Funny kids

Brooke my little mt. climber!

This poor toad! He must live around our house some where. The kids keep finding him and bringing him in. I keep telling them to let him go. They let him go free long enough for me to get back in the house and then someone else picks him up! He sure is a cute thing I thought about letting them keep him, but I am afraid they are going to hurt him the way they (excpecially Bri) grab him.

Zarate Annual Lagoon Trip

This year was our 2nd annual Zarate Lagoon trip with John's family. We had a blast and I will have to admit this year was so much more fun for me because I actually got to go on the rides!!! (last year I was pregnant with Brooke) We got to stay with Lillian and it was so much fun!!! The kids of coarse just had a ball being together and Honestly I think it was the same for Lillian and I!!

Gail and Peter met us there. It was so nice of them they spoiled the kids rotten buying them icecream and I have no idea how many times Bri and Connor convinced them on going on the train!! They were such good sports! I hope they had some fun too!!

The next day we took Brigham with us and we thought it would be so much fun to take 5 kids (Brooke is not in the picture) to a museum that you can't touch things to. Well Connor had a complete melt down! IT was horrible I think Shane would have loved it if just he and John and Brigham could have gone. We should have done it that way but oh well!!

THey all loved the Bumper Cars they rode them over and over again!

One Man Band's Playland

Any time we go up North we try and stop at the ONE MAN BAND restaurant in Nephi. It's a fun little restaurant that you sit at your seat and order your meal on a little telephone, and then it rings when your order is ready. Their food is pretty good, their Scones are excellent and then we go to our own little play land behind. There is a little stream that runs right behind the restaurant and it makes for a great place for the kids to get their wiggles out! Of coarse we just have to make sure we have an extra pair of clothes for them because they always end up getting completely soaked!

This makes 5!

Happy 2 Birthday Bri

She loved this microphone that sings the same song over and over and over!!! Some times I think I need to think things through a little better before I buy something!

When John lit the candles on her cake she was scared!! She was cowering away from it and would not blow them out! SHane helped her out. I don't know why she was so scared.

Stuck Again!!

This girl loves to put her head in tight places!! You would think after the potty hat insident she would learn. Nope she has actually stuck her head in this twice!

Another tooth

Tea Party

My mom had a grandkids girls week at her house with the older girls. They wanted to be able to include Bri so they invited her to a tea party at Grandma's. It was so cute they all had there fancy hats (donated by Geraldine Thanks) and they had gotten some Fancy shoes at D.I. and tea cups and saucers. We got there and it was so cute they had the table all set and and there shoes all out. They had made cookies the day before and lemonade. I dropped Bri off and and when I came to get her they had painted their toe nails and had a fabulous time just doing girly things. THanks Grandma for a great time!

Messy Girls!
