Wheeler Farm

As a kid I was always fascinated with Wheeler Farm. It's right by my Grandma's house. We didn't go very often, I think my mom thought it was boring. When we went to Utah, I was trying to find cheap things to do. It doesn't get much cheaper than Wheeler Farm. We took the kids on the wagon ride, fed the ducks, milked a cow. I would have liked to wander around more and show them the animals and stuff but it's a lot more crowded than I remember. We still had fun though I think. I know the girls enjoyed feeding the ducks and JD got a kick out of milking the cow.

Pics from Utah/Heritage Park

These are of the kids at Heritage Park. There's one of the family in the previous post.

Utah Trip

So the question is, after having a really nice vacation and taking over 300 pictures, how do you decide which ones to post to a blog? The answer is: I have no idea. I finally got around to getting the pictures off of mine and Jeremy's cameras. There were a lot of really good ones. We had a nice time. We went to Wheeler Farm, Heritage Park, the George C Eccles Dinosaur Park in Ogden, saw my new nephews who are way too cute and had a lot of fun in general. This picture here was taken at Heritage Park. I wanted a nice picture of the family. Let me tell you, it was not easy. While there, the girls participated in a three legged race, we went on a covered wagon ride, and they had fun seeing the Pioneer Village. We also visited This is the Place Monument, which Jeremy had never seen before. Unfortunately we picked a hot week to go there so we didn't spend as much time there as we could have. Maybe next time. Over the next little while I'll include more pictures from the things we did.

Update

My sister called this morning to tell me that amazingly enough, my cousin's baby didn't die, he made it through the night. My mother was getting information second-hand and due to what was going on medically they (my grandmother, aunts and parents) assumed he had died. So first of all I'm happy beyond what I can describe and grateful for the medical advances that we have available to us today. The baby's name is Michael Jeffrey. He's got a long road ahead of him but he's a fighter. He's got a problem with his heart and with one of his lungs that they are trying to treat. The doctors say they should know more as far as what kind of chances he has and what kind of quality of life he will have in a couple of weeks. My cousin was given a room in the children's hospital so she can be near him. I thank Heavenly Father for this miracle and ask everyone to keep Michael in their prayers.
