Trip to the aquarium....

Our new Home Teacher works at the aquarium in Sandy. And he got our family free passes to go see the fish. PG and PD were SO excited to go! We told PG that we would after his nap (this was at 9 am) and he said, "I am really tired, can I go take my nap now?" "PG, we have to eat breakfast and lunch first..." "let's eat lunch"....He is smart! :o)
They LOVED it, they couldn't get enough!! Climbing up and seeing the fish, they moved really slow from tank to tank. It was nice that they enjoyed it!
Even KJ and I enjoyed it! :o)
I love glowing Jelly fish! They I think are my favorite, in every aquarium I have visited...they are so calming and beautiful...deadly but beautiful! :o)
cool glowing star fish.
Cool spiky starfish!!
Who is that? NEMO!
The kids wouldn't touch them but they liked to splash in the water and say "look it's Mr. Ray"
(we watch Finding Nemo a LOT!)
As we were walking around we saw our friend feeding a snake so we tapped on the glass and said hello...he came out and took us on a tour "behind the scenes"
This is the view of the sharks from the top! it was pretty cool...
The penguin exhibit wasn't open yet but in our tour we got to go see them too. it was pretty cool. But we are not allowed to tell anyone that we got to go behind the scenes...so SHHHH! :o)

more goings on...

The kids LOVE to wear my shoes...they are so funny!
This is the cake that I made for our Relief Society Birthday Dinner that we did on Tues. night. I think it looked pretty good!
and here is the "Big Mama" at 38 weeks ... only 4 more to go right?
(I hope it is a less than that! - But healthy is the most important!)

New goings on...

KJ had to work late a few nights to fix a problem for a client in IL...and the guy they were helping said when they got it fixed he would send them a Chicago Style pizza...from Chicago.
KJ did his job and the guy followed through...and it came overnighted in dry ice from IL...
We decided to make it a party and make homemade rootbeer with the dry ice.
(he also made a dry ice bomb...with pop bottle and a few of the left over pieces of dry ice...it was cool)
Someone at his work had a birthday so someone else as a joke put like 30+ goldfish on his desk...so we got a fish tank to accomodate some of the orphan fish...PG was SO "patiently" waiting for the tank to be ready to put the fish in...So now we are the proud owners of 3 little goldfish.
Daddy plays with the kids in the evenings and sometimes PG likes to play "Go to School"
First they sleep...
then they get up and go to the table and color and try to write letters at school
then they come home have dinner
and take a bath (Pictured above) and then go back to sleep
It is really cute they LOVE to play with daddy! :o)
and I am grateful for the time I can get other things done. :o)
My Family ROCKS!
