Dinosaur Park

Tuesday was bittersweet. Oma went home to Germany and later we went to Dinosaur Park in Ogden with Grandma and Jan who he calls "Grandma Jan" (all women in their 50's and older are grandmas to Gabe). Gabe was scared of the dinosaurs but later warmed up to them. It was fun.

Bear Lake

Lindsey and her gal pals had a much needed girls day out on Friday and went to the movies with Paisley. On Saturday we took Oma to Bear Lake for her first time. It was such a beautiful day and the air was cool. We found a small island surrounded by shallow water and set up shop. We had a nice picnic and played in the water all afternoon. Gabe made friends with a neighboring family and adopted them as his second family. Afterwards we enjoyed yummy Lakeside pizza and raspberry shakes. Coming out of the canyon Manuel was light on the break and got a speeding ticket for going 16 miles over. Yikes! Not all perfect days have happy endings.

August Fun!

What a busy week. Lindsey's little sister got married on Thursday and we've been to a bunch of showers, parties and dinners. 10 pounds later we've all decided to to take a break from food. Saturday we rode front runner for the first time and went shopping and eating at the Gateway. Not easy with a newborn and a 2 year old but we managed. Gabe loved the train, he was so excited to ride it. Gabe also experienced eating pop rocks for the first time (he won them for good behavior) what a funny moment that was, and he finally got a big boy bed on Monday, he loves to sleep in it. He also loves to hold his baby sister as you can see from the pictures. We also posted pictures of our new basement.
