Since we've been blog-absent for quite a while, here's a quick summary of some of the exciting things we've been doing in the past few months. Michael and I relived the glory days by going to a concert of one of our favorite bands from college, Peter Breinholt.
We took a visit to Dinosaur Park in Ogden.
Sam turned 6!
Sam's first year of soccer. He loves it! All it took was putting on that snazzy blue uniform to drum up the enthusiasm.
First days of school. Sam started Kindergarten and Simon started preschool.
We took a camping trip to Idaho. It was super fun to catch up with friends, fish, play games, and go exploring. It was beautiful! One of the highlights was when Simon caught a pilfering chipmunk in camp with his net (see videos). The weekend gave the group some car battery problems, and a broken off muffler and exhaust system, but overall it made the trip all the more memorable. I hope we can do it again soon.
Thanks to Abby and Jared for bringing along the raft for some water fun and a good arm workout.
Pirate Party!
Visiting the lake up Little Cottonwood Canyon.
HARVEST TIME! We had a fabulous time at Wheeler Farm picking out pumpkins, going through the corn maze, having a wagon ride, and especially milking the cows. The boys picked out the very best pumpkins!
They took some pony rides.
Caught lots of grasshoppers.
And best of all, they found a secret hideout fort. They built up all the rooms very meticulously. Absolute stealth was required to ensure that the secret location remained private. They even remembered to engineer a seesaw in the play area of their fort.
Simon took the training wheels off his bike. He rides a two wheeler now!
I'm glad you're having fun in UT! What fun pictures. Thanks for sharing :)
