Disney Adventures

I am finally putting the rest of our trip to California on here. We got to go to Disneyland and California Adventures for two days without our children. It was fun but it made me miss them. We went to Disneyland for our honeymoon so it was fun to be there on our 9 year anniversary. They gave us Happy Anniversary buttons so wherever we went people would yell out "Congratulations" or "Happy Annivesary" it was funny. We really enjoyed California Adventure since it was our first time there. I would highly recommend Soarin over California, unless you are afraid of heights. We went on every ride except Nemo because the line is always too long, and some of the kid rides. It was nice to have a break from life and to have fun without children whinning.!

Chris almost got ran over by the huge rolling ball. Below is my cute orange bug. Too bad it didn't go very fast :(

Bike Adventures

So today for Labor Day we couldn't really go anywhere because girls have been moving in and out all day. So we decided to take advantage of the last day of the free stuff on our starving student card. I always thought it would be fun but Chris thought it was a waste of gas. So today in the 50 something degree weather we rode our bikes around town and got all the free stuff for our dinner. Some of the things we got were, a pretzel from Were Twisted, Lemonade from Frank's, a piece of chocolate from Florences, french fries and frozen custard from The Backyard, crazy bread from Little Caesars, cookie dough from Papa Murphy's, a lion house roll from Deseret book, chips and salsa from Bajio and chocolate mousse cake from Gandalfo's. Not much of this was healthy so we probably won't be doing this again anytime soon. It was just fun for the kids because they love going on bike rides, and we sure needed the exercise after all the junk food.

Fun In the Sun

Chris and I were able to go to California a couple weeks ago to celebrate our 9 year anniversary. It was a ton of fun. The first day we met my sister Kristen at Newport. We enjoyed the sun for awhile and then had lunch in downtown Huntington.

Then we went to an Angel game that night. We had really close seats as you can see. It was Chris' first major league game. We had so much fun. We didn't have any foul balls come our way though. It was a really good game. They were tied and went into extra innings and ended up losing it in the bottom of the 12th. It was nice to have fun while our kids were with grandma in Utah!

Hogle Zoo

So this is when we went to the Hogle Zoo two weeks ago. I am finally going to try and catch up with my blogging. We went to the zoo with my family before Bobby and Kierra left for Missouri. It was fun to see all the animals that we don't have here at our zoo in Idaho. Dylan loves the elephants and the white aligator was pretty cool. I will try to put pictures of our anniversary trip to California soon.

OUCH !!

This morning before church Chris turned around to get Dylan some cereal and Dylan fell of our bench at the table and found the baseboard with his head. . We hurried to the ER and he had to get 11 staples. It was pretty tramatic for all of us. Hayley couldn't handle it so her aunt Amy came and got her and they went and had a tea party to distract her. The doctor came in and said okay we are going to have you wrap him up in this sheet and your gonna have to sit on him. She wasn't kidding. So as three of us were holding him down she started stapling his head back together. I was counting in my head and they just kept on going. After she was done she started counting them but I already knew there were 11. But somehow he is still as happy as can be. He didn't get any pain medication or anything, they just numbed the wound. I will I could have that kind of pain tolerance. I am so not looking forward to next Sunday when we have to go get the staples removed :(
