Tuesday, December 16, 2008. Lincoln Safari 2008 - Part 3. I just received a phone call from the Lincoln Children's Zoo (A Sponsor of the Lincoln Safari). We were chosen as one of the winners for the Advanced Explorer Drawing. Our prize is a new patio set. Yeah! We will be able to pick it up some time after the first of the year. How exciting! We will post pictures when we get it. Mark, Alysson, Sherman and Eliza. Wednesday, December 3, 2008. Lincoln Safari 2008 - Part 2. At the end of November, the Child...

Friday, May 21, 2010. Mark, Alysson, Sherman and Eliza. Thursday, May 20, 2010. Summer Trip 2009 - Part 3. Broadbent Family Reunion - Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah. Snack time in the canyon. Part way through, we loaned the backpack carrier to Aunt Jennifer and Aubrey (who was getting a bit tired). I love this picture. Exhausted at the top! Thank goodness for the backpack! I think they are loved! On the third day we went on another hike with everybody. Sherman chose Madeline as his hiking partner.

Friday, April 16, 2010. Lincoln Children's Zoo - 2009. We spent a lot of time at the Lincoln Children's Zoo this last year (Thanks again to Dave and Helen Brooks)! Sherman and Eliza love the zoo and get excited every time we go. It's a great zoo because it is big enough, yet small enough. We usually spend about 2 hours when we go and have a great time. Below are some of my favorite pictures from our Zoo trips last year. The Eagle's Nest - Always a favorite. Waiting for a train ride. Last year we particip...

Wednesday, August 18, 2010. Sherman's First Day of School - August 18, 2010. Kindergarten here we come! Sherman started school today. It's hard to believe he is big enough. He was excited and anxious as I am sure most kids are. The Searle's met at our house this morning and we went together. Sherman is very excited that Dustin is back. They are not in the same class, but will see each other at lunch and recess. Looking good in the new school clothes that Sherman picked out on his own. Esplin Family - Emr...

Friday, July 9, 2010. Kansas City - December 2009. We did venture out the first evening we were there to visit a cousin, Moira. We had a nice dinner and visit with her. The kids enjoyed her marbles and two fluffy bear cubs that they could sit on. Another fun spot was Hallmark's Kaleidoscope. The kids enjoyed doing all kinds of art projects - painting, drawing, making puzzles, making Christmas ornaments and more. And it was all free. We went back a second time because the kids had so much fun. Sunday, Jul...

Sunday, July 4, 2010. Summer Trip 2009 - Part 5. Back to Utah and then Home again! At the Salem Days Fireworks show. The splash park was bit cold, so we spent most of our time in the pool or going down the water slide. At the Capitol Building. On the train at the Zoo. Due to a delayed flight, we were able to take Amy to the Winter Quarters Visitor Center also. The kids enjoyed playing with the little wagons and blocks as usual, while Aunt Amy went through the center. Mark, Alysson, Sherman and Eliza.

Sunday, July 4, 2010. Bernards' Family Reunion - November 2009. Our next trip to Utah was in November for the Bernards' Family Reunion. We all had a great time. The first unofficial day of the reunion was spent making applesauce. All the kids enjoyed helping. I can't remember how many total quarts we made, but it was a lot. Below are a few pictures highlighting some of the reunion. Helping Grandpa pick out a Christmas Tree. Kate found the only mud hole on the lot. She was not too happy! Hastie Family - T...
