Splash Park

Just some cute pictures from the splash park. We went one day while Austin was at school.

Austin's First Day of School

Austin started school on July 27th, the school he is attending is a year round school that is why he started so early. His school is Eastlake Elementary and his teacher is Mrs. Pearson. He was very excited to start first grade, but a little nervous about going to a new school. I think he is starting to adjust. I sure can't believe my little Austin is a first grader!
The one cool thing is that he gets to go to school with his cousins. He also gets to ride the bus which he loves and it is so great for me.

Hogle Zoo

A couple of weeks ago I took the kids to the Hogle Zoo. We went with Jenny, Pam, and their kid (friends from Arkansas). It was fun even though, it was hot and that zoo has a lot of hills compared to the flat zoo in North Dakota. I think my favorite part was seeing baby Zuri the elephant.

Weekend in Vernal

A few weekends ago all of Nick's family minus a couple went out to his parents house in Vernal for a little celebration of the June birthdays. Angie did all of the planning her little Fynlee turned 1, we had a great time hanging out, eating, and playing fun games. I took a lot of pictures and it was very hard to pick just a couple. (I put June on all of the collages but it was actually July.)

Kennecott Copper Mine

The copper mine is really impressive. This was the site for Nick's thesis project so he wanted to take us up there and show it off a little. I had never been to the visitor center and that close to the pit. It was really cool, it was also fun to hear how much Nick knows about it. While he was telling me different things several people around us started asking him questions. It was a fun little day trip to check out the mine.
