The Living Planet Aquarium

On Friday Steve had meetings in Salt Lake so we pulled the kids of school and went to the Aquarium. It was pretty cool and Wy and Ab enjoyed feeding the Sting Rays which are the highlight of the trip.

Arrow of Light

Wyatt earned his Arrow of Light. We are so proud of him and his hard work.

Gooseberry

Abby at the Fire class she thought it was cool to dress up like a Fire Fighter

Abby and the little group that we were assigned to.

This was a class on trees. Abby really enjoyed the classes mostly because I think she enjoys learning. And second she was excited to be at gooseberry.

I was able to go to Gooseberry with Abby, it was fun to be able to spend one on one time with her. When I attended Gooseberry many moons ago I was terrified of Annie Bangs. I hid in my moms coat and cried and then slept under neath her I hated it. Abby on the other hand is not as big as a chicken she chased Annie Bangs, I stood on a bench and watched the excitement just waiting for Abby to return back to me I figured she knew where I was. When she did return she thought it was funny (funny I am thinking) she was not scared not nervous nothing she went right to sleep that night as if nothing had happened. I wish I was as brave as she was when I was her age.

We slept in a cabin with about 10 other moms and about 14 girls. While waiting for the lights to go out Abby and I laid there and giggled at the snoring that was going on, little did I know it was going to get worse and cause me not to sleep I never knew women could snore like that. There was 4 of them that snored one right after anther what was I suppose to do-- Excuse me dear could you please roll over. Next time I will bring ear plugs or Ipod.

Overall it was good experience and I enjoyed the time with Abby

This year Abby and Matty are playing Soccer. Matty is enjoying it she waves and flashes a smile to us as she runs up and down the field, she is just there to have fun. As for Abby she is learning positions and footwork her team is called the Destroyers and so far it is holding true. I love to watch them play and having fun.
