FALL BREAK 2014

Ashlyn loves Hailey Rue Van de Graaf! They have a lot of fun together (and their fair share of arguing). I got this sneaky video of them playing together.


Brinley knows how to really use a sink!


Brinley has also come to enjoy playing with dolls.


We went to our favorite fast food restaurant: Chick-Fil-A! Brinley was so intrigued with the cow (the one that tries to persuade you to eat mor chikin!). Wherever she was at, she was looking around for the cow! She loved watching, but didn't want to get too close.


It wouldn't be a real break without visiting the Fontanelle Forest! (after the Children's Museum of course- that's where the face painting came from)


I love me some Jenny!


Ashlyn started the balance beam this week at gymnastics and it is really paying off!



Brinley and Ashlyn looking at the owl.


Here's a pic from the children's museum. Ashlyn was content for about 30 minutes serving me things from the kitchen.


Of course we also went to Vala's again. It was a beautiful day. We went with the Van de Graaf's and had such a great time! Brinley just loves the goats! I found little pellets of food on the ground and had her feed them to the goats (no Mom, they weren't pellets of poop like I tried to feed the deer at the zoo when I was younger).

Kelly and Christine visited us! They flew in on Friday evening! We were sad Grandma and Grandpa Williams couldn't make it but glad that Kelly and Chris still came. Ashlyn and Brinley enjoyed both of them being with us! On Saturday after they did a session at the Winterquarters temple, we met at the visitors center and had a picnic lunch. After a tour of the visitor's center we went to the Union Pacific Museum and the Kanesville Tabernacle. They treated us to dinner at Chili's! We always love eating out! (especially Jenny!) 


"Welcome to Omaha" overlook.


These trains are big!



A little glimpse from my clinic experience. This guy came to our volunteer clinic and I fixed him up with some new fillings. He wasn't super appreciative but I thought they looked great!

Ashlyn went to a birthday party of a friend Nora. It was a Frozen birthday party and Ashlyn loved it! She was given a frozen cup with characters and things inside. "Oh My Gooooooosh!" She had the greatest reaction. Jenny and I got a good kick out of it.
