Ashlynn's First Day of First Grade.....

Ashlynn started 1st grade last month.....I can hardly believe it, my first child going all day to school!! She is growing up way too fast!! During the summer she would tell me she was a little nervous about going ALL day! She seems to be having fun though and she likes her teacher, so we are all happy!!!

My CUTE little First Grader!!!

Lagoon...

So, before summer was OFFICIALLY over the Parker's and the Carley's took the kids to Little America to stay a night and go swimming. The next day we headed to Lagoon. My kids had never experienced Lagoon. I thought it was about time they did!!!

I didn't realize the interesting stuff they had there about the pioneers. Wow, it just boggles my mind how they used to live....I love that kind of history. Greg was quite into reading about the Prophets. I think we could have spent most of the day just in that area!

Mitch liked the guns!!

Can't wait to get on that ride....

Nash and Ashlynn having fun!!!

The bumper car's had to have been THE FAVORITE out of all the rides for the kids!
When it was getting close to closing time this ride didn't have a line....so, the kids kept going on it. I don't know why the worker didn't just let the kids stay on it but they had to keep getting out of the cars, going around to the gate and getting in a new car, and then she would give her spill over and over. By the time it was closing time, the girl had had it....especially with Mitch. He was driving her CRAZY! As his mother, I thought he was pretty funny but apparently she DID NOT!

Mitch and Dakota

They had a BLAST!!!

MONSTER...

Greg had to fix something on this Monster truck so he decided to bring it home and show the kids, okay and me how it opens up and to see what is inside. This trailer is awesome. Inside there are three big flat screens, couches and a nice surround sound!!! By the way, this truck is traveling with the Warped Tour!

Thanksgiving Point

My mom had taken a day off of work a few weeks ago and wanted to take advantage of having a little free time. Well...I suggested we take the kids to see the animals at Thanksgiving Point seeming we haven't been there in a long time! Probably not her first choice of things to do on her day off but, she was a good sport and the kids were so happy to have their grandma with them! I invited Tanalyn to come along too! The kids had a great time!!!

Looking at the little chicks with Grandma!!
