Sunday at the Park

It was a nice day today so after we all had our Sunday afternoon naps we got in the car and went over to the park. Mya is such a dare devil going down the big slides.

ROCKETS VS HAWKS

We decided that the dedicated fans go to the games that are going to be blow outs. We left in the middle of the fourth quarter and Rockets were up by 30+ points. Gerald was cheering for the Hawks so that they would make it a game, but that never happened. Rockets lead the whole game. It is always fun to go to the games.

The opening when they are announcing the players and the turn out all the lights.


This was one of their time out entertainment shows. The funny part was when the inflatable bear ate one of the cheerleaders.

Galveston Beach

Today we took the kids down to the beach!!! Mya loved playing in the sand and Keegan was facinated with the water. We sure are having fun while Kyle is here.

Kyle's in Town

Kyle flew in yesterday for a weekend visit. He is going to be staying with us for a few days. He said he really needed a break from the snow in Rexburg, but I think he really needed a vacation from his job at Meleuka.

Last night we went to a children's museum. He had a lot of hands on activites for the kids to learn about science, history, math (basically all the subjects that you didn't like in school). There were a lot of people there and it was fun.

Face Painting: The kids were able to paint their own faces in celebration of chinese luner year. I was suprised when the paint came of with just water. They have come a long way with face paint. I remember scrubbing my face until it was red and then lettting it ware off after a couple of days

Fishing: Kids were able to take fishing nets and collect as many fish as they could. Then they were supposed to count them, but we never got that far before Mya wanted to go to the next exibit.

Play: This was set up as a theater with stuffed animals that the kids could make up and act out their own plays.

Milking the Cow: Us city folks get plastic cows to milk. There was water that came out of the cow instead of milk too.


Chickens: Live chickens that the kids could look at in an exhibit about eggs.

Lego's: You were supposed to count the lego's but most of the kids ended up throwing them instead.

Day at the Zoo

Today Jessicca and I took the kids to the zoo. I know I posted some pictures of the zoo from when we went before but there is so much to see and hopefully there are some new pictures of things that we saw this time that we didn't see last time. Mya and Keegan get so excited about animals. Mya has been asking me when we were going to go and see the garaff's and the elephants again. Here are some pictures of our fun day.
One of our favorite things to do is ride the carosel. Mya of course chose the elephant and Keegan didn't really care what he was on just as long as he got a turn.

This is my favorite picture of the kids together.
This is really cool. It is a tunnel that you can crawl through that will take you inside the aquarium of fish.
This is the famous Jessicca that I am always talking about. I am so thankful for her friendship.

RAIN

When it rains down here it really rains. Just like when it snows up north it really snows. It looks like it is going to rain most of the day so I can get some housework done. The kids are not so excited because that means they are going to be home for the day. Mya is already begging me to go to the store or over to a friends house. She loves to go out and be social. Here are some pictures from the balcony of our apartment during the rain.

BUBBLE'S

One of Mya's favorite things to do is to blow bubbles out on the patio. Keegan is is not content to just watch anymore. He thinks he is just as big as Mya and what she can do he can do too. The only problem is that he is at the stage where he just makes a mess when he is trying to blow bubbles. He ends up dumping out the whole bottle instead of blowing them. I have learned that I can passify him if he has an unopened bottle that he is holding. Here are some pictures of them having fun this afternoon because it warmed back up outside.

President Hinckley

I was sad to hear that President Hinkley died earlier today. I am sure that he is so happy to be reunited with his wife. He was so sad when she died and talked about the reunion that they were going to have when he was able to join her.

Here is a short newspaper clipping of President Hinckley.....

According to Utah newspaper Deseret News, LDS Church President Gordon B. Hinckley passed away this evening around 7pm. The initial reports say President Hinckley died of causes incident to age. He was 97 years old.
In the October 2007 General Conference, President Hinckley told the audience as his closing remarks "We look foreward to seeing you again next April. I'm 97 and I hope I'm going to make it."

Frost

I woke up this morning and there was frost on the windshield!!! I haven't seen that in a while. They said that we had a cold front coming in and I didn't think that it was going to be that cold. I grew up in Idaho, what they think is cold down here has been tolorable with a sweater. I couldn't find an ice scaper for the winshield. (We must of left them all in Idaho). I had to wait for the car to warm up so that it could defrost it. It was a great little reminder of how I am not missing that below zero temperatures of Idaho. =)
