Thanksgiving Point

We had a great time with Val, Tyson & Zach at Thanksgiving point yesterday for their $2 Tuesday deal. The farm country was fun and hopefully very worth it for Joseph who ditched a couple of classes to come with us.
Tyson & Zach did the pony ride, but I didn't think the twins would appreciate it as much, especially since I could hardly get Luke to pet anything.

Camping at Palisade

Christie and Matt let us tag along on their camping trip to Palisade State Park. We had so much fun playing in the water and just hanging out. Plus Christie & I enjoyed visiting the Snow College campus for old times' sake. Not that I have any pics of that. I'm such a poor picture taker. Hopefully Chris will send me hers...










Woohoo for naps on the drive down! They did really well driving, I was so proud of them!

Swimming

We went swimming a couple weeks ago at Oquirrh Park. We definitely need to go again! Thanks to Christie for the pics, these are all from her phone. Not too shabby.

We went to the Church Museum on Monday, and I didn't even realize they had such a fun place for kids.
Also, turns out there's a joshua tree outside of the conference center. Who knew?



I thought I'd also throw in this random one. Lucy loves to try on my shoes. The flats are so much easier than the heels!


We don't have any dolls, so they haven't had much baby experience yet. They know that my belly is "beebee," but of course I'm not sure they realize that we're really gonna have our very own baby in our house in two months. I'm excited though that they always notice babies when we see them at the store or wherever. Especially Luke, he's always sure to point them out.

Petting zoo

We went to just an hour of the free day at This is the Place. It was hot and miserable, but the petting zoo made it worth it.



This is when Luke got a little too excited and poked the goat right in the eye. "Eyes!"

Stuff

This is the moth Joseph found behind our apartment building. It's kinda pretty, really.




This is what happens when I leave my eyeliner in Lucy's reach.

4th of July Festivities

Wasn't it great that that the 4th of July lasted 3 days?! We got to spend a lot of time with both sides of the family.

It's a good thing Grandma's ice maker doesn't actually work!

I had just changed his diaper, so that's my excuse for his pantlessness. Although I think it made this picture even better!

Luke thought it was fun to run through the "waaa" (also known as "wawa").

We had a fun time up Ogden canyon on Monday. All of Joseph's family was able to come, which means all 15 grandkids got to play together! I really wish I would have thought to take a picture of all of them.

They wouldn't leave this spout alone, so Joseph let it drip and let Luke play in it until he got soaked.

Luke had a great time finding bugs with his uncle David.
