FrontRunner Fun?

On Monday, I called my friend, Carley to see if she wanted to go with us to ride the new FrontRunner train to Salt Lake. We thought it would be so fun to take the kids on a train ride. We did have a great time, but it was sure a lot of work. As we were standing at the platform waiting for the train, I realized that I didn't have IL's "leash" for her bear backpack. I panicked because IL is known to wander off, giving no thought as to where her mommy is. Carley assured me that everything would be alright, and between the two of us, we would be able to keep track of her. We decided that if we were able to make it back to Clearfield with all of our kids and no injuries, we would consider the day a success. We did make it home in one piece, thank goodness. It really was a fun day, and thanks to Carley's help, IL made it home with us!
Here is Carley with the her two children, and IL on the train to Salt Lake.


Here is four out of the five children on train.

We went on the last day about 6. Totally packed. Our kids were hungry and we didn't last long. The trains weren't running on time, so it was crazy, but still fun. I'm sorry we missed you yesterday. Next time you come to temple square let us know. We'd love to join you.

Scotlyn's Birthday Party

Scotlyn's birthday is this coming Thursday, but because her birthday always falls around General Conference time, we try to have her party the week before conference. She has been counting down the days until her party all week. It was a lot of fun, and was so nice to have her party outside this year. Every year on her birthday, the weather has been cold, until this year. This is a picture of her a couple of days ago, when she decided she was going to build a hot air balloon and fly to Salt Lake. She packed a change of clothes in her backpack and took food with her in the box. She also had a few toys with her, but when she was ready to fly, she realized that there was not room for her to sit in the box. She kept saying to me, "Mom, this is really going to work. I'm going to Salt Lake, I'll be back later". It was too cute. She never did make it to Salt Lake, but she didn't seem too disappointed that she didn't fly. I love how at this age, they lo...
