The last part of June 2014


Lyla read a book from the library about Saturday being 'DAD-erday' so that's what she thinks Saturday is called. We always try to do something fun on our Dad days.

We drove to the Zoo in Pocatello this Saturday and Lyla loved it.
We lucked out and went on the day they were celebrating the 2 black bears birthdays and the 1 grizzly bears birthday. 

Watching the black bears eat their birthday cakes.


Lyla liked this guy.


Waiting for the bird show.  They showed us an owl and a hawk.
We learned that all of the animals at this Zoo are rescues and are native to this area.

This bear is carved from a huge piece of wood. 


We made birthday hats to wear for the bears' party and played some games.


Travis liked the goats.


Lyla loves animals and was so excited that she was able to get this close to the goats.


Happy Fathers Day!
My kids are so blessed to have such a fun, hardworking, amazing Dad!


New tent!

On a different 'Dad-erday' Scott surprised us and took us mini golfing.


Lyla loved it and thought it was fun because everything was glowing in the dark.


All smiles even though he didn't get to play.


It was so fun watching her push the ball into the hole.
She would get so excited when she made it in.
It was a really fun surprise.
Dad-erday is the best!

Playing in the pool! 


He loves the water and will splash like crazy!


Lyla's caterpillar Tiggy turned into a butterfly.
She was so excited. We found him in our garden on a lettuce leaf so we let him go out there.
We have seen him a couple of times sense.


Our Stake did a dance festival and Lyla preformed with the jr primary.
They danced to 'Give said the little stream." She was the grass.
At the dress rehearsal 2 days before she did terrible. She stood there with her had on her ears (she really doesn't like loud noises).
So we practiced and bribed her with a new Doc McStuffins toy and she did much better for the performance.

8 Months!
Can you believe this kid is 8 months old?
Time is flying by!


I told him we were going to cut his hair...not too excited.
His hair stands straight up and out.
Which is cute, but it was starting to get crazy.
I took almost 2 inches off the top and an inch off the sides.


Look at how handsome my dude looks.
It makes him look older, but needed to be done. :-)


I can't beielve June is over.
The summer has been great so far....
We are looking forward to seeing some family (both sides),
celebrating Great Papa Zobell's 90th Birthday, 
Our 7th Anniversary, 
Great Grandma Lindstorm's 80th Birthday and
 Lyla's 4th Birthday!
 Busy month with lots of celebrations.
