We were lucky enough to be able to go to the zoo with Ry's entire family before we moved to Big Water!
Aiden LOVES his cousins!!
My sweet little Asher.
Jackson and Aiden are the best of friends!
The big old croc behind him - it's HUGE!!
Aiden was SO excited to see the Giraffes! That's actually all he wanted to see :)
2 Little Monkeys!
Of course we had to let the kids play on the playground before we left!
City Creek Center
We went to City Creek Center after the zoo to check out the shops and let the kids play. They have this really neat little play area for the kids next to the food court. It has dinosaurs everywhere - I would've taken more pictures, but you'd be amazed how quick Asher is - and how many people don't watch their children - just sayin!
They also have this neat outdoor water area the kids could go play in!
Both Aiden and Asher were loving it! (so were the other grandkids - they were SOAKED by the time we were done!)
He did the funniest crawl for a while!
Miss Capri and Asher
Aiden got sprayed right in the face - it was pretty funny!
Big Water
We had the opportunity to live in a really neat little place for a few month called Big Water, UT. It's just North of Lake Powell. It was GORGEOUS!!
That's Lone Rock - we went swimming there a few times - it was about 10 minutes from our house.
One the drive there we passed a few neat things - this was some restaurant and yes they are the "Home of the HO made pies" You did not read that wrong lol
This was our house! It's the side of it - but still you get the idea :)
Doug and Terry Visiting Big Water
Doug and Terry were able to come down and see our place. We LOVE having them visit!
All the Guys!
This was the day they left. Aiden was sad, but we had a great time while they were there!
Eclipse
The day Doug and Terry left was the Solar Eclipse - we were in a PRIME location to see it! We were able to see the full eclipse. It was so neat!
Yes - this picture is awful - be it was exciting so we had to try to take a picture obviously!!
Asher's 1st time feeding himself
It was a messy ordeal - but he was very proud of himself!
Then decided spoons were too much work!
The Swasey's Come to Visit
My entire family was able to come visit us! It was awesome to see them all!
Really?
Look at these 2 gigglers!
We went down to the Lake and yes - we got stuck in the sand. Thank goodness my big strong siblings were there to help!!
Lone Rock
It was FREEZING!!!
Ash loves the water!
I finally went out there - after much bribing!
Big Water Fish Hatchery
Ry worked at the Hatchery in Big Water for a few months. It was a good experience for him! Those little things you see on the pipes are tadpoles - they were a HUGE problem down there! Ry had to dispose of them many time!
They use outdoor ponds down there to raise their fish
Ry had to sweep out the drained ponds - he had a lot of those kinds of "fun" jobs :)
Happy little guy in the car - sorry it's sideways.
That would be a scarecrow - there was a huge problem with birds down there. They had to kill a couple because they'd eat large amounts of fish
The Big Water Burn Pile - dangerous - and it was located next to the baseball diamond haha
