Olympic Museum

Over the weekend, we took the kids up to Park City for a day out. None of us had been to the Olympic Park/Museum up there, so we thought it'd be fun to check it out. It was quite fascinating - they had uniforms worn by USA competitors, gear, official olympic medals, and some sweet bobsleds! We weren't quite sure if it was okay to get in this one...but there was no sign saying we couldn't!

Kai really wanted to pick this up (I can't remember what its called). I think it weighed 40lbs! Kai had fun and we learned a lot about the olympics - so, well worth the trip!

Kai's Photos

Recently, Kai has shown a passionate interest in taking pictures of EVERYTHING!! With all of his practice, he is actually pretty good, for a 3 year old. Here are just three of the pictures from his last "photo session". :)

His 2 favorite toys - they play with Kai, take a bath with Kai, eat meals with Kai and even go to bed with Kai. Its so fun to watch him!

Bubbles

I know this is sideways...my niece didn't realize that when she was taking the film. But this is a song that Kai made up about bubbles and I thought it was so cute. Notice the hip action!!

Quick Trip to California

The kids and I recently took a quick trip to Fresno, California. We met up with my mom and all of my siblings and some of my nieces & nephews. It was so fun to be able to get together with everyone - even though we were there for my Grandma Ruby's funeral. This is Travis, Lucas and Reese!

This is Reese and Piper (P-Lilly)! The cutest girls under 1 at the party!!

Kai and Anna (Kai still calls her Banana). This was not the mandatory photo-studio, the kids just really like the play-pen...until bed time.

Gotta Love It!!

No explanation necessary - just an AWESOME picture!!

Kai's Birthday!!

My baby boy is no longer a baby! Kai turned 3 earlier this month and I just can't believe it! For is his birthday we let him open his gifts in the morning so he could play with them all day...he had a ton of fun!! We had a special dinner for him and a cake - which he was so excited about when he saw the candles. That weekend, we had a little birthday party for him. We had family and really close friends over and it was so fun. The kids played games and the adults got to relax and chat with each other. Then we sang "Happy Birthday" - I had to hold him above the crowd of kids so he could actually blow out the candles. Then he got to open his gifts - with the help of all the other kids there...I don't think he minded the help. He loved all of his gifts and we thank all of you who came to help Kai celebrate!!

OH BOYS!!!

The other day I asked Troy to help me get the kids dressed. I had Reese and he was in charge of Kai. In the left-hand picture, notice that both of his legs are in one leg of the pants. Kai thought it was so funny and hopped around the house for a little bit. Finally Troy "fixed" the pant situation. I was looking at Kai and just laughed. Notice in the right-hand picture that his pants are on backwards! I don't know about these boys!! But I love them both so much - so I suppose a little lack of style sense is okay. :)
