Saint George Marathon

On October 2nd Craig and David did the Saint George Marathon. Both coming in around 3 hours and 47 minutes.

Teresa, the boys and I went to the finish line to cheer them on.

Boys turn THREE

The boys turned 3 in October. We really celebrated by going to LegoLand, but did a cake on their birthday. Papa Craig and Grandma Teresa were in town for the Saint George Marathon, so we did singing and cake with them.

It was super fun to see the boys totally have free rein over the cake. It was Very entertaining.

At the Beach

After LegoLand, we headed North to see David's family. We stayed a few days, and couldn't help but go to the beach. We all had fun on the boogie boards. Bryan had fun digging holes for the kids, as usual. Teresa fell in the water. Connor was obsessed with the kite. They both tried to fly it, but there wasn't quite enough wind.

The boys had a LOT of fun hanging out with Grandma Teresa, Papa Craig and Uncle B.

Safari Jeep Ride

This was probably the ONLY ride where we actually had to wait in a line, but the boys liked it from the day before, so we suffered through the 15 minute wait. The Jeeps were on a track, and the kids got to pretend like they were driving. As you went around, you got to see a bunch of Safari animals out of Legos.

Fire Truck Relay

This was a competition where you pump the firetruck from one end of the course to the other...all of 20 yards probably. You get out and one person pumps the water as the other aims in this window to "put the fire out". I don't know that the boys got the full idea, but we had fun none the less.

Airplane Ride

This was a ride that we did OVER and OVER without even getting off. It was awesome. But basically you just sit in the plane and it goes in circles.

The Aquarium

We met up with my friend Cami and her son Ian and walked around the Fish Aquarium. It was fun to see all the fish. You can see Connor got a really close look from inside a bubble.

These pictures to not represent EVERYTHING that we did, just what we happened to capture on film. We also did the Water Park, but didn't get any pictures of that. Needless to say, we had such a blast there, and the boys absolutely loved it. They were talking about going back, but we had to explain to them that we couldn't go back for a while. It broke their hearts!

LegoLand-part 2

Mystic Tower

Basically you are cranked up and then dropped and bounced a few times.






Boat Ride

This was on of many boat rides that we went on. The first time we went, Connor was crying the whole time. I was getting tired of him "chickening" out right before we got on a ride, so I forced him to ride....But after a while he liked it. They boys could actually steer the boats, with the help of us.





Helicopter

I think this was one of Connor's favorite rides. A pretty simple ride, you just sin in the helicopter and you can go up and turn in circles.
