Other Summer Fun - 2011

The few weekdays and weekends that we were home this summer, Connor and I had a great time together while Brad was at work (thanks Braddy, someone has to pay for all these trips! :) )

We frequented the Treehouse Museum (or the "House Museum" as Connor calls it) in Ogden. Story times, tons of great toys/displays, dress-up for different cultures and jobs, and a giant tree in the middle of the building with stairs, bridges, and small crawl spaces for exploring. (June, 2011)



The Jeppsons visited a few times for more motorcycle and 4-wheeler rides around our house. (June, 2011)

Connor loves the park near our house and we met several of our church friends there for playdates. (July, 2011)



We fed (and chased) the ducks at the pond in the Lee's Marketplace parking lot in North Ogden. Lee's gives free day-old bread to feed them.


In July, I joined a Weber County community MOMS Club. Moms in Weber County (LDS and non-LDS) get together and do fun activities together as frequently as 3-4 times per week. Connor and I went to about 3-4 per month during the summer since we were gone so much, but we have so much fun with moms and kids that we wouldn't know otherwise. This is Wheeler Creek hike with our MOMS Club group. We also went to a couple splash pads, the pool, and playdates at parks and other moms' houses in our area. (August, 2011)



Took a drive thru Ogden Canyon (with Brad). (August, 2011)

Watched the deer traipse thru our yard every evening. (August, 2011)



Watched "Rio" at our summer neighborhood block party with s'mores and popcorn. (August, 2011)

Hogle Zoo with Brad's parents. Connor's favorites are the elephants, monkeys, and giraffes. (October, 2011)





We had the best (and busiest summer). I miss the nice weather and can't wait until it gets warm again!
