Hill Air Force Base Museum

Here are a few pictures from our family trip up to the Air Force Museum that we took yesterday. The boys had a great time looking at all of the planes and learning about the history of the Air Force. Stacy and I especially enjoyed watching the boys as they played on the flight simulators. Nathan wants to be a fighter pilot now, but only if he can fly an A-26B invader (whatever that is). Landon really liked dressing up as an astronaut and pretending that he was blasting off into space. Taylor was not into the dress up clothing, but thought sitting inside of an airplane simulator was very cool. Stacy and I enjoyed it because it was free and got the kids out of the house for a few hours.

Ice Skating Fun

Nothing like beating the summertime heat by going ice skating. Stacy and I took the boys up to the Ogden Ice Sheet (site of the 2002 Winter Olympics Curling event) for a little family fun time. We had a lot of fun watching the boys skate around the rink. Taylor and Nate never fell down and proved to be very quick on skates (yes, they beat me in every race we had). Landon, while a little uncertain about skating at first, was able to skate around with Stacy by the end of the day. Lastly, Stacy proved to be a little ice princess as she "floated" around the ice doing various spins and twists. Overall, it was an enjoyable family outing.
