Ogden's Dinosaur Park




Another summer adventure down. Bailey's friend Courtney, Hillary, Nick, and the boys came with us. We couldn't have picked a better day to go. It sprinkled off and on all day which kept the temperature down and the people away. The kids had a great time watching the mechanical dinosaurs, touring the grounds, and digging in the gem mine. We had a picnic on the grounds and fed the seagulls (which Owen really enjoyed). Good times!

Thanksgiving Point





Today Dan and I decided to take the kids to Thanksgiving Point. Well, we didn't decide to take them today, we have been bribing them with the adventure for a couple of weeks. Today was just the day we decided to go. We took Hannah and Maxwell along with us.

As we walked through the exhibit, two Moms walked past us and one said to the other "That is what it would be like to have five kids and a baby." I had to laugh, (after I got over the initial desire to yell "Only three and the baby are mine!").
We did feel a little crazy but we had lots of fun. This is what each of the kids said their favorite part of the day was:

Bailey - liked it all
Alex - The space room - well actually I liked everything!
E - ALL of it except the creepy guys (mannequins) at the beginning.
Max - Digging for bones...no digging in the sand and water...no the skeletons
Hannah - Her magic wand from the gift shop
