The rest of the last week of July

Here are some highlights from the rest of the week after we got back from Bear Lake.

Steve took the boys to the Aquarium this week.  They enjoyed playing in the playground.  Hudson tried the toddler section for a little while, then he wanted to join his older brothers in the big kid area.  Surprisingly he was able to do it w/ little help from his brothers.  He is determined to keep up w/ them.

Cute boys having so much fun running around.

Hudson wearing his brother's helmet pad while they do martial arts.  Nyles getting another stripe on his belt (Carter got his too).  Nyles and Carter are both working hard and learning a lot in martial arts.

Cute boys playing and coloring in a box we got in the mail w/ diapers. 

Carter picked a flower and wanted to give to Grandma, so Steve took a picture.

Nyles and Carter both trying to help Hudson up the slide.  Hudson got wet so we took off his clothes to dry.  Then he grabbed the water gun and tried to use it.  Such a silly kid.

Carter and Nyles trying to help Hudson up the slide, but then he wanted to go back down.

Friday after work we went over to the Aquarium again.  We finished their scavenger hunt finding the hidden sharks around the place, inside and outside, for Shark Week.  We then let the kids play at the playground again.

Checking out the penguins, running around the playground.

Paccu fish, and more fun at the playground.  Hudson keeping up w/ him.

My cute boys.  Cool turtle and looking at the sharks.

After dinner and getting Hudson to bed, we played a game of Jenga.

While getting some groceries we saw another kayak on sale.  Nyles wanted to get it for his birthday, so we did.  It's an adult size, so he shouldn't outgrow it anytime soon.  He's on a little excited!

Nyles and Carter went to 2 birthday parties on Saturday.  One at the church for Clay Monson (neighbor).  They had a Nerf gun fight.  They came home for lunch, then went to the 2nd party for a girl that Nyles does martial arts with.  Her younger brother is Carter's age, so they both went and played.  They had a bouncy water slide, painted rocks and had pizza.  They had a great time at both parties.

Nyles w/ his new kayak.  Hudson was taking a bath and saw his tug boat, jumped on it, and said "Ride, boat."  So cute.   At the Nerf gun fight birthday party.

Great quotes.
