The 4th, Jared's birthday and the Zoo.

We've had a busy weekend. On the 3rd we went to Granny and Gramps and had a weinie roast. We cooked hot dogs over the fire and ate lots! The kids did smoke bombs and when it got dark enough we did fireworks. Cole and Herbie came home for the week which worked out great. Dad had to have hip relpacement surgery on the 29th and they were there to help my mom.












On the 4th we took the kids to the North Ogden Cherry Day's parade. They liked it mostly because they got lots of candy. That night we went with Lill and Kris to Barker Park and watched the fireworks. We also ended up loosing Jared. He took off and it was dark. It took us a good half hour to find him. Next year we are buying those glow sticks and making a pattern on him so if he does run off we can find him.













On Sunday we celebrated Jared's 5th birthday. He was really excited to open his presents. We got him a garbage truck and Deisel 10. He's from the Thomas and friends collection. He's the naughty and mean train and he's Jared's favorite. Go figure.










On Monday we went to Hogle Zoo in Salt Lake. It was really fun but extremely hot.

It figures he would love diesel 10. My kids are no different. Next year though we are making a pattern on him and tying him up to a chair with a 100 foot lee-way!!! It was fun all being together.
