Sleepy Wyatt!!


Here is a picture of Wyatt totally wiped out.  We had a party get together last Saturday to celebrate Wyatt's, my dad's and my brother Tyler's birthdays.  It was so fun.  We had a BBQ, the kids/cousins and my dad played in the water (pool, sprinklers, slip 'n slide, etc.), everyone played with water balloons, we opened gifts, had cake and ice cream, played basketball, etc.  I think Wyatt was so tired from all of the excitement.  He had laid on the bed to pet his cat and this is where I found him zonked out.

Wyatt's Last Tee Ball Game!!



Wyatt had his last Tee Ball game on Saturday June 22nd.  Wyatt did a great job in tee ball.  He was very focused and didn't want to get interrupted during the game.  He hit very well too.  At his last game he got a metal, a completion certificate, a ticket to got to a Salt Lake Bees Game, and a discount card to get into Denny's and other venues.  He was so excited to get his medal.  Way to go Wyatt!!

Silly Cats!!


Here is how our cats have been sleeping lately.  Wyatt's cat is a hoot.  His cat is the one sprawled out on his back with his bell up.  Apparently he is comfortable.

Wyatt's Friend Birthday Party!!












For Wyatt's friend birthday party this year he decided he wanted to go see a movie in the theater.  We went to the Larry H Miller Megaplex by Thanksgiving Point.  We picked up 5 of his friends, Justin, Johnny, Cameron, Jackson, and Maggie.  It was awesome what the movie theater does for a birthday party with their package.  They had tables decorated and set up, they had the area roped off with a sign that said Reserved for Wyatt's birthday party with a  picture of the movie we were seeing (Monsters University in 3D), they had balloons to decorate the area, we had a host waiting there to greet us, we had reserved our seats in advance, he took all the kids drink and treat orders, he brought over the drinks first, then about 6 employees met us in the theater with the kids individual popcorn and treats, they waited for a few more people to show up in the theater and turned down the sound, he announced that we were there celebrating Wyatt's birthday and had everyone sing to him.  It was pretty cool.  Wyatt had asked me this morning if they were going to sing and I told him maybe.  I didn't want to ruin the surprise.  I told Doug that they were going to sing when we got to the theater.  While we were in the movie they held the gifts in a special spot so they wouldn't get taken as well.  They had them back out on the tables when the movies was done.  After the movie got over we headed back out to the tables, had cupcakes and opened gifts.  They gave Wyatt a T-Shirt and a bounce back pass for a future movie for him to get in for free.  It turned out to be a really fun birthday party.

Wyatt's 6th Birthday!!






Wyatt had his 6th birthday on June 19th.  Time has gone by so fast.  For his birthday he opened presents right off the bat.  We gave him a basketball hoop and ball, his own tennis racket and balls, new pajamas, water balloons, a 3D Jake and the Never land Pirates puzzle, soft bullets for his Nerf guns, a ball Frisbee, etc.  We then set up his basketball hoop.  That has been his favorite thing of all.  We then played basketball with him.  His friend Justin came and brought him a drink and a kit kat treat.  It was very kind of him.  They played for a bit.  For his birthday I had received an e-mail from Boondocks for Wyatt to get a free unlimited pass for the day.  We went there for about 4 hours or so.  It was so great.  Doug got an unlimited pass as well.  We all played 2 rounds of miniature golf together.  That was Wyatt's favorite thing to do there.  He wanted to go again but we ran out of time.  Doug and Wyatt also did the go kart racing around the track twice.  The first time around Wyatt was screaming "Wa hoo" and "this is awesome!!"  They also did water bumper boats.  They were trying not to get too soaked but that didn't last very long.  When they got done with the bumper boats a girl that was in there the same time told Wyatt that he did a great job and gave him a high five.  We also played some arcade games and he played in a kid area called the Kiddie Cove.  It was quite the afternoon.  We then went out to eat at Olive Garden.  He said he had the best day ever.

Alpine Splash Pad!!


Earlier this week while Doug was home, we went up to the splash pad in Alpine.  My sister Kelleen had shown me where it was because they use to live close to it.  Doug hadn't been to that one before.  It was really fun.  Doug and Wyatt had a fun time running through the water.  They both got soaked.

A Day at the Zoo with the Cousins!!

 Lego Penguins


 This polar bear was made of Lego's.  It took 1 day to get just one of the eyes done.  It took a total of 1100 hours to get it completely done.
Recently we went to the zoo with my sister Jenni and her 2 girls, my mom and my sisters 3 kids, my cousin Cara and her 2 girls and a friend.  It was really fun and hot.  We went and saw some of the animals then had lunch.  We went to a bird show they had that afternoon which was really cool.  They also had a bunch of displays of animals made out of Lego's.  It was awesome.  The bird show was so great.  They had the birds fly over the crowd.  They also had a chicken and some other birds run behind in the background.  It was funny.  All of the cousins did awesome and had a great time.  They didn't want to leave.

Doug Sleeping!!


One afternoon as I was getting dinner ready I found Doug asleep like this on the couch.  I had to snap some photos because I was surprised that he could sleep in that position.  Funny.

Eagle Mountain City Carnival!!







Every year Eagle Mountain City has their city days.  There are a variety of activities that they hold each year.  We went to the family fun night, the carnival and rides, the movie in the park (Hotel Transylvania), the demolition derby, and the parade.  It was a lot of fun.  These pictures are when we went to the carnival.  It was chilly and had been raining.  As soon as we were leaving the sun came out.  We ran into my friend Hillary, and her boys Justin and Fisher.  Wyatt and Justin are best friends.  They went on some rides together while we were there as well.  It was a blast!!
