Saturday Fun

The kids were excited to pull the remote control airplane out of the garage Saturday. We decided to give flying one last try...and we were successful!  We didn't even need to use the duct tape after the first two flights.  :)

Dakota purchased her own hula hoop Saturday and showed us her amazing hula hoop skills. Despite her valiant coaching, the family has yet to come close to learning that same skill.

Soccer Saturdays

I am loving our Saturday mornings at the soccer fields.  Taylor and Dakota love playing, and Bryce is enjoying coaching Taylor's team.  Dakota scored her first goal Saturday!

Family Retreat

We decided to spend our "There's No Place Like Home" family retreat in Omaha. We enjoyed reading The Wizard of Oz the week prior and watching the DVD on our drive to NE. Although Bryce and I were both sick for the trip, we made some great memories and enjoyed our discussions regarding heart, courage, and mind.

We also enjoyed our visit to the temple and while Bryce and I switched off with the kids we visited the Mormon Trail Center.  

 We walked from Nebraska to Iowa and back again on the longest pedestrian bridge connecting two states.

Another favorite was a trip to the Omaha zoo.  The boys especially loved the aquarium. 

Taylor and Dakota especially enjoyed  the skyfari ride and Camryn the carousel.
