Diamondbacks Game


We headed to an Arizona Diamondbacks Game. We had a great time...especially because it was inside and airconditioned. First we found a fun New York style Pizzaria and then headed to the game. Andrew wanted every move of the game narrarated but that's okay we had a great time! (woof, horrible picture but it was the only one
with me in it.)

Powell

After Salt Lake we headed down to Powell with my family. Nothin like 21 people on one houseboat...talk about becoming closer. No, we were in heaven. Andrew loved trying just about anything and it was a fight to get him out of the water. We got some before and after pictures of him knee boarding and the before one was super cute with a big thumbs up and after he flipped me of...no I didn't make him go he had a great time. hahaha I laugh just thinking about it. Anyway, we might head back down in September to enjoy the not so hot weather. Love this place!!!







Aquarium


While in Salt Lake we headed to the Aquarium with Ali and Siri. We had the best time. Jack and Andrew were super brave and wanted to touch everything...even went for the stingrays. It was great!

Children's Museum at Discovery Gateway


We love the Salt Lake Children't Museum. We used to have a pass and used it all the time. Now that we aren't around we mooch off others to get us in free. Thanks Tiff! We had the best time!!!



Park City

One of my favorite places in Utah is Park City. We always have the best time when we head up that way. We had fun shopping, going down the Alpine Slides, and of course lunch on Main Street. Jack and Andrew both loved the slides but just about gave my mom a heart attack on the chair lift...I was laughing so hard I almost wet my pants.

One little side note...if you pay up the wazoo to go on the slides don't you think they could shuttle your little sled thing to the top of the slide for you. It was a bit tricky to get the sled and two little boys to the right place.



Oquirrah Mountain Temple Openhouse


We couldn't pass up a chance to go take a look at the new temple in South Jordan. It is so amazing.


Heritage Pioneer Park


While in Salt Lake we headed to Heritage Pioneer Park. I had never been and it was so much fun. I thought it might be geared towards older kids but my kids loved it. They got to ride on trains, visit the petting zoo, ride horses, make arrowhead neclaces, and much more. If anyone needs a fun activity I would head there for sure!

St. George

We had a great 4th of July weekend in St George. My mom headed down from Salt Lake and so it made the trip even more exciting and fun. We had a blast doing all of the usual St. George and 4th of July things...shopping, swimming, getting stuck in traffic, eating out, mom and Andrew went on a date and of course fireworks. Thanks for a fun weekend mom. We can't wait till next week. We are headed to Salt Lake for a week and then Powell for a week. We are so sad Kevin can't come but know he will be working hard at school...or partying because he will have no wife and kids to nag him.

At the Fireworks!
