Now today was the totally awesome day! So recently Living Social had a deal where you could buy an annual pass to Union Station for the family for $22. This pass also gets a family into the Ogden Nature Center and the Dinosaur Park!!! So…we spent the day using our passes. First was the Ogden Nature Center. Mason chased turkeys for the first twenty or thirty minutes:

 

Morgan did his best to keep up...…

Other photos from the Center (and yes I stuck my kids in a tree...:

If you are actually still here reading all this, thank you. I’ve just really had fun taking pictures lately and wish more than anything I had a decent camera.

Friends

Three weeks ago we went with some friends to an amazingly, wickedly, totally awesome bounce house called “Kangaroo Zoo” here in Ogden. Mason and Morgan would have NOTHING to do with the bounce toys for the first 20 minutes we were there. And I’m not sure what caused it, but it was Morgan who finally decided to start climbing up one. I think he had gotten bored. Mason saw his younger brother climbing into one and decided he would not be outdone by his baby brother. He then climbed in and started jumping. THEY LOVED IT! Mason even got brave enough to go down the giant ‘big-person’ slide. I know the picture is blurry; he was just going waaaaay to fast for me to get a good shot. It is honestly the highest slide I have ever seen inside a building.

We went to the Treehouse Museum that same night with the same friends.

The next day we had a special visitor come help us feed ducks!

And then it happened: that night the boys were soooo boogery (out their eyes, nose, you name it) that we decided to take them to wee-care. Diagnosis? Pink eye and ear infections. Every single one of us was sick at some point over a three week period. I think the last time we went to church as a family in our ward was the 2nd week in February; we’ve just been sick. No friends- no fun. Well…except for the day we went to the park with our other way fun friends Dustin and Laney…hmm..and as I write this I realize that both of our fun friends are “Halls”. Huh. Good name :)

The 2nd half of this week finally saw the end of the sickness. Our same friends called us up to go kite flying this morning. When Mason and Addy saw each other they just started running to each other; Mason yelling “HI! HI! HI!”. I literally have never seen him that excited to see somebody. When they met she gave him a huge hug, and he just sat there grinnin’ from ear to ear. HAHAHAHA! Here are a couple pictures of them flying kites; I was having fun with my photoshop coloring.

It was so much fun to see him having so much fun!!! And I have to admit, even though we were sick, that does not mean we did not get out and enjoy the gorgeous 60 degree weather; because we did! I wouldn’t care if it stayed like this forever :) Oh- I’ll post about our fun President’s Day Fillmore trip at a later time.
