Zoo 2011

Every spring we take a trip to the zoo. It is one of our favorite things to do as a little family. We didn't want to deal with the crowds and go on a Saturday or wait for summer, so I took off work one day and we went! It was a great day to go, the weather was perfect and most of the animals were out.

Gavin and Kyson loved the elephant. If you ask what an elephant says to Kyson, he does a pretty good elephant!
Don't mind the Tiger going to the bathroom behind us...


Gavin LOVED the carousel, Kyson on the other hand was a little nervous!
Kyson's favorite animal is the turtle, or the "gogle"

This little orangutan was so cute. He just sat there looking at Kyson. Here is Kyson trying to share some bread.
And the highlight of the trip is the train ride...

Mother's Day Weekend

I had a wonderful Mother's Day Weekend! I started it off by going shopping in Park City with my girlfriends and then spending the night in Midway with them. We had so much fun talking and eating out, shopping and oh, talking some more. It has been a long time since I have stayed up so late! Thanks Stacy for putting this together!

Stacy and Annie, and you can't see baby Gabe, but he was there too. He was such a good baby, we kept forgetting there was a baby there!

On Mother's Day Casey spoiled me and made dinner, and it was SO GOOD. I had grilled fish, and he had the roast. We have been having fun with our rotissery.

Congrats Camille!

My cute sister-in-law just graduated from UVU! We went to watch her graduation and Gavin and Kyson were so good! We are so happy for you Camille! Now on to your new adventure of being a mom to Baby Girl Spence!

The Biggest Loser

I love The Biggest Loser. I'm not a big fan of Rulan Gardiner, but I had to pull this picture out. This was us about 10 years ago when Alicia came home from her mission we saw Rulan at the airport, and had to get a picture with him.

Gavin's "fort"

Gavin likes to make forts. He'll set up the chairs and drape blankets over them. But sometimes, he gets a little lazy, and this is what his fort looks like:

Winter go away!

This is not a reflection of what today was like. Today was BEAUTIFUL! But this was just a couple of days ago....
Yuck! Hopefully we won't see anymore of this.
