FUN TIMES WITH GRAMMY

We were lucky to have Mark's mom spend the week with us this past week! We also got to spend a little time with Mark's brother and his family! Here are some of the fun times we had. Enjoy all the pictures:)

We spent most of the weekend with Mark's brother Ben and his wife, Mary and their two kids, Joshua and Lucy. On saturday we went to the Church History Museum, Liberty Park, Cakewalk Baking Company (for some yummy vegan treats), and then out to lunch! After two days of travel and some less than ideal nights of sleeping, a nice Sunday nap was needed!

Explosions! - Baking soda with food coloring and then pour vinegar over it! Alexander loved this soooo much we went through two huge costco size bottles of vinegar!

Grammy showing Melody that it was okay to touch it!

MOON MUD - It is pretty fun stuff! Kind of hard to explain- it gets hard when you push on it or squeeze it, but if you just hold it, it runs through your fingers!

FINGER PAINTING - with shaving cream! Alexander's favorite part was the clean-up because he liked watching it dissolve in the water and go down the sink.

Melody was a little apprehensive at first, but then she went crazy!

PUZZLES!

THE PARK - Mark didn't have to go to work until 12 on friday so went to the park across from our library. Here is Mark, Grammy and Alexander. Melody spent most of her time on the swings!

BINGHAM COPPER MINES - the largest open copper mine in the world! The tires on their BIG trucks cost $50,000 each! They are some bigggg tires!

DRAPER TEMPLE - Alexander really wanted to go inside, but we told him we needed to have our Sunday clothes on. When we got back in the car to leave he asked to go home and put on his sunday clothes! It was a beautiful day!

As Grammy was getting into the van to leave today Alexander looked out the window and said "I want Grammy to come back. I miss Grammy." It was great to see family and my kiddo's had such a wonderful time!!
