Old McDonald Had A Farm! E-I-E-I-OOO

On Tuesday we went to Wheeler Farm. It is a farm in SLC. It is there to teach kids about farm life and show them animals from a farm. My Kids LOVE going to it. Me, the boys and Grandma Rachel went. We brought my nephew Adam with us. My sister RaeAnn came with three of her daughters and 4 grand kids and my Sis-in-law Janice came with her daughter, her daughter-in-law and 5 of her grand kids. In all we had 22 of us there. So much fun. We started off with all you can eat pizza. A boys dream. We played in the little stream until it was time to go feed the cows.

We brought some bread to feed the ducks. All the kids had so much fun. Here is Drew being loving. Caleb is only in a shirt because 5 minutes after we got there he fell into the stream, then into the dirt. Not a good combo.

All the kids that went to the farm. From left to right(and names probably not spelled right) we have: Devilin, Sophia, Victor, Adien, Drew, Wyatt, Beckett, Meagan, Charlie, Dallyn, Adam, Jared and Caleb.

Caleb after he milked the cow. He wasn't a big fan of it.

Drew milking the cow. Also, not the biggest fan. He was so funny though after milking we went around and looked at the baby cows, chickens, turkeys, pigs and other farm animals he would walk up to them and say "Hello lunch", "Hi dinner" to the pigs, cows and chickens. He is a funny boy.

Out Of This World!

Last week we went to my Mom's house to spend some time with her and my family. Sad for us Darrin wasn't able to come with us, but we had lots of fun. Here is what we did the first day. We went to visit my Aunt in the hospital. We had a fun FHE dinner with my family and earlier in the day we took the kids to the Clark & Hansen Planetarium. They had lots of exhibits for the kids to see. This is Jared and Drew walking on Mercury.

The boys got to be weather men. They thought it was so fun because it was on a TV.

The Boys walking on the moon. I wanted them to just stand still and smile, but I think this picture turned out much better.

This was a big machine were the ball went all around and around. It had a couple of levers were you can make the balls stop. Boys loved it.

Grandma and the boys. I know we wore her out, but we had tons of fun. Hopefully very soon I will post all the other fun we had.

Jared's Birthday Bash

Happy Birthday Jared. We had a fun time with him on his birthday. We woke and and opened gifts. He is such a good thankful child. I love it. For his birthday he got some Bakugans, clothes, a couple games and,
some new golf clubs. He was so excited. Darrin took him and Drew to the driving range so they could hit some balls. For breakfast he chose to have crepes. That kid loves them and can chow them down. He ate 6.


For the fun activity we went to Fiesta Fun. We did the bumper boats. The perfect activity for the heat.

Jared had so much fun driving them, going under the fountain and shooting water at people.

Drew was so excited he was tall enough this year to ride it.

We then went inside and played LOTS of arcade games. The boys had a blast.

While the two older boys played games, Caleb played on the indoor playground.

Jared wanted a science cake this year. If you can't tell the cake is a beaker, with a potion in it.
For dinner we went to Red Robin. The boys love the idea of all you can eat fries.

Caleb always the big helper in blowing the candles out. Birthday week was fun, but I am glad that we don't have another birthday until birthday week in February(Caleb's on 16th and mine on the 18th)

Drew's Birthday Bash!

Drew had a great birthday. He wanted McDonald's Sausage McMuffins for breakfast. Nice and easy. We loved it.


On to gifts were he got Bakaguns which he wanted so much. He was so happy.

He loved his Speed racer remote control car. He also got a lava lamp, some clothes, some legos and some other odds and ins.

When took the kids to Jumping Jacks. The kids loved it. They played for a few hours. All the bouncy slides they wanted. Caleb loved all the slides.

Jared didn't stop running the whole time.

Drew was jumping off the slides.

It was then off to Chinese. Our families favorite restaurant. All you can eat Chinese. What could be better. They waiter are the best there. We go maybe once a month. They know what we drink and love our kids(but who doesn't)

The waiters brought Drew his own cake and sang to him. He loved it.

Here is the cake Drew wanted this year. A skateboard. It was nice and easy to make this year.

Trip To The ZOO!

This is a little late, but here are some pictures of going to the zoo with family. It was tons of fun. I got to see lots of my awesome family. We went up with us, my Mom, my sis.-in-law Sandra, my nephews Gid and Adam and Iza my niece. When we got there we met up with my niece Marinda and her daughter Sophia and Marinda's friend Jessie and her son Grayson. While there we also got to meet up with My niece-in-law Laura and her daughter Meagan and also with my nephew Josh, his wife April and their kids Tyce and Cadance. So much family so much fun.
Jared, Adam, and Drew at the end of the day. They didn't want to smile for the camera.

I remember this sign from when I was a kid.

Train ride. The kids loved it.
