Two Buck Tuesdays!

This last week was a super slow week for me and kids. So I thought "Hey everyone will be back in school this week. Let's go down to thanksgiving point and get in for only two bucks at the dinosaur muesum." I was pretty much CRAZY for even going. There was a HUGE Line out the door and like A MILE long to get into the place. But I thought "What the heck I just drove an hour to get here just be patient!" I called Lynda to come with us for some extra help with the kids since Mayley and Hunter pretty much dominate me 2 to 1. So it's nice to have extra company to help me with the kids when going to a huge museum. Did I say how INSANE the line was. It wasn't bad but we waited about 45 minutes to get IN the doors. I love this museum!! It's fun to see all the amazing things inside!! Playing with some toy Dinosaurs.

They even have huge fossils of fish that lived in the ages of when dinosaurs were on the earth! how cool is that!??!



it's BRUCE from Nemo!! That's what Mayley and Hunter said when they saw the Shark!!



Playing in the sand and looking for bones and feeling exhausted from touring the museum with a million people around!!!

Just for fun pictures of fun things!!

Every year we make it a tradition to go down to Alpine for Alpine days! The kids went slippin sliding and down a bounce house slippin slide and played in the water. Mayley had a blast!! Hunter was a little scared of the water slide but mayley took him one time before they put it away. she kept butting in line....Yeah like she knows there is a line. It was kinda funny!





It was SOOOO fun to go to the Alpine Days Parade Saturday morning because my whole family was there (well almost) Parker, Ali, and my Aunt and Uncle and Cousins were there from Vegas too because they were in town. My uncle always has some funny thing he does. This time he was wearing the Huge STAR glasses he got for a quarter at the senior center. The parade is the coolest ever. The kids got lots of candy, popsicles and fun toys!

A pic of me and my cute little mayley girl before church on sunday.

Mayley and Hunter playing games at Hailey's birthday party! They loved it.








Hunter being super funny and putting his shorts on his head. He did it all by himself. There isn't a day that he doesn't make us laugh!

BURRITO WRESTLING

When Bryan and I were dating one of our favorite things to do was Burrito wrestling. Wrapping yourself up in a blanket without any arms is fun and cheap entertainment!! We are teaching our kids at an early age!! we laughed so hard the other night watching the kids burrito wrestle for the first time!

August is such a fun month!

I got the kids' pictures taken at a studio a couple weeks ago. It was fun and they looked so darn cute.



YAY!! My computer is officallly fixed!! I was without blogging for a couple weeks and it wasn't fun cause I have so much that I have been wanting to blog.

The 1st we went to the nascar races at MillerMotor Sportspark. We went with my aunt, uncle, and cousins. It was fun to hang out with them and see the races. The cars were super loud but Hunter LOVED the cars. Mayley was more excited about riding the shuttle around the park. She said that was her best part of the day. We got to go to dinner at Bajio, then we went to a birthday party for a little boy in our ward. They had a pinata and super yummy food at the party. It is a Phillipino family so they had amazing phillipino food. I used to visit teach this family so I felt super excited that we were invited to come. Then we were watching our neighbors dog so we went and fed and played with him in their backyard. what a fun day! We also watched their bird at hour house named PELLY. (pele named after the brazilian soccer player)!

Mayley got to go meet dora at the Tooele County Fair. We waited for like 2 hours to see her. It's a pretty lame looking Dora and mayley was actually kind of scared to see her but it was fun cause they had lots of stuff for the kids to do! The kids got to pretend to be on a farm and a clown made mayley a pretty flower balloon and hunter an airplane balloon.

More pics to come of our other adventures throughout the month! Like Alpine Days, and the kids dancing and burrito wrestling! A pasttime of bry and I's.
