Dino museum

So, since I'm awsome, these are backwards, this is my mom and girls leaving the museum. We found out that it was $2 tuesday for August at Thanksgiving point so we had to go.
sigh. My mom was making silly faces to make them smile, but they made silly faces back.



Alyssa was smiling until she looked up and realized what was looming overhead and got scared.
My little archeologists


Duck pond

there is a duck pond just down the street from my parents house and alyssa would go see the ducks everyday if I would let her. Megan was afraid of the ducks so she stayed on the bench.
The pics got a little unorganized, here are some pretty flowers by the duck pond. Megan isn't mad, that is her smelling face.
There are three baby ducks that Alyssa focuses most of her bread on.
too sexy for my diaper!

hogle zoo

My mom took us to the zoo and we had a great time. Megan was scared of a lot of the animals, but my mom was more than happy to cuddle with her to keep her safe.

if you have ever been to the hogle zoo, you will know that this picture is a must.
my monkeys.




Grandma Hamblins

My parents just got back from a year in Isreal and their house was being rented so their stuff was in storage. So we got to spend some time with each of the great-grandparents while my mom was gettin her house ready. I am a slacker and didn't take any pics of grandpa peay, but the girls loved helping grandma sally water the plants.


peay reunion

Every year my mom's family gets together for a reunion. I didn't take as many pictures as I should have, but it was a lot of fun. There were two cats who wandered into the yard and Alyssa spent every spare moment with them.
Pwease Daddy can I have a kitty!!
I've never been on the Heber Creeper before and it was really fun. It was just a slow ride up the canyon, but being on a train was great, they even had a train robber come on the train that really scared Alyssa.
My uncle took pictures of us driving by

Me, the girls, my mom, and my aunt Dian.

The loud horn scared Megan, she covered her face everytime.

Farm

My mom and I took the girls to the Thanksgiving Point farm and had a great time. It is nice to be back with my family in Utah, but it is bittersweet because I miss my other family in Portland.
Feeding seed to the chickens.
Megan was too afraid to sit on top of the fake animals.

But brave enough to ride the real horse. I walked around with her a few times, to make sure she didn't fall off, but then let her go by herself.

Wagon ride!!

Camping


We had a great time camping with Caleb's family near Redding, CA. It was so much fun to see everyone and just hangout. Our camp was right next to a river and the girls practically lived in their bathing suits because they were in and out all day.








After Redding we continued our adventure to Utah. Where we are staying for about two months before making the big move to Korea!!
