Play we Have

While Odette was really sick, I would always wonder how I would feel when we got the all clear.  Would I still freak out every time her temperature started to climb?  Would I even dare to take her shopping anywhere?  What if someone coughed in the same area as us, would I run away?  I know, pretty cheesy, but those are things I would do when she was sick.  However, I have found that I have relaxed and my mind is at peace and we have been able to play.

WE DID FIREWORKS
A couple of times.  The best ones were the flashy ones.  The kids could dance around and their shadows showed up on the house.  It was cool!  And of course watching the fireworks from our porch is always great...you can see the entire Utah county doing them!

PLAYED IN THE WATER WITH FRIENDS
We have done this at least three times, I just was too lazy to take pictures each time.  I think we need to invest in the big blow-up water toy.  The kids sure do love them!

WENT TO THE POOL
Odette didn't get in since she was still on her feeding tube and who knows what is in public pools water!  She didn't seem to mind as long as she had one of the water toys to play with.

HUNG OUT WITH SOME AWESOME COUSINS
Our cousins got a new playground for a surprise.  They were nice and invited us over to try it out with them.  It was way fun!

ODETTE SURE DOES LOVE OREO!
Oreo is our cousins dog.  He is just the right size for Odette.  She was so soft playing with him and feeding him grass.  She even gave him kisses.  I am sure they will be good play buddies, until Odette gets bigger!

WENT TO THE ZOO
Had to go before our pass expired that we got since we "lived" so close to it.  Now, I think it will be good enough to visit it just once a year as we have done in the past.  It was fun to see the baby elephant out playing this time!  All the kids loved the elephants.

MADE THE BIGGEST SNOW CONES EVER!
They sure were yummy and yes, the boys ate it all gone!

And there is still a long list of things we want to do.  Guess we better hurry since school isn't too far off!
