Sep 13 Womens National Soccer

Last weekend we got the opportunity to see a USA national team! We went with some friends to the game and sat three rows up. They were awesome seats just off to the side of the goalie. We were all impressed with the players abilities and skill level. The USA won 8-0 against Mexico. Fun times!

Comic Con

Emily and I went to Comic Con this weekend. Wyatt came with us too. It was pretty fun, but probably not something we’ll go to every time it is in town. Emily’s mom was able to get us in for free, so it was definitely worth the price. I think normally it costs $40 to get in.

Emily and I both agreed that the coolest things there were the cars. We saw the Delorian from Back to the Future and three different Batmobiles. I included pictures of them all. There were some other cars there too, but those ones were our favorites. We also saw a few famous people like Grant from Mythbusters, Napoleon Dynamite and Pedro, Lou Ferrigno (the original Hulk), Giancarlo Esposito, and a lot of other famous people, most of whom we didn’t really know.

There are lots of weirdos at Comic Con too. It was about as fun to crowd watch as anything else. Unfortunately, the modesty in many of the people who dressed up was not really there. There were a couple fun characters like the dad and daughter from Brave, Thor, and Iron Man. Interestingly enough Wyatt was quite scared of Thor, but found Iron Man very interesting. Who would have thunk?

 

Apples

Today Wyatt woke up from a nap and was in a terrible mood. The only thing he wanted was an apple that was sitting on the counter. Emily gave it to him just to see what he would do. Wyatt was able to bite the apple. He carried it around with him for a few hours and was the happiest boy ever. He even ended up eating over half the apple.

The yard work begins!

Last week we had two truck loads of soil brought in. We were going to need triple the amount of loads until a neighbor was kind enough to bring their extra soil to our yard. Wyatt has always loved to play outside. He was in heaven when he got a chance to play with the piles of soil. Last weekend our old bishop spread the soil and leveled out the yard for us. It looks great so far. All we need now is grass :) Travis also finished the wall for a raised garden in the front yard.

Snowbird Summer Day Pass

Travis and I had a fun time returning to Snowbird. We went to snowbird on our honeymoon and have not been back since. The day pass has changed a little over the past 5 Years.

This time we were able to ride the Mountain Coaster, the Alpine Slide, the Mountain Flyer and Tram. The pass also included a Ropes Course, Climbing Wall, and Bungee Trampoline.

Big shout out to Paul and Kerri for letting us use part of their week at the time share and for taking care of Wyatt while we had a mini vacation.

Corn on the Cob

1st Birthday Cake

We had 2 cakes; a treasure chest for the crew and a skull for Wyatt. Wyatt did not like his cake very much. He played with the frosting for awhile and dug his fingers in, but had no interest in eating anything.
