Fun on the Farm

We had such a fun morning today visiting Farm Country at Thanksgiving Point.  We met Grandma, Grandpa & Dylan there for a fun outing--and the boys even got their first pony ride!  Just wanted to share some cute pics :)  They sure had fun feeding all the goats and sheep, and doing the cute kid activities at the Barnyard Boo!




On the Wagon Ride around the farm. 



LOVED LOVED LOVED the pony ride! 



Cute Grandpa even let Jackson feed one of the HUGE goats that kept jumping up on the fence to see us.

"A BUNCH" of FUN!


Well...I'm not quite sure where to really begin.  It's been SO SO long since our last post, and SO much has happened in the meantime!  We had an incredible summer filled with a wonderful wedding of Jason & Hillary and...a few days after Matt finished Spring term...a super fun trip to California with Kirie, Brian & Dylan!  We went to Disneyland, California Adventures, Universal Studios, the beach, San Diego Zoo, and Sea World.     SERIOUSLY, could we have had more fun?!  I doubt it!  On top of that, we got some GREAT news about 4 hours after we landed in Cali about Matt's job--he was promoted to Manager!  The past months have truly been "A BUNCH" of fun!  I have to use "a bunch" because lately if Jackson really likes something, he tells me he wants "a bunch". 

After our Disneyland trip, we came home to celebrate Jackson turning 2 with a big Mickey Mouse party :)  Other than that we have kind of just been pluggin' along.  We just celebrated Matt's birthday and another wonderful wedding.  We are so excited for darling Allie & Chris, and it was a blast to see so much family at the wedding, too!  Yes, we are still trying to sell our house, Matt is still crazy with school and work, I am preparing my students for our Halloween recital in a week, and Jackson is very busy helping me with anything he possibly can.  He is definitely our wonderful little singer, singing all day long :)  Such a sweetheart!  What shocked me the most was when he could sing the whole alphabet AND count to 20 before he even turned 2! 

 We are most excited right now for the "bunch" of fun ahead of us as we get ready for a little baby to join us in March!  In just a few weeks we find out whether this little baby is a boy or a girl...and we can hardly wait!  Jackson changes his mind daily on whether he wants a brother or sister...but lately he has been singing (to the Primary Children's song "Fun to Do" tune) "playing with brother is fun to do".   :)  So...we shall see!
