More July Adventures!

The last Sunday my sister was in town we had all the family that lives nearby over to my grandparents to meet her son Peter and have ice cream.These were the littles there.

Top center clockwise: Panda, Liam & Kinley (siblings), James, and Peter. The three babies are 12 weeks apart - Peter, then 6 weeks later Liam, then 6 weeks later James. We joke that Liam should have been named John.

The Zoo!

My friend Megan, and Plexus mentor, has a pass to the zoo. We've been friends for over 2 years but have never actually met in person. So we met up with our little ones and had so much fun at the zoo. 

 I think that drinking fountain has been there fore 50 years. 

We were at the right spot before the Elephant show and we got to see and play with some African instruments. Panda loved it. 

Then we got a special treat. We got to feed the Giraffes. It was pretty fun. 

Panda loved it.  That is definitely something we will do again. 

Then, of course, the train. His favorite. 

We'll have to ride the Heber Creeper sometime soon. I'm sure he'll love it. 

 We decided to go out to dinner and he loved the fried pickles. But he loves pickles anyway, so that was a given. Then dip them in ranch? He was in heaven.

Last Friday I decided we needed a treat. I asked him what kind of cookie he wanted and he said "A Big one." So he got a big one. 

We are now working on potty training! Eek! Wish us luck! 

Busy busy!

I am trying to make summer for us. Especially little Panda. Here's a little bit of what we've been up do lately.

Someone wanted cupcakes and Mom and Dad were not fast enough in meeting his demands.

BEAR LAKE!!

While my sister was in town we made it up to Bear Lake for a few days

 This boy wanted to spend nearly the whole time on the swings. He loves swings and slides. Hopefully next summer we have our own swings and slide.

 If he wasn't swinging or sliding, he was running. So much energy! He just goes, goes, goes!

 And then crashes.

 And crashes.

It was a great getaway with family, We sure love being up at the lake. We have no schedule and just laze around all day.

A few other family pics:

 We clean up nicely.

 But we still have our goofy side!

The girls and the grandsons. We're slow to grow, but we're gens when we do!

Aquarium!

 We went to the aquarium again (we got an annual pass) and there was a mermaid. I could not get Panda to look away. He was smitten. His favorite movie is The Little Mermaid. And her top was pretty blingy.

Playing under the water. This is such a fun little aquarium. I'm glad we got a pass. It's 5 minutes from home and a great way to spend an hour or two with my little guy.

I'll post more soon!

I love keeping busy!!

What do you do to keep busy in the summer?
