A Day at the Children's Museum

One of the last Saturdays before school started, we decided to take the kids to the Children's Museum at the Gateway. We hadn't been up there yet, and Preston had got a coupon for us to go, so we figured why not?

Here is the kids outside the museum. Cade refused to get in the picture. I think he was ready for a nap at this point.

And you can't go up to the Gateway without playing in the Splash Pad! I guess we should have brought our full blown swimming suits!

We definately had a fun day!

Orchard Days Parade 2010

Eric had to go to guard the weekend of Orchard Days, so it was just me and the kids for the Santaquin Days Parade. They always love to see the floats, horses, motorcycles, and of course getting the candy!!!
It was perfect weather, and slightly overcast, so not too hot! I just posted our favorite parts that I was able to get on camera. Enjoy!

The End!

Winter Sledding

Last weekend I had a big Regional Training with Usborne that I was attending. So Eric, being the awesome dad that he is took Friday off and spent both Friday and Saturday with the kids!!! And, what is winter without a day of sledding!!! They were even lucky enough to find some great snow left close by. Here are several pictures highlighting their fun day!

I am so glad they had a good time, but seriously Spring can come anytime now!!!! :-)
