The funny things our kids say!

So we were driving to Zane's Kindergarten appt. yesterday and he tells me that his throat is giggly. I asked him why and he said it was because it was so excited to meet his new teacher. So cute and funny!! Just had to share :)

The first day of school!

Today is the first day of school. The kids are so excited to get back and see some of their friends again. Ashlyn is in 4th grade and Alec is in 2nd grade, although by the looks of it you would think it was the other way around. Alec is now taller than Ashlyn! Zane is in Kindergarten this year, but he doesn't start until next week because of kindergarten testing. We get to go meet his teacher today though and he is very excited.

One last hooraa!!

On Wednesday we finally went to our splash pad by our house. First time this summer, I think it was about time. We went with Stephanie and kids (caden, carlie, josh, and amanda). We had a great time. Even Jace got into the water (at least a little)!! Here are the pics and video...

Carlie and Ashlyn playing rock, paper, scissors!

Ashlyn and Jace surveying the situation!

Thats what happens when you try and sit on the water :)

Zane Chillin'!

This is how Jace spent most of the day!

Tara's new trick :)

Tara loves to play peak-a-boo!! It is her new talent in a long line of new discoveries that she is learning to do. She is so much fun these days, but what 10 month old isn't!!

Our trip to the aquarium!

So on Tuesday we went to the Living Planet Aquarium in Sandy. We had so much fun, especially Jace. He loved seeing the fish swimming around. He even got to see Nemo and Dori from Finding Nemo. Here are some pics form our trip...

Here we are taking a tour of the great salt lake!

Here's Ashlyn Practicing for her days on a yacht when she's a teenager (NOT!)

Strike a Pose!

Alec touching the Sting Rays!

Zane and the Sharks!

Tara liked the Fishys too!!

All in all we had a great time and we cannot wait to go again next summer!!

summers almost over :(

So it's the last week of summer. Hopefully we can get a few fun things in before the kids have to go back. Such is life in year round school. We are going to go to the splash pad tomorrow so I will post some pics for everyone to see.

Here We Go!!!

So here goes I guess the clarks will jump on the blogging bandwagon and run with it. I hope you all enjoy.
