Just a few random pictures of things that we did in July.
While Skylar and Sarah were off to Ben's wedding we had the kids for the morning. We took them to the days of '47 Parade and then had a yummy breakfast at Little America. The kids enjoyed the parade for couple of hours and then got a little bored so we headed off to breakfast.
I always love the floats and especially the bagpipe band:)
Brady got new glasses to correct his lazy eye. He looks super cute in them!
Coco still loves the suckers in the pantry!
We hit the Nickelcade for Sarah's birthday date. We just got these two pictures of Rick and I playing games but none of the birthday girl. We had fun playing Pinball, Pacman, Air Hockey and others. After the arcade we went to dinner at a new restaurant called From Scratch. It was good food and good company! Again no pictures:(
Daisy in her Daisy outfit and little Eric looking as cute as ever.
For Sarah's birthday we offered to watch the kids while they had a getaway date. We got to take the kids to the Deseret Peak Pool and had a really fun time there. Charles and Henry loved going down the slide and practicing their swimming. They also loved looking around under the water with their goggles! I love the pool and have so much fun when we go!
For Kendra's birthday we also watched her kids while her she and Brach went on an overnighter date as well. I wanted to take the kids to the Deseret Peak Pool just like I did with the Phelps kids but that weekend the Country Fanfest was happening so the pool was only open for those going to Fanfest.
Our second option was to go to the Pratt pool (indoor) in Tooele. I was supposed to meet Rick there to help with all of the kids but he was running behind so super grandma did it ALL ON HER OWN!
We stayed in the kiddie area for the most part. Chloe fell asleep for a bit and while Rafe sat with her I was able to take Scout and Brady through the lazy river a couple of times. They kept wanting to go over and over. We had a good time! Rick met us just as we were leaving the pool and then we headed over to Jim's Restaurant for dinner. Before the night ended we took a ranger ride over to the sunshine shack for a shaved ice. The kids were happy to have a fun treat! After the kids' night baths we settled down by watching a movie. Whew! It was a busy night!
The next morning we got the kids up early to get to the Downtown Farmer's Market. We tried lots of samples from popcorn to peaches to salsa. I bought peaches and they were SOOO good! I took them to Vegas and shared them with grandma and grandpa Hafen throughout the whole next week.
We got to get up close and personal with a couple of birds. The owl was really cool. The African Raven would take the dollar donations in his beak and put them in a box. The kids loved that!
We picked up some lo mean noodles for a late morning snack.
Then we ran into Skylar and Sarah. They went to the Market too!
Here are the kids getting a fun pin.
Meanwhile, while we were taking care of the kids, Brach and Kendra were living it up for her birthday. They had a Mexican (big surprise there) dinner and some CHIP cookies for dessert.
Anyway, some fun times in the month of July! Bring on August activities!!
