What a weekend! We're trying to make the most of July 2009 before it ends. We started at Hogle Zoo with BFF's Rachel and Henry. I kept my eye on Henry who kept putting the moves on Gracie. I don't want any funny business until the we sort the dowry out. Anyway, the kids had a great time, even if ours were whiny. Isaac asked for days to see the kangaroo, but the darn thing wasn't out and about. On the ride home, I asked if he had fun, he replied, "didn't even see the kangaroo." He was also disappointed he couldn't kiss a snake, don't ask me where that came from.
Then Justin took off with his brothers and some friends to Causey Reservoir for a quick canoe trip. They canoed to the far side of the lake and camped a night. While there, they did some cliff diving. Brian was the most ambitious, but they all went off the "high one." Trying to make them jealous for leaving early, Randy J. sent the best shot of the bunch on a cliff they missed. Yikes!
Last but not least we made it to the fireworks at Weber State in Ogden (our alma mater). We gave Isaac the full tour and promotional brochure; we hope for the sake of our pocket book he becomes a wildcat. We couldn't believe the scope of campus improvements, its beautiful! For those of you that don't live in Ogden, Weber puts on a symphony by a large pond with cannons out on an island. The lead-in piece to the fireworks is the 1812 Overture, with canons to finish it off. Grandma "Suz" and Brian joined us. Needless to say, our kids have NEVER been up anywhere close to that late.
We may need next weekend to recover!

Best zoo trip ever. Missing my BFFs. Come to DSM. The fair is coming up in a few weeks - in the mood for something deep fried?
