September Fun

A few weeks ago we took the kids to Northwest Trek.  It's a natural wildlife park where we got to see lots of animals and ride on a cool tram ride that the kids absolutely loved.   Megan's favorite part was there were 2 brand new baby deer right next to the road and Jordan liked the herd of elk we watched swimming in the lake. 





We watched this beaver for a long time as he was building his den.  The little guy was camera happy and every time the camera would flash he would do a little trick and come back to the glass, waiting to do it again. 
We finished off the outing with sundaes at McDonald's...or as Megan says...IcDondald's.  I love this picture of Megan with her favorite things, ice cream and Daddy!!!

Andrew's birthday cake this year was a simple jello cheesecake. The kids helped me make it and put on the candles and were squealing with delight when he walked in the door from work, so excited to show it to him. 

I wanted to put down some funny things the kids said this week so I don't forget them.  The other day we were in the car and totally out of the blue Jordan said, "Mommy, Megan's a little too weird for me,  let's just give her back to Jesus."  Megan's funny thing lately is every time I tell her I love her she says, "Well.....I love daddy."

Video for Grandma Sally

I took this video of the girls so I could send it to my mom, since she is missing everybody while she's caring for Marianne in Utah.  For some reason, I couldn't get my e-mail to send it, so here it is Mom (and for anyone else who wants to take a peek.)  We love you Mom, and are thinking of you and Marianne all the time!!!!
