September 2009

Fun in the sun. Here the boys are in Arizona riding the kids train at the train park - a family tradition followed up by going to the Sprinkles cupcake store to get a yummy treat.
Howdy cowboy! James loves going to school and they had a "western days" that the kids could dress up like cowboys. James looked so cute!

Happy Birthday Jacob! Our little guy turned 3! We cannot believe it. He wanted to have a "Finding Nemo" birthday party. It was so much fun - pinata, games, coloring, presents. He even choose to go to Red Lobster for his birthday dinner to finish off the ocean theme of his big day. We love you Jacob!


The Big Yellow Slide at the Utah State Fair Park. All four of us lined up and slide down this. The first time was a little scary but we all wanted to slide again - the second time was just fun!






Here is Alan and the boys on the beach in front of our hotel. Kauai was so beautiful! The little black spot in the ocean behind James' head is a seal that swam up and down the beach and then came up on the sand and covered itself with sand. We had just seen a turtle in the water about 20 feet behind where Alan is. We also went snorkling here and there were so many fish!

Chickens Are Everywhere!
Here are some that we are bribing into coming into our room with little pieces of bread or
fish crackers. It was pretty entertaining to see how far into the room they would come! The boys wanted to catch one REALLY badly....and then eat it for dinner. We are REALLY glad they were never able to! The chickens weren't too smart though - they would crow ALL DAY LONG!


Here is a cute hawaiian couple.

This was taken on the grounds at the condo we were staying at. It was so green and pretty there.
