Water Slides and Farm Animals

This week I had Monday and Tuesday off. We thought it would be a good time to do some fun things around Utah County. On Monday we decided to go the Veterans Memorial Pool and Water slide in Provo. It was great! Matthew and Ryan both enjoyed the water. Matthew didn't like the little pool as much as the deep pool and the water slide. The first time I really had to talk Matthew into the water slide but after the first ride that is all he wanted to do. Amy took Matthew down the slide a few times but at the end she isn't tall enough to keep Matthew out of the water. After the second time of getting too much water in his face at the bottom of the slide, Matthew informed Amy that he wanted dad to go down the slide and not her anymore. Earlier Monday morning we told Matthew that we were going to go someplace fun. In response he said, "Are we going to Kmart?" Looks like we need to get out more if "fun" is going to Kmart. Sorry we don't have any pictures of us swimming but this is a "G" rated blog.

On Tuesday we went to Thanksgiving point with the boys to visit the "Farm Animals." Matthew was very excited. He loved the baby horse and all the other animals. He really got into the cow sounds and Amy and Matthew enjoyed a horse drawn wagon ride. After we had visited all the animals Matthew was able to go on a pony ride. As soon as he got on the pony he gave it a hug and told him that he loved him. Kids are really funny that way. All in all they were both very enjoyable outings.
