Baby??

Don't get any crazy ideas from the title!! I was playing outside with Tyler and Jason today and Tyler asked me when we are going to have another baby like Jen's new baby! (Jen is my neighbor). I about died!! I told him that it was going to be a LONG time :-) Later, when I told Jimmy about it, he asked Tyler when he wanted another little brother and Tyler said, "now."

Grandma Bruck visits

For some reason I thought that I had already posted these pictures.

A couple of weeks ago, Jimmy's mom came out for a week long visit. We had a great time going to the Treehouse Museum, the duck park, Thanksgiving Point's Barn, and to the Ogden Nature Center.



Duck Park


Thanksgiving Point - both boys loved the animals. Tyler was content to just watch them, but Jason liked to pet them.







Ogden Nature Center - they had a really fun treehouse the boys played in after lunch.



Lagoon

We went to Lagoon last week on our Stake Lagoon Day. It was TONS of fun. I took the boys with a couple of other Mom's and their boys. (There is no shortage of boys in our neighborhood). The older boys, Tyler, Peyton, and Matthew had a great time on the rides. The younger boys, Levi and Jason were stroller buddies the whole day; not able to ride many of the rides. They did get to run around and play a little bit. Overall, it was a great day and I had a hard time getting Tyler to leave because he wanted to ride more rides.

Tractors, trailers and boats

Tyler is really into tractors with a trailer to pull a boat. We have found ways to hook trailers up to almost every one of his tractors. He will pull them to the "lake", back in, put the boat in the water, let all the people get on, drive the tractor and trailer to the parking lot, do some fishing, put the boat back on the trailer, drive home and have a BBQ! This kid is hilarious!! He has this boating thing all figured out.

Oreo's & Smiles

Jason LOVES oreos and enjoyed several after dinner one night. He made such a mess that I had to take a picture. When I would say, "smile" he would squint his eyes. It was hilarious.


Every time he blinks in this picture, I asked him to smile. Sorry there is no sound.


Crazy Boys

Jason and Tyler were coloring one night and decided that it would be more fun to use Jason as the canvas instead of the boring old construction paper! They thought it was pretty funny!



The video is of Jason who woke up one night after being asleep for only an hour. Aunt Tiffy tried for 40 minutes to get him back to sleep, but he was laughing and doing itsy bitsy spider, so she brought him back downstairs. He got a little wound up and found a new game:

Snowbasin

Jimmy thought it would be fun to go up to Snowbasin and have a picnic and go for a hike. We had a great time. The weather was nice and cool. We hiked one of the easy trials and then rode the gondola up to the top of the mountain. Tyler thought that was pretty cool. The boys were able to play in snow at the very top! There is an amazing view from way up there!









BREAKING NEWS - First Ever Hurricane in Utah

Okay, maybe not, but it sure felt like it. Tiffany and I were in the kitchen making dinner on the 4th when this HUGE gust of wind came up. All of the trees bent over and there was sand blowing all over from the park. All of a sudden, one of our trees just snaped at the base and fell over. It was one of our best trees! There was also a tree at the park that snaped in half!
