On Friday, August 10, while Kip slept, Jaki took the kids to the Weber County Fair where the boys had spiders painted on their arms by their Grandma Valerie at the library's booth and helped milk a cow in the petting zoo. They also played some games and rode a few rides. Zack won a stuffed animal crab, which he calls 'Crabby', from knocking over all the milk cans. Will won a pink piggy bank from a wheel spin at the America First booth. A storm was blowing in and they made it home just a few minutes before it hit. Here is a picture of the boys with all their prizes from the fair.
On Saturday, August 11, Jaki and the kids went to the free day at the Dinosaur Museum, while Kip was sleeping again, with Christy, Sally and Heather and all the kids. They walked around in a couple groups but ate lunch together at a picnic table. Later that night we had some friends over to the house and played games until about midnight. Just before midnight the older boys all crashed while watching a movie. At about 2 am, awhile after everyone had left and the kids were in their beds, we went out on the trampoline and watched for the meteor shower that was supposed to hit last night. We ended up only seeing a few meteors and decided to go to bed. However, Jaki set her alarm for 5 am and got up to go see if there were any more meteors at that time. There weren't, but the moon was lined up with Mars and Venus and it was beautiful.
Today, August 12, we went to the blessing of Colton and Teresa's baby, Makayla, and had fun at a luncheon afterward where the boys ate a little but played a lot. A little later on today we are going to family dinner with Jaki's family.
So we had a lot of busy fun this weekend. I guess we are trying to squeeze in some things before Zack starts kindergarten. We also found out Zack's teacher is going to be Mrs. Jones and he will be in afternoon kindergarten, which works out great for Jaki's schedule. We will be meeting Mrs. Jones at back to school night which is the 21. That's all for now!
