Busy little Bees!

Lots has been going on in April and May.  We went to the Utah Utes Red and White game at the stadium and had a great time. It was perfect weather and fun.  We had to see Swoop of course and he gave Cooper a high five everytime we ran into him which was about 5 times during the game. The kids love him.  We ate hotdogs, candy and slushies. It was a yummy lunch. Uncle Cj came with us and it was fun he came too. 

We went to Discovery Gateway and let the kids explore and play. I love it there but it is always so busy I hate fighting the crowds. Here are the pictures we took.

Here are just pictures of the kids outside playing.

Grandma Connie went on a trip to Hawaii and brought the kids some cute Hawaiian clothes.

We went up to Idaho a couple weekends ago and went to Yellowstones Bear World in Rexburg.

  I have to admit we had a blast! We stopped and picked up my Grandma Mead and then we met Dad, Carma, Mel and Phil at Bear World. First we met some baby bear cubs. They were darling. You could even pet them if you wanted.

Then we went and let the kids ride some rides they had there. Cooper loved it!!

After the rides we went to the petting zoo and we were able to pet chickens, a huge hog, goats, a deer, peacock, and a lamb.

We then went to explore the outdoors in our car...we were able to see moose, deer, wolves, and bears. It was quite exciting.

 As we were leaving a big bear started climbing on our car.. I turned around and this was in my window...

It was pretty exciting and my dad had video of the whole thing because they were behind us. It was pretty cool. After we drove through the park, we realized you could do the tour bus and be out in the open on top of the bus. We paid to do it and had a blast.  The bears were amazing up close and we got to feed them lots of food. One bear would even wave to you if you waved first. It was awesome.

After this fun adventure it was off the Mel and Phils to have dinner and relax. Ryan and Alex were able to join us and then we went out to dads and started a fire and roasted smores.  It was a great evening of talking and nice weather.

The next morning we got up and went to visit my moms grave. I sure do miss her.

 We took a picture and then we headed out the Civil Defense Caves in Rexburg. I was surprised that after living in Rexburg for 21 years I had not ever been here before.  It was a neat experience and we plan on going back when we bring a little bit more proper gear. The kids thought it was pretty cool.  It is so dark inside we had to bring flashlights and was pretty cold.  We will visit this place again for sure.

Of course, Grandpa had to let the kids drive the tractor. So Funny they love to ride this.

This week we were able to go to Tracy Aviary and see the birds. We had fun and it is nice to just go, walk around, feed the ducks, and take a picnic.

To end our blog today, I leave you with my little lovies!!
