The Dinosaur Park in Ogden

We went on an adventure to the Dinosaur Park in Ogden. We talked a lot before about how the dinosaurs died and how the things we were going to see were not alive. We learned how to tell if the dinosaur ate meat or plants by the kind of teeth it has. We looked at many different dinosaurs and the girls really enjoyed pretending to be scared at some of them as we walked around the grounds of the park. They did a great job figuring out what they ate and why they had horns or big plates or claws. Now we know lots about dinosaurs and we will probably be back in the future to enjoy the park.

We took some really fun pictures at their playground and posing stands. After we enjoyed the park we went to Kelli’s favorite restaurant in Perry called Maddox. We ate Bison Chicken Fried Steak and it was fantastic, so were the rolls, raspberry butter, sea food cotail and sasparilla (Kade had Cream Soda). Everything there is homemade, even the drinks, and the Bison is raised on their ranch. We give it a five star rating!

























Great Grandma Millie Foster Cheesman

Great Grandma Millie Foster Cheesman is Kade’s Grandma. We went to visit in Orem and introduce her to baby Kolden. It was nice to get some pictures with her. We appreciate her hospitality for allowing us to stay at her home. She is such a classy lady with lots of neat things she has collected from many travels around the world. She is a gracious hostess and puts on a dinner for any family that can attend on the first Sunday of each month. She is in her early 80’s and always likes to know what is going on with the family. She has 6 children and currently 27 great grandchildren with 2 more on the way.




Kari, Kya and Kiera sang many songs from the Children's Hymn Book for Great Grandma Millie while she fed Kolden.

New Baby Cousin Livy!

This is a great story! We were up camping on Beaver Mountain for the 24th of July and Aunt Hillary (36 weeks pregnant) went on a rhino ride with Uncle Kyler. Early the next morning around 4:30am Hillary’s water broke! They rushed her down the mountain and to Beaver Hospital. From there they took her by ambulance to Utah Valley Hospital and got her on some petosin to speed up the labor and an epidural. Around 3:30ish pm little Livy Pearl Cheesman was born! She weighed 5 lbs 12oz and was 18.5 in. She was in NICU for a few hours and then she was doing great. Isn’t she beautiful! Livy is one week old in this picture.
