Greer Family Reunion

A couple weeks ago we went to the McAdams Family Reunion in Greer Az. (It's a really small, pretty town up in the mountains) There were 29 people - 15 kids. We loved being up in the mountains and enjoying the fresh mtn. air and the scenery of the west! We had a good time seeing fam- Mill has 4 cousins within 6 month of her so she had a blast! She loves to be a show off to anyone who'll give her attention so she liked to play with the kids who were a little older.

That's Mill in the Back pack. We borrowed it from some friends in the ward. I thought Millie would hate it (she generally hates things that restrain her in any way) but she LOVED it! after we came home she was constantly requesting "bag! bag! and wanted me to carry her around the neighborhood.

There was a little creek out back and the little kids loved sitting on the bridge and throwing rocks in! (millie and rachel)

We got our pictures taken and the photographer brought some props along so some of the girl cousins dressed up like princesses. Mill wanted the fireman's hat though, but was still in a grumpy mood as you can see.

They had a horse tire swing that was one of the highlights for mill.

We saw several snakes and frogs and Horn toads. Millie loved looking at them and quickly touching them... but didn't want to hold them. But these last couple weeks she will randomly hold her hands out- cupped, and say in a really high voice "come on tiny Frog" then she will scream excitedly and laugh like it is sooo funny. She cracks me up.

Nesbit Blueberry Plantation

My parents came out for a visit last month and we had alot of fun sight seeing etc. One of my fav. activities was the Nesbit Blueberry Plantation. Pick your own, and eat as many as you want while picking! With Millie on our side I'm sure we got our money's worth (Blueberries are probably her all time favorite food and she must have eaten a pint of them while picking!)

They give you these buckets to tie around your waiste so you can pick with both hands! The blueberries were delicious, but I think I enjoied the experience just as much as the berries. As stated on their website "their was rain last night which makes for plump blueberries, and a good "plunk." I agreed, what a good sound those berries make as they "plunk" in an empty bucket!
