Childrens Museum at Discovery Gateway

A couple of weeks ago we took the kids to the Childrens Museum and they had so much fun. There was this cute little house that had all of the big grownup toys only in little people size. Kylee would not leave, she loved it so much. She played with her cousin Abi in there for a long time serving their Grammy some yummy food they made:)


There was this water thingy(it was pretty cool) Austin wouldn't leave that, he was so wet.


They had this little store with cash registers and fake food. The kids had so much fun!!!!!!!!!



MAN OVERBOARD!!!!!

Kylee didn't mind sitting in the boat.


Upstairs was for the older ones, but the little ones enjoyed it too. There was a news set up with KSL 5 logo in the back. It had teleprompters with a story running so you could pretend to be a news anchor and a green screen where you could do the weather. Very real, and way cool. The pics didn't turn out so well of the green screen because you can't take very good pics of the monitors where it added the pics.




The coolest part for most of the kids was the lifeflight helicopter they had outside. You could get inside and be the pilot, and it made all of the appropriate sounds. Austin thought it was the coolest thing.

4th of July

For the 4th of July we went to Heber to Brandon's brother's house. It was a lot of fun and the weather was great. The kids played with the slip and slide and a little pool. The grownups ate!!!!
Behind their house is a big playgroung and a tennis court. We took advantage of that and had a lot of fun. We played doubles against Justin and Michelle and Brandon and I won!!!! Yay!!!!
Before we even got started for the day Austin fell on the sidewalk and scraped most of his nose off. It looked ok until the end of the day, then it turned into a giant scab.

From here on out, I am pretty sure that every picture that you see of Austin he will have a ball in his hands. It is so hard to get a good picture of Kylee she is just too busy to stop and pose and when she does, she pulls the weirdest faces. This one turned out pretty good though. Although it looks like she has to go to the bathroom.

I just had to take a picture of my Rice Krispy treats. Aren't they so festive? I know I try!

Austin on a girl bike. Hmmmm....

You can't really see this picture very well, but Brandon was the only one in our family that actually did the fireworks. Kylee was scared to hold the sparklers (no news there) and Austin was out cold on my lap.

My little dancer

This year we decided to get Kylee into dance. She LOVED it!!!! Every morning she would ask me if it was time to go to dance yet. They did there little dance recital in June, and it turned out so adorable. Kylee came out on stage with her hands over her eyes. I thought she was crying. Once the music started she began to do the dance, and did sooooo good. I was so proud, I couldn't stop smiling:) I was one proud mama.

Cloie also did so good. She is a natural. I think she loves being up there on stage.

I tried unsuccessfully to download the video of their actual dance and it won't work. I am very frustrated about that, but I did manage to upload this one. It is of them in their dance class. It is very cute as well. I will keep trying to upload the other video. I don't know what is wrong. Arghhhhh......
