Our visit with Uncle and Aunt Kim

We had family come in from Colorado a few weeks ago and had a great time. We warned them that our house is a zoo but that's what happens with kids. We had been bugging them for a while to come to Utah and visit us. Uncle was going to fly his plane here, but due to the weather they had to drive.

Fun time playing cards

They were here for our anniversary so we decided to get a babysitter and went to Park City. Dan and Mike did the zip line. Kim and I didn't think we could do it because of our shoes but learned later we could of. Us girls just sat and chatted while waiting for the boys.

Dan won!!! It's about time someone beat Mike at something!!

After the zip line, we went shopping down Main Street. We found this purple store so we had to get our picture taken by it since it's our favorite color!!
Main street sure has changed since the last time I was there. There are alot more art galleries then before. We had alot of fun shopping and later they treated us to dinner. It was so nice just to sit and visit and not have to worry about kids running around.
Before they left, they came with us to take Kaiden to his first day of preschool. I thought that was so thoughtful of them. We are so glad they came to visit us!! I hope they come again soon!!

The State Fair

We decided to give in and take the kids to the state fair. Kaiden had been bugging us for a couple of days to take him and we just hate going because 10 years ago when we went it was so dirty. I swore to myself I would never go again. This year it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The kids loved seeing all the animals.

Kaiden was so excited to ride the pony's. He only lasted about one minute because his pony sneezed and scared him.

This bird was Rykers favorite. He couldn't spot staring at it. It is a little funny looking!

Kaiden and Mike played a basketball game. He made a basket and won a crayon. All the games were definitely a rip off.

I didn't think Kaiden would go down this but he did. He had so much fun he made dad take him again!

Kaiden's first day of preschool

What a eventful morning! I thought Kaiden would be really excited to go to school but he wasn't. I had him in summer school in June and the first day he was so excited. After that, he cried every morning I dropped him off. It was about 20 minutes from our house and he thought I was going to leave him there.
His preschool is only two houses down from ours so I thought he would be more comfortable with it since it's close to home. But I was wrong. He cried when he woke up and told us he didn't want to go. Once we got him there, he was fine. He learned to do yoga using a balloon, the shape of a heart and the color red. When we picked him up he said he had fun but he didn't want to go to school anymore.
This week is his second week. He still cries but it keeps getting less and less. He has made some fun projects and met some nice friends. He tells me all the time he wants teacher Becky to move to the mountains so he doesn't have to go. He also tells me she is sick and he can't go if she is sick. He cracks me up.
I think it's going to take some time for him to get use to it and once he does, he will be excited to go. I really can't believe he is in preschool. He is growing up to fast.
