but i attemped. Uncle Tommy thought i was too much of a city girl and was rolling on the ground he was laughing to hard. We also had a relay race with pigs. There was two tubs of water and a barrel off the ground in between. The game was all 3 partners had to go through the barrel with the pig and back through the fastest team to finish won. I unfortunately had to pick the pig up and shove it though i never though i would ever get that close to a pig in my life they were squeeling and wiggling it was insane. Jake did pretty well but the hit the bottom of the pool and blacked out haha his face is all cut up now and they ended up loosing also. All around though it was a fun getaway and we are so glad we went and saw life on the farm.
