Polar Bear at Hogle Zoo

Of course we had to go see the new polar bear at the zoo, it's my favorite animal.
There is only one but he put on a good show for us.
Moving around on land and swimming and splashing in the water.


What a beautiful animal!

Getting a drink.


Spencer running around.

Mom and Austin resting in the shade.

Probably the only time Spencer was still at the zoo. He is a very active boy!

4th of July with The Jameson's

Grandma and Grandpa always have their swimming pool ready.
Uncle Brett loves to swim with the boys.

Daddy soaking his feet to cool down.

Grandpa even got in for a minute.


Playing with the toys in the pool.

What a good boy!

There is always a water fight. Everyone against Sydni, she usually starts it!

Austin fits perfectly in the little pool.
                    

Just playing

This big ball has a sprinkler effect, as you kick it around you get wet.
Spencer did not like it but Austin would chase it around with Syd.



It's tradition to make ice cream. Spencer was trying to help Uncle Brett churn it up.


Waiting for the fireworks to start.

Uncle Brett and Syd are in charge of lighting all the fireworks.

Austin throwing the "Poppers"

Random Spring Pictures

Austin playing in the castle sandbox he got for his birthday.

Spencer "helping" Dad with this corner garden bed
that eventually became our strawberry patch.

Poor Spencie!  He got a really bad cold that turned into a mild case of RSV and he had to do breathing treatments every four hours. He did really well with it. He would sit and watch a show and leave it on for the full 20-25 minutes that it would take. He called it his special medicine.

Finding Easter eggs at Grandma and Pa's
(The only pictures of Easter although we did egg hunts and our house and Grandma Jameson's)





St. George this Spring

Over Spring Break we went camping in St. George, which was a bust, but while we were there we went to the Wildlife Museum, the St. George Temple grounds, and climbed some red rock.
Daddy and the boys. "Look Out! Don't let the bears get you!"

Austin in front of his favorite purple flowers.


The flowers were beautiful.

The boys smelling the flowers (and Spencer accidentally picking one, OOPS!)

Austin climbing on the rocks with Jacey

Jacey climbed up into the little hole.

The boys liked finding "caves" and playing in the sand.

Austin and Daddy climbed to the top of the rock.

To get to the very top they had to cross a bridge.
 Austin was a little scared and had to hold on with every step.

Aquarium and Barnyard

It's been awhile (again) We finally uploaded the 280 pictures from our camera. We will highlight what we have been up to.
Austin found Nemo and Dory at the Aquarium

Spencer really liked looking at the penguins

They both liked sitting in the boat by the river otter display.



The Farm at Thanksgiving Point.

Spencer riding a horse for the first time. He loved it!
