Farm Day!

About two Saturday ago, my Mom and I were garage selling and we saw a sign that said farm day 11-2. Well, we found out that there was a farm open to children for them to roam and pet farm animals.

Petting the little chicks!

Both Sarah and Jonathan really enjoyed the sheep!


Daddy helping Jonathan milk the goat, Jonathan really didn't want to do it!

Looking at the baby goats, Sarah learned to say goat at the farm!

The Falls

On Saturday I ended up not working and so Dave has been wanting to take our family up to these falls! It took a bit to get up there but it was so nice to beat the heat and enjoy the scenery!

Jonathan loved looking at them!



Jonathan and Sarah!
Sarah wanted to jump in and touch the water! We decided to go each lunch at some picnic tables and by a meadow. I didn't think that lunch would be too relaxing for me if Sarah just wanted to get to the water!
Waiting for lunch!
Enjoying the meadow!
On the way back down the mountain we went to a fish hatchery. We didn't hit the tour but we looked around! Jonathan and Sarah enjoyed the fish. Jonathan really wanted to take a picture in front of the fish! It was a nice day as a family, and then that night we went to a BBQ with some old friend which was fun!

Spending Time with Grandma and Grandpa

Grandma and Grandpa come to visit and Jonathan just loves to play with someone new! We decided that after Dave was done with school and I was done with Doctors for the kids we would go on a bike ride!Well Jonathan was ready! He didn't understand why he couldn't go like this!
Ready to Ride!
It was a great time to go riding before the storm came, on the trail we stopped at a park. We all had fun!


Grandma and Jonathan racing!

Cute!

We finally got a group shot! We love to see Grandpa and Grandma!
Jonathan and Sarah just loves the extra attention! And of course Dave loves to talk to his Dad, they could talk all night! Thanks for staying with us!

The Falls

Enjoying some good homemade chocolate chip banana bread!
Isn't that face so cute!
Bummed!

Jonathan enjoyed a sample of ice cream at the mall!
Can't you tell?

Sarah is saying hi to the girl taking our picture!
This is normal to have her mouth wide open!

Going to explore!





Coming back down!

After the Fall!

Enjoying our picnic!

The way Sarah gets around!

All better with a band aid!

Dave and I are rarely home together! But when we are, we try to do something fun as a family! Well, yesterday we both were home together. So Dave had to do a few school things first so we decided after naps we would head up to Bridal Veil Falls! Well, when we were about to leave the clouds got dark and it became very windy. So we hurried into the car, but on our way it started to down pour.
We were super bummed, but we decided to go to the mall instead and play on the indoor slide. Well, that fell through too because it was closed for maintenance!! So we just walked around the mall! Jonathan loved the Disney store and Build a Bear Store, then after an hour I looked outside and it was beautiful! So we decided we would go to the Falls!
We got the kids on our backs and we walked up to it! It was a nice walk and Jonathan loved looking at all the creatures and the river.
When we got there Jonathan and I decided to climb the falls- we didn't get to high because I was Leary about climbing and holding his hand (and my balance). Well, Dave and I switched and Dave went up with Jonathan! He was in heaven! They got very high! But then Dave decided to come down too. Well on the way down Dave slipped and with that Jonathan fell and hit his head! Dave FREAKED out, however I was very calm (the nurse came out in me I guess). Jonathan's was bleeding and CRYING. So I finally convinced Dave to give Jonathan to me (Jonathan does better with me when it comes to being hurt or sick). I guess it's the "mommy" thing. He finally calmed down. When we got to the car, I cleaned it and decided that there really wasn't anything that we could do, and they would put stitches in his head! I told Dave it was his decision if he felt that Jonathan needed to be checked out then we could go to the insta-care. Well, we decided to just have our picnic and Jonathan was way hungry. It was way fun. I got a picnic basket for 50 cents at a garage sale this past week and I think we for sure got our use out of it!
When we got home I washed Jonathan's hair and gave him some medicine. He got a mater band aid and was way happy! He wanted to eat more and be held by mommy. Jonathan is fine now his head is sore at times, and Dave my have a broken toe but that too will heal. That was our adventurous night as a family!

Fun Walk





Yesterday, we went up to Grammy's work and did a Fun Walk (or as Beth said is should be call make your legs tried walk!) It was actually really cold so I bundled the kids up! It was about 1.5 mile nature walk and through out the walk there were health questions to answer. We end up back at the Hinckely Building, and got a cookie and a banana! It was fun to get out and be outside ever though it was a little cold!
