Gateway Childrens Museum

So this week the kids and I have been creative to find cheap fun activities to do since we couldn't go away like everyone else for Spring Break.

So we have been swimming and playing raquetball and gaming at home and other things. But yesterday we splurged and went to the childrens museum at the Gateway Mall in SLC.

I have heard over and over it is worth the money definately take your kids. Well I finally did and yep it was worth the money we spent a little more to get a 6 month pass.

We learned all about the body and how it works on Sesame Street. Then we got to board a Life Flight Helicopter and decided that was the last time we ever wanted to be in one.
But we are thankful they are here to help those that really need them, like Aunt Tonia. It was simply amazing the grocery shopping was wonderful and all the kids loved the imaginative room upstairs where they had all sorts of things to create with. It was one fun day and if you haven't been you should go. It was $8.50 a person heck like Troys says thats as much as a movie these days.

West Canyon

So this weekend our whole family felt the urge to go away and be together for a little healing time. So we went way out in the West Desert toward Dugway.
Kyle and some of his friends also decided to go to the same place so we went with them and shared mom and dads trailer. Which makes this a little less stressful on me being the mom and making sure the kids are warm and clean.
So it was a good weekend. We went back to the Geode Beds next to Topaz Mountain and found some really cool Geodes. Anyway it was some great fun and good memories.

Dash

So we finally did it! We added on to our family. We have a new member he is a boy we adopted him on April 5th. Dash is a Labradoddle, which is a mix between a lab and a poodle. He is a very sweet boy, although we are working through some obedience issues. However he is great with the kids and we feel he is teaching them alot. We took Dash camping with us this weekend and he was a real trooper. So here is to our first indoor pet since our chipmunks. Wish us a little luck! Yes Tonia, Terry's sister who just passed away inspired us to add on to our family. She was such a dog lover it just seemed like the perfect time, the time we have been waiting for.
