august 20 . sugar coma

We had so much fun with Britney and her kidos at Liberty Park. We actually headed to the Aviary first...which, let's be honest, was not super impressive. But we made the most of it. 

Afterwards we headed over to the splash park. I know that people say that Liberty Park is scary, but I love it. Good times and fun had by all. We grabbed a spot under a shady tree and the kidos went to town exploring. 

Brynn got stung by a bee on her foot right after this picture was taken. Poor thing.

Brynn hung out with us most of the rest of the afternoon, because she said her foot was bothering her. She wanted to hold Will. It made me laugh when she said that Will was so heavy that he was going to crack her in half!!!

Katy had a blast with TJ and Gage (after she lost Brynn to the bee sting). We are so lucky to have such great cousins that are so sweet to her. They both kept checking on her to see if she was ok when they were climbing all over that place.

I do believe the best part of our trip, though, was the cotton candy sugar coma! 2 dollars of pure deliciousness....worth every penny!

Or at least that is what TJ thought!

august 12 . vivienne's blessing day

It's always fun to spend time with family....even when you have to get up at the crack of dawn to drive to Brigham City for a baby blessing at 9:00 am.

Ha ha, love the outtakes sometimes. This is what you get when I have a totally goofy face in the others and my family hates to take pics...

Vivienne and mom humored me though. 

This picture makes me laugh. Gage, TJ, and Brynn have proven to be GREAT cousins...Will is still just getting used to all the noise, I guess!

Vivienne looked beautiful. Britney found the cutest rose bracelet (her middle name is Rose). I am still blow away by all that hair.

Even though they are still figuring it out, these two are becoming fast friends!

october outings

We were lucky enough to get out and see some of the sights this October. One night, when we were board, we drove to Gardner Village and got a watermelon sucker. Man I love those things! When we got there Katy reminded us that she didn't like witches. So we avoided them and were on our way.

Britney called me and wanted to come up and get together. When we pulled up to Gardner Village again Katy said, "I don't like this place". But despite her hesitating we had a good time. No pictures by witches of course!

She did like the ducks though.

We also ventured to the pumpkin patch with Robyn and Hayden. Although I totally didn't pick out a pumpkin that day. Guess I forgot. Katy and Hayden thought the mini corn maze was fun. I think the maze aspect was defeated when they were just going every which way!

Hayden and Katy also liked the tractors they had there.

It was a hot day. I've been super surprised at how nice the weather has been for October. We have been very lucky in that regard...to have a nice fall.

Yup, some pretty fun times to be had around here!
