Here are a couple of pictures of Wyatt while he was riding a small roller coaster. It started out going forwards and then would go backwards. Wyatt had a blast on this ride!! He rode it 2 or 3 times. He had a lot of fun!!
Back at the end of May/begining of June they were having vendor booths and carnival rides as part of the Pony Express Days through our city. I had set up a booth and took Wyatt over to ride some of the rides. Here he is in a car driving. He was a little scared at first but once he got going he had a lot of fun. He was the only one on the ride at the time!!
Yesterday we had a family party for Wyatt at the splash pad too. It was so fun. We had my parents, my brother Tyler, Doug's parents, Brita & Aaron & kids, Jenni & Keld & Lynlee, John & Cheryl & kids, there. It was great. Wyatt was at the splash pad in Highland all day to celebrate his birthday. He had such a great time. I made him a basketball cake for his birthday this year since that is what he requested. He had fun playing with all of his cousins. Thank you to everyone who came to help celebrate Wyatt's birthday. He had a great day!!
Yesterday was Wyatt's 3rd birthday. This year he wanted to have a friend party and told me the friends that he wanted to come. It was so much fun. We went to the splash pad and took a canopy with us that we decorated with sports themed stuff. Wyatt had 5 of his friends come to his party - Nathan, Johnny, Camrie, Halle, & Jaxon. They all had a great time. It was so much fun!!
This last weekend Doug took Wyatt on his first campout. It was the father's and son's campout with our ward. They had a lot of fun. They made dinner and had a fireside on Friday night. On Saturday they had breakfast and were racing sailboats. Doug said that Wyatt did really well sleeping. They ended up sleeping in a trailer that our friends own. Doug said that by the time that they got there, there wasn't a place to put up a tent because there was such a great turn out.
For Doug's birthday this year we went to the zoo. It has become a tradition to go to the zoo on his birthday. It is really fun. This year we went on a train ride, Wyatt went on the carousel, Wyatt played in the play area, etc. Those were all new things we did that we hadn't done before. We saw a baby elephant, 2 large elephants, giraffe's, hippos, tigers, etc. It was a great time.
We also went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. I love their scones or rolls. They are very yummy. We tried their brownie with ice cream. It was so rich and very yummy!! They also pulled Doug up and had him sit on a saddle to wish him a happy birthday. It was a hoot. I think Doug had a good birthday.
Here are a few photos from our activities for Easter. Wyatt went on an Easter Egg Hunt in our yard for a ward activity, he went on an Easter Egg Hunt over at Thanksgiving point, he got a bunch of fun stuff from the Easter Bunny in his basket, he went on an Easter Egg Hunt at Doug's parents house this year and we had a very yummy lunch. We had a lot of activities that we did and Wyatt had a great time. We also had a couple of family home evenings about the meaning of Easter and Wyatt was sad when he heard that Jesus had died. It was cute to see him listen to the lesson and react. We had a great Easter holiday.
