Trip to the Zoo

The boys and I went to Hogle Zoo with my sister Maria and her daughter Kelli a few weeks ago.

The kids had tons of fun, but Kelli and Mackay were a little terrified of the carousel. Drew and Sammy can't wait to go back.

Drew, Kelli, and Sammy

Sammy on the Lion

Kelli sat on this for about 2 seconds then she
was done.

Elephants have always been Drew's

favorite animal.

I love this face!!

There is an elephant is this picture, but he is

kind of hard to see.

Halloween

Happy Halloween!! Our family had a fun little Star Wars theme going on this year. Drew and Sammy were clones from the new Clone Wars movie. Mackay was the cutest little Yoda I have ever seen. We had lots of fun and got way too much candy.

What a cuttie

I really liked the masks for pictures because

it didn't matter if they were looking at the camera and smiling.

Gardener Village

Our family went to see the witches at Gardener Village today. The kids wouldn't really hold still for pictures, but I managed to get a few decent ones. Grandma Hill bought everybody these giant pumpkin sugar cookies, what a mess.

Fall in Logan Canyon

We drove up the canyon last week with Sarah and Leigha to look at the leaves. The colors are amazing up there. The kids had so much fun and we got some great pictures. This was just about ten minutes away from our house. We love being so close to the canyon. I'm going to miss this place so much. Our family is moving back to West Jordan next weekend. We are really going to miss all our good friends in Logan.

Giant Pumpkins

Grandma and Grandpa Hill's pumpkins have done really well this year. Mackay just loves posing for pictures on this pumpkin. We can't wait for fall.

Drew's first day of Kindergarten

Drew started kindergarten two weeks ago on August 25th. He was so excited that he put his backpack on the second he got out of bed, and wore it all morning until he went to school at 1:00 in the afternoon. He is having a great time and making lots of new friends. Good luck Drew.

End of Summer Fun

We spent the last two weekends up at Bear Lake trying to enjoy the weather while it lasts. The kids had a great time playing on the beach, and riding on the boat. I knee boarded for the first time because the water was a little too rough for skiing. Can't wait to go back next summer.
