Come and eat little birdies!





All the places we have been!

So we have done a lot of things this past month, but I haven't been able to get any pictures to download. But today I finally got them to work, so you get them all at once. They are in backward order but you will get the idea. I started trying to write about them and put pictures then I decided to just put the pictures and I would write about them now.

So first (last in picture order) we had Thomas the Train. This is our second year going to ride the best train ever! We went with our friends from Pocatello and the grandparents. It was a lot of fun. This year we made our husbands go with us, and of course they weren't quite as excited as the kids were. But I think they enjoied themselves at least a little bit. Brandon and Aidan definetly loved every minute of it and isn't that all that matters?!

Second we have Lagoon, or as Brandon likes to say "The Goon". I did write info on that in with the pictures. But in a nutshell we have found another thing that Brandon can look forward to. He loves it there!

Third we have Brandon and I's trip to the beach. We went there just last week. My sister had two boys graduate from high school so we went over to the LA area to celebrate that. We spent the first day at the beach. Can I mention that isn't a very good idea because you get sunburnt and it just might ruin the rest of your trip. Brandon and my brother-in-law tried to build a sand castle but the tide never went down so a wave came in and it was gone in a flash. Also because of the tide we couldn't really enjoy the water. I did try to boogy board for a few minutes but not successfully. I am sure the baby enjoyed that ! :)

Last but not least we have the Long Beach Aquarium. We decided to go there the second day on our California trip. It was a lot of fun to see Brandon get excited to see all of the "fishies". He was really excited when he saw all of the Nemo's. He also got to touch some stingrays and sharks, but I wasn't able to get a good angle to get a picture. He touched starfish too, he was suprised that they were hard, because all of the the other ones were soft and slimy. While we were there we also got to feed some birds those pictures are found above this blog. I forgot to put them in. That was pretty cool the birds would just come straight up and land on your arm and eat the nectar right out of these little tiny cups.

So that is the happenings of us in the last month. I will try to be better. I think I have figured out that I have to put my pictures on CD before I can put them on here. So hopefully I will be better at getting things on here.

All the pretty fishes......

The Ladybug Drop, a new found favorite!














The Classic Bulgy the Whale!


We went to "The Goon" (AKA Lagoon). Aunt Dee was able to get us some discount tickets for homeschool day. Brandon was so excited we had to count down to it. I wasn't so excited...it is really hard for me not to ride things I shouldn't. We decided we will definetly be going back next year when I can take Brandon on all of the rides. Everytime we drive by he asks when we can go back. We have to tell him after the baby gets here, because the baby doesn't like rides. Thanks Aunt Dee for the tickets it was a lot of fun!

Thomas the Train



Okay so we wen to Thomas about a month ago and I have tried to download some pictures of it a few times and it hasn't worked so that is why I am so behind. Sorry! Brandon Loves Thomas the Train. We had the opportunity to go and see him with our friends Miranda, Jeff, Aidan, and Harry. Also along for the ride were grandparents and Miranda's sister and her family. Here are some pics from our fun!
