Fun times!

 Last week at library story time the kids got to do dry ice bubbles. They enjoyed themselves and had fun watching the bubbles explode and let out the"mist ". They also earned their library summer reading reward so we got to eat at Culvers the following day for lunch.
We pulled out the pool for a couple of days to escape the heat.

 Thursday we went out to Raft River to spend the night. We made Mom and Dad D a pre birthday dinner. Casey took the kids for a drive Friday morning, they didn't find Grandpa, however there's never a shortage of cows to find.

After lunch we headed out. We stopped at the rocket displays at ATK. Casey took the kids around and told them about the rocket parts. Peter was funny, whenever we asked him to stand next to one of the big rockets for a picture he'd run away saying it was blasting off. It was cool to see it all!


 Following ATK we headed over to promontory point. Casey and the kids had never been. We've spent years saying we should go, but never actually did; so with the day being ours to play with we went. The kids thought the trains were cool. Their favorite parts were seeing the big trains and earning junior ranger badges.

 We made our way to West Valley to stay the night. We chose the hotel because it had a really cool water park in it. We went both Friday night and Saturday after breakfast to enjoy the fun! Alice and I opted out of swimming Saturday because she wasn't an big fan the night before.

We met up with David, Anica, and Elliot to eat and go to the Tree house museum in Ogden. The kids had so much fun. We covered it all, dress up, music, pretend play, making puppets, climbing around in the tree, etc. Kendal loved making her puppet and she got to participate in a puppet play! Peter exploited all over, but his favorites were the pretend play (he was a doctor, cowboy, policeman, fireman, and President all in one day). He also loved building and spent a good twenty minutes building with Lincoln logs.



 


 

 


 We got to finish off Saturday by seeing Campbell get baptised! The kids had been so excited to see Campbell get baptised and it made Kendal even more excited for her own at the end of the year. It was special evening and we're so proud of him!

We may have skipped around quite a bit over the weekend, but we did whatever we wanted and most of all we made some wonderful memories!
