Field trip day for the first graders today. We rode the front runner up to the Treehouse museum in Ogden. The kids got to put on a play of the three little pigs (slightly different then the original version). Jacob was the prince charming on a horse.



They also got to learn about Kings, Queens and knights and make their own magic wand or sceptor. After all of that they got to play in the museum in their groups for awhile. We had never been up this museum before and are now planning on going back it was a lot of fun. I ended up with a ton of cute pix but I try to only post my kids unless I have permission so here are the ones I got of just Jacob.

Milking a cow.



Riding a bull.



Driving the fire truck.



And tracing.



After the museum we walked over to the Ogden temple and ate lunch in the backyard of the Miles Goodyear cabin built in 1845 in the Ogden Canyon. It has been relocated there next to the pioneer museum. The kids were surprised that the entire cabin was about the size of their bedrooms at home. It was a lot of fun and something that I would highly recommend if you are looking for a fun outing for your family everything was within walking distance of the ogden frontrunner station so you could make a whole day of it train ride and all. We will be heading back up there as a family again sometime soon Jacob was already planning our trip on the way home today. Hope everyone is doing good and that you all had a great holiday weekend.

Ok I just got corrected for my blog entry Zach's shoes aren't just plane old basketball shoes they are named after some basketball player named Air Jordan. Oops. I guess that I will never hear the end of this one. I guess I had better get on the internet and see if I can find out who this new player named Air is:)

Hope that everyone has had a good Labor day weekend. We have had a great one just a fun weekend together as the family nothing major. Shoe shopping for the boys. We also saw the movie shorts it was kind of cute and they really enjoyed it. Craig has been off and we have enjoyed having him here with us. He fixed the leaky faucet in the boys bathtub. Dropped my gas tank and replaced the fuel pump I finally have my own car back. We've been working with just one since about a week before the kids got out of school. He has been gone so much that his was just sitting here and he also hasn't been home enough to get mine fixed but it is up and running again. yea!!! I am so greatful to him for his hard work and think that he is absolutely wonderful. I am really glad that he is so smart and able to do so much for us around the house and garage:) He also replaced the breaks on his and as you can see from the picture above last but not least he bathed the dog. Everyones favorite chore I know. He still has a couple of days off of work and we are just going to relax and enjoy the next couple he deserves a big break.

The boys wanted to include pictures of their new shoes.



Jacob's light up you can kind of tell in this picture.



Zach's are just plain old basketball shoes.
