Marcos & Mandee's Pieces: Last Days of Summer Fun

Here are a few highlights from our last few weeks of summer!

Swimming at Aunt Attica's and Uncle Adam's pool!

We used some passes we had to go to Hollywood Connection. The kids had a blast!

Did you see how nice and clear and cute the pictures of the girls are? I couldn't get Zaquel to hold still to save his life! He just would not look my way either! So alas, he gets pictures like this of him!

The Dragon Coaster was their favorite ride!

Briel even ventured a ride! Only one though...we couldn't get her to go on it again.

Taking off the socks so he can "stick" to the slide better...you know like how Spiderman sticks to the walls!

See! Just like Spiderman! ;)

Let's just say that our miniature golfing experience was very, VERY painful! The kids had a hard time waiting their turn and then Zaquel kept hitting the ball like it was a baseball and it went everywhere! The water, the rocks, other people's legs, other holes...yes, we will not be doing that again anytime soon...We didn't realize there were 18 holes! Way too many for us! We should have stopped at 10 but Isabel wanted to finish! And we did!

FYI: DO NOT try and tell or show Briel how to hold the golf club...it will result in some vicious and loud screaming that might make you go deaf!

So, there was "The Magic of Timothy" going on when we were there. He started out with some fire tricks and other simple tricks that amazed the kids. It was fun. For his last trick he picked a volunteer who happened to be our little Isabel! He made her levitate. She was so thrilled to be picked and then when she found out what he did! Oh, the harmonious cries of joy sounded throughout the room!

At the aquarium with Grandma and Grandpa...

They had this really cool infrared camera by the reptile section which my children loved!

Family Reunion at Copperton Park!

The pinata is a big hit with the kids. My Aunt had to stop Zaquel before he put another hole in it so no one else would get a turn!

Had lots of homemade ice cream!

Gave service at the Crop farm for the LDS Church Welfare Program.

I wish he would have done this in our garden! ;)

Grandpa taught Marcos how to mix cement the "American" way while they fixed our fence which blew down during a terrible wind storm in June.
