Dinosaurs!

We took the kids to the Dinosaur Park a few weeks ago. It was lots of fun. The kids loved it. We went a couple years ago when I was pregnant with Derek but it was fun to go again. The best part was seeing Derek's face... he absolutely LOVED it! He didn't really know what to think at first, and he was a little scared, but he warmed up real fast and was dragging us to all the different dinosaurs over and over again.







There was even a place where the kids could "dig for dinosaur fossils". I thought that was pretty neat. They had lots of fun doing that.



During Halloween they make the place spooky with skeletons and creepy things. The kids were teasing Duane saying this was what he looked like when he saw the scary dinosaurs.


We had a really fun time. If you have never been, it's a cool place to take your kids... even us "big kids" had a great time.

I'm back!

YAY!!! I'm finally able to update my blog! Our computer was giving us a hard time and not working very well. Fortunatley, my dad is a "computer WIZ" so he got it back on track. Here's the "WIZ" himself...

Not to be confused with this guy, who came around halloween time.


Then we moved a couple months ago so we didn't have internet for a while plus I've been unpacking and trying to get our house all nice and cozy.

... but now we're back! And I'm excited to fill you in on what's happening with our family.


Here's a pix of Gabbi on her baptism day!

Her cousin, Olivia (my sister, Leecie's daughter) was baptized at the same time. The two girls thought it was so neat to be able to have both baptisms on the same day.
