Go Jazz Go

  We had so much fun at the Jazz game! We figured that we would be in the rafters since the tickets were free and we were right. It was fun watching the game, but my favorite part was watching my little boys having so much fun!

We brought binoculars for the boys to help enjoy the game.

 DJ loved sitting by himself and cheering as loud as he could.

It was fun spending time with grandma Sue.

The boys loved the treats too.  DJ would grab huge handfuls of cotton candy and shovel it all in his mouth at once.  It was hilarious to watch!  To say the least, they were hyped up on sugar!

I love spending time with my family!  

I am glad that the boys are able to have these fun, memorable experiences!

Creating and Cousins

 We got the play dough out and the boys loved it. DJ kept saying he was making something for Brie, so cute!

Later Grandma Sue and Grandpa E invited us out to watch our cousin, Brayden play football.  The boys love football so of course we went with them.  We took our footballs and had fun seeing Brayden play.  During half time Kailee took the boys out and played football with them.

Witches

 We went to Gardner Village to check out the witches set up for Halloween.  We had seen the witches briefly when we went on a walk a week earlier and knew we had to go back and spend more time. 

This witch is making a magic potion.

 Grandma Sue, Kurt, and Shai came with us to enjoy the witches.  We love spending time with family!

It was fun to see all of the different witches. There were so many - camping, kissing, putting out a fire, flying across the sky, and so many more!

 

I sure love my boys!

 

It was fun to see all of the pumpkins they have set up everywhere.

 

We love Halloween time...

 and spending time with family.

Silly String Fight

 Grandma Sue brought up silly string so the kids could have a war with them.  They loved it!  Too bad DJ and Alex couldn't quite work them on their own.

Even thought the boys couldn't figure it out by themselves they had a blast!  Thanks Grandma Sue for always thinking of the kids and how they can have fun!

Mountain Memories

Our sister, Hil planned a dinner in the mountains for Sunday. We love spending time in our beautiful mountains! We headed up early so we could have plenty of time to play with our family. It is gorgeous up there and the leaves are starting to change colors.

We played down by the river.We played up in the mountains.

We loved spending time with family.Daddy and DJ loved hiking around in the rocks.

DJ and Daddy hiked a mountain.They hiked to the top of a big mountain. That is our camp you can see right below them.Daddy took most of the kids in a cave. They loved it!Our family loves to play games, so of course we did plenty of that while we were up there.

DJ loves spending time with Grandpa!

These two are inseparable.

We celebrated Grandpa's and Kailee's birthday up in the mountains. Kailee and Grandpa share the same birthday.We also enjoyed marshmallows.

Family time is the best!

Peaches

The other day my mom came over to help me can the peaches we picked from Grandma Alice's house. It was my first time ever canning and I think we did a very good job. We are excited to have yummy peaches!

Fruit

We went over to Grandma Alice's house to pick her peaches and grapes. The boys love helping and running around her backyard. I got to take many of the peaches home. I am going to try my hand at canning.

Hogle Zoo

We went to the zoo today. The boys love seeing all of the animals!

The boys were excited because we rode the train.

We got one ice cream cone to share. The boys really got into sharing it!

We had a great day at the zoo with Grandma Sue.

RAWR

We went on an adventure today to the Dinosaur Museum. DJ has been asking to go see the dinosaurs for a couple of weeks so when we found out it was only $2 today we went. I didn't tell the boys where we were going, but DJ was pretty certain it was to see the dinos. Good thing that is where we went or he would have been a super sad boy!

Mommy and boys looking at the dinosaurs.

DJ and Alex playing in the water area. Once Alex realized there was sand in it he didn't want to play in the water anymore because his hands were dirty.

Alex checking out all of the dinosaurs. The first thing we saw was the paleontologist and he just wanted to watch him clean the bones. Alex's favorite thing was the shark, he cried when we left it.

He loved all of the dinosaur bones, even when they were about to pounce on us.

I LOVE spending time with my boys! I enjoy watching them learn and being able to teach them!

DJ was so excited to see all of the dinosaurs. I don't know what his favorite part was because he seemed to love everything about the place!

After we spent the morning at the museum we stopped by a park to eat lunch and play for a bit.

Grandma Sue brought a treat for everyone, Cotton Candy! After eating it for a while DJ stuck out his hands and screamed 'Ewww, sticky' at everyone and started laughing.

DJ at the park. He loved the slide!

Alex playing at the park. This boys loves to explore.

Here are my boys with their Aunt Shaileen. It is fun to see the love they have for her!

Spending time with family is so rewarding! Thanks for making this a fun and memorable day!
