{{ Aquarium }}

  Yesterday we went to the Living Planet Aquarium with our friends. They had never been, and they loved it. Don't mind my ghetto look I have going, I didn't get ready this day really lol

My lil' poser...

He is such a freaking stud!

 So I took this picture (and 2 more) and got informed by a worker that flash photography was not allowed with the octopus because it can damage his sensitive eyes... needless to say I feel horrible and think about how bad I feel constantly. I do hope they can perhaps put up bigger signs so that people like me can actually see it and not be a complete butt like I was! Sorry Mr. Octopus!

 The jellyfish!
 Zayne said these were his favorite! Just like his mom!

 All the kids that went

Me and my bestest lil' buddy by the Rainbow Trout...Just like Zayne set the hook on a few weeks ago!

{{ Calm Down, It is GLITTER }}

Today I made some Calming Glitter Bottles for Havyn and Zayne. They each got to pick what color and help put the glitter in. It makes for a cool toy for them to look at while they calm down, or just to look at.

{{ Colorful Names }}

 Today to keep Z and Havyn occupied and busy, I wrote their names on paper and cut pieces of colored paper into small pieces and had them glue them on. It was really fun for them, and looks really cool when done!

*~* July 4th *~*

The 4th was fun this year, started with Z getting decked out in his 4th of July ::Red::Whilte::Blue clothes and posing for a pic with a flag.


 Then we went with our friends the Graberts and Dumas' to Grannys in Heber for ice cream and fries, I didn't take any pictures while there but snapped a few before we left.

 Later that day we headed back to our friends for a BBQ and fireworks, it was a blast and Z had a lot of fun!

{ Panguitch Lake }

This weekend Zayne and I went to Panguitch Lake with my parents. It was so fun, and we made a lot of memories. We stayed at a place called Bear Paw and it was quaint, that is for sure! We stayed in a tiny little cabin, with no air, no tv, a tiny tiny bath room and kitchen, and NO cell phone service... It was a great break from reality! 



The first day there we went right to the lake and did some fishing, and caught a bunch of them!
 Chilling on the boat getting ready to catch some fish!

 Grandma and Zayne fishin...

 My dads big fish he caught... My mom had caught a big fish but he threw it back, and Zayne caught the biggest of them all but he threw it back... I think he was wanting to be the one who caught the biggest fish and had proof of it! Lol.. I really caught the biggest... he was so big and massive he broke my fishing line and ran off with my hoot and worm! (...and yes, my dad did wear that hat the whole time, stylish as eva!)

 So funny, this was Zaynes face the whole time my dad was gutting the fish.. He would yell "Ew freakin sick!" the whole time.

Pa and Ma bringing in a big 'ol fish!

Zayne LOVED being all boy and playing in the dirt... getting as dirty as he could before he would have to shower!

On the way home we stopped in Panguitch and had breakfast and walked around the main street, the food was SO good, the place we ate was called "Foy's" in case you're ever in the area and down for a good meal! There was a little ally way that had a little thing set up for photos and pics of Butch Cassidy when he was in Panguitch.


Then we went in a little Cowboy store and Zayne loved it! Kept telling me to take pictures of him. They also had a set up where you could look like you were in the saloon, and the lady hooked Zayne up with a cowboy hat and a gun, made for some GREAT pictures!
 My favorite picture of Zayne, making his OUTLAW face!


...and some random pictures of the weekend...
 My son photo bombing...

 Zayne named this chipmunk Theodore after the one from Alvin and the Chipmunks...

It was a REALLY fun time, and hope to go back again soon to catch us some more fish and build some more fun MEMORIES!
