Take me out to the ball game

Thursday night my company sponsored a night out at the ballpark. We had a picnic dinner....

Watched the train go by

And then turned our attention as the "bees" took the field

Way fun was had by all :o)

Dentist

So I know that no one with kids from Park City reads this blog, but I was so impressed by our dentist visit this week that I'm going to blog about it anyway and file it under milestones since it was m's first visit :o) This place was awesome:

Short story: Taking kids to kid specific practices is TOTALLY worth it

Long story: We walked in and had our choices of watching beauty and the beast, the fish, playing with stuffed animals, legos, beads, or a million other toys. The exam rooms each had TVs right over the chair, and the dentist sang along to frozen while doing his exam. C loved it and was a great sport. M was a big fan of everything up to her turn. The dentist was awesome though and had a great plan for me holding her while she laid across our laps and he did what he needed to do in her mouth as quickly as possible.

Both girls got their teeth cleaned, polished, florided, and clean bills of health. Bonus news - apparently we're not concerned that m has an odd number of teeth on the bottom until she's 4 or so - woohoo.

Peter and the wolf

Yesterday we called Saba via facetime and interrupted him practicing bassoon.  He gave us a quick demo including a couple of bars from Peter and the Wolf. Turns out we had never watched that classic!

We decided to fix that quick while I finished getting dinner together. The girls loved it, especially the grandfather part.

Tour of Utah

This weekend was the annual Tour of Utah bike race. Turns out it goes right through the ranch where Norm and Jean live, so we were lucky enough to get invited to a viewing party! Not only did we get to see some awesome bike riding action...

the girls also got some great cousin time! Or maybe second cousin time? I can never remember how it works. Either way, they had fun with Jean's sister's daughter's boys :o)

Moon shaddow

This weekend triple m was up for an early early walk. On the way home we saw both the sun,
and the moon, and cool shadows. Max looks almost as leggy as Tellus!

Mirror Lake

Yesterday was a whirlwind of cleaning and running around and not so much fun. So today we decided to salvage the weekend by heading up to mirror lake.

We actually stopped about 3 miles shy at lost lake, and I'm so glad we did. It was a beautiful spot for lunch.

exploring the shoreline

discovering nature's tetter-totters

and being AMAZINGLY cute sisters

these two kill me :o)



The view on the way home wasn't bad either

Yay summery and yay Utah :o)
