Week of Firsts!!

Last week I took the kids to the Thanksgiving point Dinosaur museum of ancient life. We have never been there before and so we thought we would give it a try.


It was 2 buck Tuesday's and I think every mom and kid from Utah county decided to go. It was pure madness. We waited in line outside for over half an hour and then once inside, we were smashed like sardines. It was crazy. If it was like this any other day, I would not have paid to go, but for 2 bucks I had to try it. The kids first went to this room that had activities to see how things work and move, like the discovery gateway.


Cooper had a lot of fun in here and Cayman was trying to see how fast she could pedal to light up the 4 lights. We then moved on to the rest of the museum of dinosaurs. Here are some pics.

They got to dig for fossils in the sand room and Cooper loved that!! Cayman loved this sand and water table.

Cooper wouldn't even touch it. We had fun and then came home. It was so crowded.
Cayman has started one of her preschool's this week.
She is going to Little Learners Preschool up on Davis Blvd. She goes here 2 days a week for 2 1/2 hours. Her teacher is Miss Angela, who I know from Sugar Salem High School. Her name then was Angela Clinton and her mom was a teacher too. Cayman is really excited to be going to school and I hope she makes great new friends and learns a lot. She starts her 2nd preschool in 2 weeks at Orchard Elementary. I hope during Caymans School time, Cooper and I can get in some mommy and son time. It will be fun to be with just him.
Cayman also started playing soccer.

Her team is the green Jaguars and they had their first game Tuesday night. We had fun watching the little girls run around and make some points. Cayman actually made a few!! Way to go girlie!! She was pretty tired and it was a hot night but she did good! I hope she has fun. We got a sno cone afterwards and then ate pizza. It was fun!!
We went up to Park City this weekend to get Cayman some school clothes and my brother Ryan went with us. We ate at Rocky mountain pizza and then headed up the mountain. We had fun shopping and uncle Ry got Cayman a Justin Bieber t-shirt. Cayman has Bieber fever and it is so funny. Aunt Mel got her a Justin Bieber poster last time we saw her. On our way home from Park city we went on a little drive thru Guardsman pass and we happened to see 6 moose. Pretty cool!! Then we all took naps and Cayman had a good pillow! That night we had a BBQ with Alli and Paul and then went and saw the movie The Help. It was great!! I will post more next week after we return from Disneyland!! Yay!!
