A Day At Thanksgiving Point

My Sisters and I spent the day at Thanksgiving Point with our kids, taking pictures and seeing the farm animals. It was a very good relaxing day. My kids just love Kelsey and baby Lynlee, they just can't get enough of either one.

Kelsey was not really into taking pictures at first.

Olivia, Kelsey and Bradley taking a walk.

The Cousins

The girls (poor Bradley out numbered by girls)

Taking a break while baby Lynlee eats

The kids and Ivy were so in love with the baby goats

This baby goat couldn't have been more than one day old.

Toni and Lynlee looking at the animals....well sort of.

I've only seen a peacock with it's tail fully extended a few times. This day we saw this white one and a blue on fully extended.....Must be Spring!

Horse Ride! Baby Lynlee was too small and Heather was to old.

Wagon Ride

Then we had lunch! What a wonderful day. We are going to have to do this more!!!

Olivia's New Hair Cut

Before

We decided to try a shorter style for Olivia this summer. She hates her hair being brushed and pulled up into braids and pigtails all the time. I didn't like leaving it down where by the end of the day she has a rats nest tangled in it.

The Mets 2012

This year Bradley has hit the Minor League, playing for the Mets. Right now his team is in second place. Bradley is a very animated player and talks a lot of smack, (too much for a 9 year old if you ask me).

He is so stoked!

Bradley is usally not one to swing when he gets up to bat. All last year he either walked or struck out. Tghis year we bribed him. $1 a swing whether he hit the ball or not. His very first swing he hit the ball (straight to short stop). He was shocked and amazed (he turned to see if Honey, Grandma and I saw this and then he ran). Unfortunaetly short stop caught the ball and he was out. But that didn't stop the celebration.

Bradley's first hit in a game.

Excitement!!

Bradley hit the ball one more time and got an RBI. He swong a total of 6 times... $6 was his. Now he is not getting paid to swing, (we will go broke). He does however have the confidence and is at least trying now.
