Latest Summer Fun!

I've been neglecting the blog again (the story of my life, I know) and with school starting up again I'm sure It'll be a long while until I post again :) Most of these pictures are from Lagoon, Swimming (at "The North Shore" in N. Ogden) and Camping. We camped at the Camperworld just past Woodland, UT (near Kamas) and drove up to Mirror Lake for the day to canoe and fish. Corey's dad and step-mom met up with us that day.

Quinton and Daddy ready to ride Puff!





Emma in the PINK boat after she threw a HUGE fit because on our 2nd time on the boats she didn't get pink. The whole ride she was crying, "I want the PINK boat" Embarrassing at the time, but funny now (wish I would have had the video camera to black-mail her later in life).We were very lucky that it was slow enough that we got right off the ride and were able to be the first in line and get the PINK boat :)

Camping. We weren't there more than 1/2 hour and Quinton fell out of the trailer :( He had the biggest goose egg I have ever seen. We were very lucky it wasn't worse. 7/26/11

Emma and the wild flowers she picked.


In front of the Provo River Falls. We have pictures from this exact spot almost a year earlier. It's amazing to see how big the kids have grown in a year (especially Quinton)!

Spring and Summer Fun!

It's been a while, so I thought I better get caught up with our latest Spring and Summer Adventures! We've been SO busy having fun that I haven't blogged in a while. We decided that Emma was old enough for her first Easter hunt this year (I know the pictures are somewhere in my camera, but I can't find them tonight). We went out to Antelope Island. It was FREEZING but still fun. Little Quinton won the grand prize! A HUGE stuffed animal dog. After weeks of horrible weather we were finally able to take the trailer out and spend the night in Plymouth, UT (just north of Tremonton). We had a lot of fun in the pool heated by a nearby hot spring and enjoyed being outdoors. We cut our trip a day short because we forgot to bring the pack-n-play for Quinton to sleep in. That kid is a nightmare in the bed :) Our next adventure was in St. George. We spent 3 days there with my family in a HUGE condo. It was a lot of fun. We had tickets to Tuachan's Little Mermaid, but the production was cancelled as the dancers were not ready. It was pretty disappointing, but we had a lot fun in the pool, and took a quick trip to the Dinosaur Museum nearby. And finally our latest adventure: Emma's dance recital. She performed a short little dance to Disney's Little Mermaid's Part of Your World and has been singing the song all day :)
