Utah's Hogle Zoo

Ryan and Susie invited us to go to the Hogle Zoo with them. The kids were really excited. We haven't been for a couple of years. It was a lot of fun and the kids had a great time being with their cousins Mayson and Jackson. Thanks for inviting us!!!

The Baby Elephant was the favorite of the day

The kids had a ball playing on the statues around the zoo

I love this picture of Bailey and her dad. Even if their backs are toward me.
(It seems like that is the only kind of pictures that I can get of Bailey anymore)

Tyus' Raingutter Ragatta

This year the scouts got to make boats and race them. It was a lot of fun and all of the boats turned out really good. All of the boys got to race 2 times. They didn't have a bracket for placing and that worked out great. All of the boys were WINNERS!!!! Everyone had a great time and had a blast showing off their boats.

Before the race each scout got their picture taken in the raft

Peyton also got to join in on the fun. Both him and Bailey made a boat and got to race them before the scouts raced theirs. Bailey doesn't like getting her picture taken so I didn't get any of her and she didn't want to race her boat. Peyton had a ball doing both and was so excited that he got to be included just like his big brother.

New 4-H Animals.....

We got our pigs and chickens for this years 4-H projects

Bailey and Tyus will both be showing pigs and Tyus wants to show chickens. Peyton got to buy a pig too, but isn't old enough to show it yet so he will just enjoy raising his pig and helping his brother and sister with their projects.

Easter 2010

I am once again behind on blogging. So this is catch up time!!!

Easter was fun and relaxing as usual. The kids all had fun decorating eggs, Easter egg hunts at grandparents houses, and then the best of all was waking up Easter morning to lots of candy another egg hunt and new bikes.

Tyus and Peyton decorating their eggs

Bailey is suppose to be decorating her eggs, but if you notice she only has her cell phone. Could anyone even imagine having to put your phone down for 2 seconds!!!!
