Zoo with cousins

Since swimming got cancelled this Friday, we decided to hit the Zoo again.  Only this time Justin joined us, as well as a couple of the boys cousins, Megan and Lacy.  We had a lot of fun and the kids got along so well.  The animals weren't quite so active as last week, but out where they could be seen none the less.  Justin got to see his eagles up close and personal since they had them out on display right when we walked in the Zoo.  Really cool!

Just watched the polar bear swim.  He is just getting out of the water.

Silly girl

Happy little one.  She loves to not smile when the camera is in her face.  So I got lucky with these ones.

Utah Hogle Zoo

We finally made it to the  Zoo.  We gave up a day of swimming, but the new exhibit is well worth it.  The boys could have watched the Sea Lions forever.  It was a nice fun adventure.  Even Whitney got a kick out of watching the monkeys swing around.

June

I know, it has been way to long since I posted last and unfortunately I don't have a lot of pictures to post, but here are what I have. 
We have been very busy this past June, mostly with soccer camps.  But on top of that, we have been swimming, playing with cousins who have been in town, going to the summer movies, scouts, attending family reunions, going to parades, visiting the library, and other fun stuff that has come our way.  We still haven't made it to the Zoo, but hope to do that this next week.  Hopefully the new exhibit makes it all worth it.  
The boys are having a lot of fun and have been fairly good helpers this summer.  They are getting to read some new books from the library that they have been wanting to read and staying in shape by running a mile three times a week with me.  
Zayne is finally potty trained and Whitney is almost 3 months old and growing so fast.  Whitney is very much loved and cared for by everyone.  Her brothers can't seem to get enough of her and love to help hold her and care for her.  
I hope to get new pictures of her and the family up soon.

Napping at the family reunion.  A lot of people mentioned that they thought she was a little doll laying there.
