Our 24th of July Vacation!!














































For the 24th of July we went on a fun mini-vacation. It was so great. We went to so many places and did so many fun things. Here are a few things we did; went to the planetarium at the Gateway, went to a BBQ at my parents house, swimming at the hotel, played some arcade games which Wyatt loves, (Wyatt enjoyed the games as much as we did. I ended up getting 344 tickets at one game. It was crazy and very lucky. Doug won 75 tickets on the same game.), went to the Dinosaur Park, and we went fishing at a fish farm up in Ogden with Brita, Aaron, Brogan and Kamree, Wyatt caught 3 fish (yippeeee!!) and Brogan and Kamree caught 5 fish total!! It was such a fun and quick trip. We did so many fun activities over the weekend. It was nice to get away and enjoy some fun family time together.

Playing in the water at the new Highland Splash Pad!!
















Over the weekend we went to the new Highland Splash Pad. Doug helped design it through his work. Wyatt has so much fun playing in the water. It takes him a little while to get use to it because the water is pretty cold but once he adjusts, he has a great time. He chased Doug down a walking path that has the shape of a river in it that Doug designed. Wyatt loves splashing the water with his hands. It looks like he is trying to hit the water. He has so much fun and laughes after he plays in the water. At the splash pad there is a waterfall, a river that you can walk through that has rocks in the center, some of the rocks have water shooting out of the center of them, and there is a splash pad that has a bunch of different ways the water shoots up through the ground. All of the water in the splash pad varies in length of time that it is on so Wyatt always wonders where the water went when it turns off or goes to a different section. It is a lot of fun to walk through. It is so nice because it has so many different features and variety.
