More Summer Fun

THINGS WE DID THIS SUMMER
We were able to take my train loving boys on the Heber Creeper.
It was a hot day and we sat in an outside car.
They loved the engine and were naming all the cars at the station.
Mom and the boys (Todd had to work)
The Boys with Grandma Davis


Excited for the ride.
(Note they are both wearing their favorite T-shirts, which they would wear everyday if I let them.)
We were Robbed!! Here is one of the Outlaws!

Stickum' Up!! Michael kept his hands up the whole time
(except when eating the chocolate coin they gave him.)

Jake and Derek with their hands in the air

Another thing Michael did was to take swimming lessons at Draper Pool.
We went twice a week for 3 weeks and he loved it!!
Jake wasn't into water this year, but maybe next year he can take some too.
We went to the Living Planet Aquarium and they were fascinated by all the animals.
Jake says this is a snake. Pretty close.

This is the entrance to the South American Section

T-Ball

Michael played T-Ball this summer. He liked to hit, but never quite learned where 1st base was. It didn't help that he liked to turn his helmet backwards and run without seeing.
When he did catch the ball, he was good to throw it to 1st, but


Most of the time he was bored and not interested in chasing the ball down.

He did like to dog pile and wrestle for the ball.

But, like any good thing, it always ended with a snack.
I know. Who wants to be on a sports team named the Turtles :)
