Then it was the hot air balloon festival. They blow them up and take off from the park which is right next door to our house. As soon as i heard them going i went in and woke Broadie. I think he liked them, he kept yellin "in" to everyone who floated by. Right as i was clicking the button to take the pict it blew its fire and scared him. I thought his face was pretty priceless.
At the beginning of August we took a family trip to Utah... first up on our family fun was changing a flat tire in Green River. It had a huge hole in it, so crazy!
Our first scheduled stop was in Manti. On our anniversary (Aug 11th) we were sealed together as a family. It was so special to have Broadie brought in in his little white clothes.

After the temple my parents hosted a barbque for all of our friends and family to share our special day with us. It was lots of yummy food and good company. Baby Jaida

Taming the lions.
Merry go round. Broad"s favorite part of the whole zoo.
Later that afternoon we went to Temple Square.
The next day we tackled the Discovery Gateway. Broadie loved this place! Zac and i thought it was too busy and there were too many kids ha ha (we must be getting old)
Later that afternoon we went to a splash pad at Liberty Park. Broad wasnt too sure at first but he warmed up pretty quick.
Next up was the Aquarium. None of us had ever been to an aquarium before so we all thought it was pretty neat. Zac and Broadie got to pet a sting ray... i was too grossed out.
Then we headed back down to Grandma and Papa's for the night. Broadie loved helping with Jaida. It was really fun to watch.
That night was Derby night at the fair. Broad was crazy about it. He was in awe the whole time with all the cars crashing and then when they would bring in the back hoes to pull them out he would scream "back hoe!"
Last but not least, Broadie got a new scooter. He LOVES it. We have to go to the church parking lot just about everyday to ride it (our kitchen just isnt big enough)
