Carson and Devon have been wanting to go to a cave for a really long time. Oh my goodness! What a workout! I couldn’t remember how hard the trail was, and it really wasn’t that bad, unless you take two little boys. Dillon carried Devon most of the time, I did for very very short…
Soccer Practice
“The rules of soccer are very simple, basically it is this: if it moves, kick it. If it doesn’t move, kick it until it does.” –Phil Woosman–Carson had his first soccer practice last night. He did AWESOME! I was so amazed at how…non-shy he was! We got to the park and some older boys were…
“I Just Love to Go to the Zoo, It’s My Favorite Thing to Do! If You Ask Me, I’ll Say to You, I Love to Go to the ZOO!!!”
Title is a song from Caillou, just in case you thought I was crazy:). Okay, if I get Caillou songs stuck in my head, maybe I am going crazy! Yesterday we went to the zoo. The boys had a great time. Out of ALL the animals to see, Carson was most excited to see the…
Demolition Derby
Ohhhhhhhhh yah! I LOVE this, I get so excited to go to the Derby. The boys loved it last year and were stoked to go again. We got GREAT seats even being a little late, we were on the front row, and got plenty of mud thrown our way. Again, another great perk from Mr….
County Fair
So much free stuff to do:). Here are a bunch of pictures from the fair. This was all yesterday. They also had concerts going on. Carson even yelled out “Yee-haw!” during the Kid Fiddlers. Petting Zoo: Fun Inside (Jerry cooking, painting garden pokes, farm play, and magician):
County Fair Concert
We went to see Restless Heart (Why Does it Have to Be Wrong or Right, I’ll Still Be Loving You, When She Cries, That Rock Won’t Roll), Little Texas (God Blessed Texas, What Might Have Been, Kick a Little), and Craig Morgan (What I Love About Sunday, Tough). It was a blast! We had GREAT…
Swimming Lessons
Ahh, summer days. Carson is taking swimming lessons currently at the pool. First day, he totally wouldn’t even touch the water. He was SO excited to go, then as soon as everyone was told to sit in the pool, he stood there scratching his head for like a minute before I realized he was too…
Singing in the Rain
I LOVE summer storms, they are one of my favorite things. The boys and I went outside yesterday to enjoy the rain, watch the lightning and see a rainbow. Devon was scared of the thunder, but finally decided he wanted to run in the rain too.
Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point
Just went with my sisters last Friday. It was their 7th (I think) birthday celebration, so they had extra things like crafts to do. If we lived closer to this place, we’d totally get a pass. Next month we hope to do the farm-petting area and the children’s gardens. I’m excited. Boy, I’ve been doing…
Children’s Museum at the Gateway
Love this place. The boys have a blast. They have all sorts of things for kids, mostly for science and cause and effect types of learning. Totally hands on. I just think it is great, and will be awesome during the long winter days where we don’t want to go outside. This is them being…
