Summer so far

Summer has been busy and fun so far! Here's what we've been up to:

We finally got the other side of our fence in. Now the monsters are locked in, he he he

They get so dirty in the summer that this is the style they rock most of the time

Lots of jumping on the trampoline and swinging

For Father's Day we took Terry's dad to the Little America Hotel's breakfast buffet. Oh, the yumness
(Evan ate that entire sausage. Seriously.)
Maria and I have made it a tradition to go the Farmer's Market in SLC the last few years. It never disappoints!

Yes, I resisted the urge and did not eat any of those (even the veggies!)

The rest of summer has lots of pool parties and birthdays ahead. Can't wait!!

All Aboard!

Seeing as how Deacon is obsessed with trains, we definitely weren't going to miss "A Day Out with Thomas". The actual train ride was meh, but it's all for the kiddos, right?
*Warning-picture overload


The Thomas train


We snagged the conductor for a picture

The train cars are old but so cool. It went really slow (I guess so it wouldn't scare the kids) and only lasted about 15 minutes. Good thing they had other activities going on!

I love Evan's face in this picture :)

We met Sir Topham Hat (kinda scary in real life!)

We played some music

Then we went to the park to play before lunch

Maria got her slide on

Grandpa Ross shows us the art of monkey bars

Aunt Kristy loves Evan!

Walking to lunch. Awwww

We ate at the "Dairy Keen", I guess it's the local burger joint in Heber City. Can you say coolest place ever?! It was train themed for the Thomas Day's, and they had a train running along the entire ceiling of the restaurant.



The kids meals even came with train hats! But lets get serious. The coolest part of all was the soda machine.


I've heard of these but never actually used one. It's got a touch screen and you pick any soda you want, and then any flavor of that soda! I tried the Diet raspberry vanilla coke (yum), but I highly recommend the Diet orange coke. *Heaven*

The boys were so done with pictures


And completely done 2 minutes after we started driving home

It was a great day and I can't wait to do it next year!
