(15th) Our VW Passat's AC compressor went out and we had to get it replaced with a bunch of other stuff. It took a couple days so we took a few days off work and went up to Boise and stayed for a few nights. To pass the time without our car, we went shopping at the mall. Ben and Peyton went in to Build-A-Bear while Bentley and I watching the goings on from the bench out front.
Peyton named her puppy Princess. She even got to get an outfit and shoes with the deal they were having.
(16th) To send the half day it took for our car to get finished, we took the kids to the zoo. Peyton thought it was very fun to see all the animals in their cages.....which is exactally where she prefers them!
They had a fun butterfly exhibit that people could walk through. They would check you before they let you leave so that you didn't take any with you. Ben was the only one of our group that "caught" one.
By the time we were ready to leave the zoo, the kids were tired and ready to leave the zoo too. But we enjoyed walking around and just enjoying some time off together.
(18th) My dear Peyton girl is still as "helpful" as she's ever been. This morning, she thought she'd help me put her bowl in the sink when she was done with her cereal. Only problem.....the milk was still in the bowl and the counter was taller then she was.
The milk covered the floor and Peyton's face, which she didn't much like!
(19th) For my birthday, we got to go to the Cassia County Fair, eat good food, good maple bars, and watch the rodeo. Hailie and Derek came up for the weekend as well so we got to spend some time with them too. It was very hot at the top of the grandstands so Bentley was stripped down to just a diaper and Peyton was put in some capri's. The rest of us just had to stick it out.
(20th) Kyle had come home for the weekend too. He had a date that wanted to shoot guns and we were more the willing to join them when they invited us to. Chris liked to pull the mechine to throw the clay pigeons. Ben liked to shoot so they made a good team.
Peyton didn't much care for the boom, but she liked being by her Uncle Kyle so she dealt with it.
Bentley and I sat on the blanket and covered out ears so that we could stand to stay out and watch.
Derek came out and shot for a while too. I even got a chance to shoot. I missed the first one and hit the second one. I decided to stop while my hit rate was 50%.
(21st) Ann was so nice to make me peach cobbler for my birthday "cake". And she even put candles with a "2" "6" on it for me:) It was very good, expecially the crust, which is always the best part.
Bentley got to sit with Grannie Annie and eat some cobbler, but his favorite part was the whipped cream! Boy, look at him lick those lips :D
