We stopped at Hogle Zoo in Salt Lake on our way to St. George. Kyle calls it "the BIG Zoo." His favorite part was the life-sized elephant statue that would play music & sneeze water out of it's trunk.
Kyle quickly figured out that to get in with Grandpa Warner, he'd have to get in good with Chip. To start with all the boys were petrified of the dog but by the time we left Kyle was calling Chip his new best friend.
Our lives were truly enriched as we spent time with Keith's grandparents. This was their first chance to meet Joshua & Samuel & Kyle hasn't seen them since he was 6 wks old.
Grandpa Warner took us to the Wildlife Museum in St. George. The boys all got binoculars like they were going on a safari. Kyle still talks about the pretend thunderstorm & all the animals we saw there.
Josh & Sam digging in the sand with Aunt "Silly."
My boys building a sand castle "like Curious George."
Keith can't stick to the easy stuff. He has to sculpt Superheroes in the sand. Here he's posing with his sculpture of Batman.
Relaxing at the beach.
Joshua's sharing a drink with Samuel at the beach.
Aunt Rachelle proved to be a great help especially at the pool. Joshua & Samuel really enjoyed the shallow pool. Finally, they could splash without getting in trouble like when they splash in the tub.
Relaxing with Mom in our condo.
Kyle had a blast at the pool. He showed no fear as he jumped into the deep area. He had complete confidence that Dad would be there to catch him.
Samuel pauses at pool side for a photo.
Kyle tried his hand a tennis. He actually hit the ball the first time he swung.
We enjoyed a week at Bear Lake. We spent the mornings at the pool & the afternoons at the beach. It was very relaxing.

LDS Temple Open House
We stopped of at the temple open house on our way to Logan & Bear Lake. Kyle was especially intrigued by the angel Moroni statue on top. He's been learning about temples in Primary & listened carefully to the presentation when they explained that a temple is the House of the Lord. He asked, "Is He here?" He wanted to be sure that we know that Heavenly Father, Jesus, & the Holy Ghost live there. It was neat to share this experience as a family.
