A Trip to the Zoo

10/10/09
We took a nice trip to the zoo. It was beautiful weather so it was great to be outside. The zoo is so alive when the weather is cool.



One of the highlights was watching the baby oragatan.











(Actually, if you ask the girls which was the hightlight of the trip they would probably say that is was learning that bats turn around and actually hang "right side up" with their thumbs so they can go potty.)

Primary Program

10/18/09
The girls each did an incredible job with their parts in the primary program. (I hope to still video each of them.) But it was really fun to have Ann, Sister Anthony Claire, Grandma and Grandpa Rebarchik all come to listen. In Anna's part she talked about going to visit Sister Anthony Claire so Anna wanted to invite her to come and listen. It was great they could all come.







It is so fun to hear Sister read stories to the girls. She doesn't talk much otherwise, but she seems to really enjoy reading stories when the girls ask her to.

Horse Back Riding

9/17/09
The girls were excited to go horse back riding at Sorensens. First they went to get the horse.



After a lesson on which brushes to use and how



the girls set to brushing everything from nose to tail.





They watched while Chrystal expertly clean out his feet and put on the saddle and bridle.



Then Jennie led him into the arena.



They were ready to go...if only they could climb up that high.



They each did a great job! And didn't seem to be all that scared.









And after it was all over, they wished they could try it some more.



Happy girls and a happy horse (getting horse treats!)



What a great time!

Justin's Birthday Party #2

9/19/09
We had a great time at Justin's birthday party at Stonefire Pizza.




We got to play a lot of games and get a lot of tickets for prizes.



















They even had rides and other fun things like bumper cars, frog hopper and a big ball play place with cannons and guns to shoot the balls.
