One for the family history book

We are cramming three days of notable activities in one exciting post, so get comfy.

Our fam enjoyed the annual Lagoon trip courtesy of Hub's work. Ike is big enough to actually go on some fun rides like the infamous white roller coaster and he loved bragging about it. Noelle is big enough to go on all the little kid rides, but she despised being strapped in and would cry when she couldn't get out of her own free will. The first pic is of waiting in line for the Merry-Go-Round in the hopes that Noelle would be happy and stay in place. And she did for about three minutes.

My favorite was to watch the three boys in the Bumper Cars trying to crash into each other. Good aggressive fun and nobody cried. Can't beat it.


The next day we went to the Treehouse Museum in Ogden. This was a very fun place and it makes me wonder why there were no kid-friendly museums when I was young. Ethan especially loved it and could have stayed twice as long as his older brothers. This is Hub and Noelle having a jam session in the music room:

We then went to HAFB (this was very similar to a certain C Reunion we had several years ago LC!) But it's better than the last time we went since they added a children's learning center with dressup clothes and a cockpit to play in. The boys loved this place and you can't beat free admission.

Mitch and Ike testing out their pilot skills with Ethan below in official attire.



We returned home in time for the first day of school. In spite of my previous post and being 'giddy' to send them back, I actually had a sad dropoff. It's hard letting your kids be indoctrinated half of their waking hours by other people. Ethan did his best to cheer me up by telling me that I could go home and fly paper airplanes with him and 'maybe we could go to the park?' Needless to say, he actually wasn't sad to be the king of the castle for a few hours of the day.


Above is Ike and Mitch before the send off. And yes, Ike did get some new school clothes, but for those of you who see him regularly you will know he prefers to wear this athletic outfit about 6 out of 7 days of the week. Since the school dress code prohibits sleeveless tops, he was lucky that his baseball shirt was a perfect match for underneath (who knew that bright orange Orioles shirt that he's had for two teams now would come in handy?)

talk about keeping really busy! Now I'm feeling a tad lazy about having just read books and cleaned house for the last few days...

It looks like some serious fun! How come you didn't take a picture of the fun night at the hotel? Did you get a pool?

I do love Ike's Molly. I think I can't even imagine him in jeans. But post a picture when he wears them.

Glad you didn't try Disneyland since Noelle wasn't cooperative with rides. That would have been a long drive and a big ticket to have tears! I would say that was a GRAND finale for the summer. Glad you got back in time for school, I know ALL kids are just dying to get back to that fun "sit in your seat" for 6 hrs. gig, NOT! I'm sooo impressed though...Mitchell and Isaac really have great attitudes about school, at least in their comments on the way home.

Good job being a fun Mom Megz. It looks like it went well. I wonder what Dan would have done on those rides? He really wanted to ride the carousel on ID but I was too cheap.
