Thanksgiving point

Last Tuesday was a fun day! Thanksgiving Point has $2 Tuesday for some of their attractions during the month of August so we decided to go to the "Farm Country" and the dinosaur museum (apparently the world's largest.) The whole place was packed with kids, strollers, frazzled parents, dinosaur remains, and other petrified items. Needless to say we didn't spend as much time at the museum as we'd have liked...maybe we'll go back on a quieter day sometime. Hallie loved the farm and seemed very pleased when she got to pet and then ride a real horse!

Jail time with Dad, down by the farm...probably caught creating a stir over at "Miss Kitty's Dance Hall!"

There were 5 other small ponies going around the pen and Hallie, the smallest child there, rode the biggest horse. She enjoyed it all the same.

Hallie was very sad when the horse ride ended or maybe it was the fact that I let go of her to try and get a good picture of her alone on the horse...probably the latter. There were some really cool displays at the museum, but Hallie really didn't care to be still long enough to be in a good picture with any of them, these are the best shots we got. She wasn't even concerned by the fact that a giant great white shark was about to eat her and her dad!

Glam Girl

Hallie LOVES to dress up, play with make-up, and do her hair. She gets into my make-up on a regular basis and is always finding headbands and hats to put on. Any little bottle that she finds becomes pretend hair mousse, or nail polish, or lotion; if I'm using any of the above for real, Hallie is right there wanting to use some of her own.

Her favorite hats seem to be her bathing suit. I like the blue one best!

She also has a big shoe fetish and loves putting on, and walking in, EVERY pair of shoes she comes across. She figured out how to put her boots on by herself and would not take them off; she also gets very stubborn about wanting to wear her jackets even when it's 30 degrees outside!

Hallie and I went to Provo Canyon Park with Caitlin and Grant for FHE one night in July. We were sad that there was no water to play in, as there was in the spring, but enjoyed the mountain grandeur.
