Billy Goats

Over the tumultuous past month I had a few evenings/mornings/afternoons of "I can't take this anymore!!! I need a break!!!" (Say....I'm having one of those days today.......) and Troy would be very kind and nice and take the kids away.  I don't know if he was being kind and nice to them or me, but it all worked out for the best. A few weeks ago during Bundle's nap, Troy (who gets the daddy of the year award) took the big kids up Emigration Canyon to a little stream we love and they had a ball.  You know, on daddy outings it seems like the kids are either completely horrid to him or just magically perfect.  On this happy day it was the latter, which means that we got our annual photo of the kids hugging each other:

And there were a couple of great pictures of them:

But the best part was their many reenactments of The Three Billy Goats Gruff:

 

What a lovely afternoon they had.  And what a lovely afternoon I had too.
