** Don't some of these pictures make you think of running down the hills to the theme of Little House on the Prairie? Or maybe it's just me.

It was a perfect day for Lagoon - 60's and sunny. We went on almost every ride. The kid's favorite ride was Collasus. They loved Wicked and Bombora too. Pioneer Village was super fun....except I lost $45 on or near Rattlesnake Rapids. :( The food was greasy goodness and the kiddos got a fun light saber and cotton candy. I enjoyed a caramel apple. Overall...a totally fun day.

Fall Soccer 2011

Our first adventures into the sports arena with the kiddos. He is loving it. He is a good sport and tries really hard. He loves to play defense. :) It has been fun to watch his games. One of the other player's parents is an old friend for college I haven't seen for years. It has been nice catching up with her. I think we will keep this up.

Handsome boy!

The "Green Lizards"

Practice day.

Utah State Fair 2011

The fair always brings up good memories for me. I have not been for years though. It was super hot, but Michael and I decided to go anyway. Megan was at a friend's birthday party. We had SO much fun. Michael could have skipped all the animal houses and art exhibits, but I made him go anyway. Poor guy. It paid off for him because we did a ton of fun things too. :) It poored rain on us for a minute so we hid in one of the buildings. The rides were fun and the food was yummo! We are definately going back next year. Maybe at night so Megan can go too. :)




The "Little Hands on the Farm" exhibit was awesome. He went through what really happens on a farm and even earned money and bought a treat at the end. He chose an apple. :) So fun!

Rides, rides, rides. The octopus was my favorite. You should have seen Michael's face coming down on the skyscraper ride. Priceless!

First day of school September 2011

I should have had them standing...but oh well. They are still darling. :)
