Happy Hollow

So, This was actually a couple of weeks ago. The kids LOVE going to Happy Hollow. It is a park and zoo. On this particular day we decided to just go to the zoo part of the park. Grandma Rodgers bought us a year pass, so we can visit anytime we like.
The kids really enjoy getting close to the animals. Chase is so adventurous. He feeds the animals with no fear. He also know that if the looks along the walkway he can find pet food that other members dropped, and then he picks it up and feeds it to the animals. It works for me because I don't have to waste a quarter.

The Other kids in this picture are my friend Jenn's. Jenn and I have know each other since BYU. This big spider web is a great way to keep the kids in one place for awhile

There is a tunnel at the base of the Lemur habitat. The kids climb in and can a paine of glass from the animals.

This turtle is actually pretty cool. The kids got to pet the turtle! This turtle is actually really friendly. She follows the kids around!



It is a prtty small zoo, but the kids love it. Out year pass gets us into museaums and zoo all around the U.S. It even gets us into the Zoo in Arizona, Georga, and Utah!

Park Day

Our ward has park day once a week. The kids and I try to go to Park Day as often as we can. i even try to bring along the two boys I take care of. The park we went to this week was pretty cool. It is set on a hill and has lots of hiking trails.

My friend Jenn came to our park day with us. Our kids play pretty well together.

It's a picture moment. All of the kids are in one place at one time!

I don't know what it is lately. I can't get a good picture of my kids. They will not look at the camera. Ahhh. Come on boys. You are only young once. When you grow up and I am annoyed by you I will need good memories of how cute you are.

Family Night

For family night this week we went miniature golfing. Carter actually tried to play the game! Chase got about 17 hole in 15's and 1 hole in one.

Phoenix, AZ

Daniel and I went to Phoenix, Az (actaually Chandler) for 4 days last week. We went all by ourselves. It was the first time we were away from the kids together for more than 16 hours Since Carter was born almost 5 years ago. We had a blast. Daniel checked out many placed to set up a practice and I checked out schools. We also looked at many areas in town that we may want to live. We found a Dream first home and a pretty good perspective job. Plus daniel landed a position with Dr. A. Palmer for his intership! Dr. Palmer works with the Diamond Backs and the NHL league there. Way to go Daniel. Everyone keeps telling us that all of this schooling will be worth it. I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Boys with Babies

So, Carter and his friend Trevor decided that they were going to have babies. Carter has about 10 babies in his shirt and his friend has 2. Their babies were positioned a little high, especially Trevor's. They were so excited to be mommies, and I couldn't stop laughing.

Gaining Weight!

Chase is 22 lbs 3 oz. Yeah Chase! We have been trying to get his to eat some good calories and fat for quite some time now. Althought he still hasn't reached the 3% line, he is getting closer. He was running about half an inch under and he is half of that now. He is also 33 inches. good eating.

Mac Fun

For those of you who are not familiar with Macs. They have a program called photo booth. My boys love the special effects that distort their faces. They could take pictures for hours. Their favorate one today is the funny ears. LOL! My Digital Camera has been held up lately, so we tried posting something different.
