なんと 近所のおじいちゃんが作ってくれたパン。すんごくふかふかしてお店で買うパンよりおいしい。お水の代わりにバターミルクを使うとおいしくなるそうです。ピクニックにはポテトサラダも作って持ってきてくれました。Homemade by Brother Nelson. It was so soft and yummy! The key is to use buttermilk instead of hot water. He also made yummy potato salad and brought them to the picnic.

1847年ごろ手押し車で西部にやってきた開拓者の苦労や喜びを思い出す日。こんなボンネットをかぶっていました。Pioneers came to the West with handcarts around 1847. They had many joys and sorrows. They also wore bonnets.

私の友達の姪、スターラ。かわいい格好と同時にかわいい名前だと思わない?My friend's niece, Starla. What a cute girl with a cute name!

スターラのおばあちゃんといとこのハンナ。後ろに少し見えてるのがハンナのママ。Starla's grandma and her cousin, Hanna. It's hard to see, but the back is Hanna's mom and my sweet friend, Maleah.

開拓者も遊んだ袋レース。Sack race!

勝ち負けにかかわらず参加した子供にはごほうび。It doesn't matter if you were the first or the last. Everybody gets rewards.

2人3脚。 勝ち負けは関係ないので大人も子供も一緒。2 peole with 3 legs. Winning doesn't matter, so adults and kids race together. The front is my photographer's husband, Jon Snider.

私も参加したので分かりにくい写真しか取れませんでしたが これがほんとの卵投げ(ナイルバレーでもこうしてやってたんでしょうが、きっと私が見逃したんでしょう)。2列に並んでパートナーに卵を投げます。割れなかったら二人とも一歩ずつ下がって割れるまで投げます(笑)生卵なのに地面で跳ねても割れない丈夫な卵も。スターラのおばあちゃんの鶏、健康すぎ^^ラッキーな卵に当たった子供たちは5メートルくらい離れてもボーリングみたいにして投げてました(笑) This is the real egg toss (I most likely missed it at Nile Valley). I participated so couldn't take a better photo. We lined up in 2 lines and tossed raw eggs to partners. If the eggs didn't break, they stepped back one step at a time and tossed them until the eggs broke. Starla's grandmother's eggs were so healthy that some of them could be bounced on the grass for 15 feet without breaking!!

もう一枚ドレスのバリエーション。Another dress variation.

エマとリディアは持ち寄りのご飯をたくさん食べたあと裸足でリラックス。というかいつどこに行っても靴を脱ぎ捨ててくるので2人と靴のあとを追うので結構大変^^ Relaxing after a nice big meal. They take off shoes everywhere, so I have to keep track of them and their shoes...

スイカ大好きっ子。何個食べたら気が済むことやら・・・。Emma loves watermelon! She had so many.

リンリンが行きまーす。Lydia's turn!

シュ~!実はこのあとまたこうして降りてくると思ってたら、うえでオムツをはずしたらしくウネウネの滑り台をうつぶせでおしり丸出しで降りてきました。キャー!! Slide! I expected her to come down like this again after this, but she took off her diaper on the top and came down another winding slide mooning everybody!!


アリがたかったような滑り台^^ Like ants tackling the slide!

例の滑り台^^ Lydia's mooning slide... Big surprise at the end!

パパはパパ同士で集まってフットボール。赤いシャツがジェイコブ、青いシャツがクリス。Daddy's playing football with his friends. The red shirt is Jacob and the blue shirt is Chris. That's as far as I can tell^^

That was a fun picnic. I am sad that we missed the games- - but it was fun to see everyone in the ward! I am just starting to get to know some people. Jon especially loved getting to know the guys by playing football.
I'm glad you came too! It's fun to get together like this. You are super friendly, so I bet you'll get to know everybody in no time!
