Play, Play & More Play!

Holy cow have we been playin it up this past week! For starters we took Lane to a fun play place called Imagination Ave that my mom read about in the newspaper. They have little houses with different themes and all the toys that go with it so they can make believe. It was way cute! It is out in Phoenix but it is worth the drive plus Last Chance is on the way so you can make a day of it :)






Lane had his first day of school on Monday. I guess he is so smart they bumped him up all the way to college! Marcie is taking a child development class at MCC and they needed some kids to observe while they play, so Lane was the lucky winner. I was kind of worried that he would be shy in front of everyone, but I was wrong. I think the class got a kick out of watching him with all his "boy" play.

Lanes new buddy

Wednesday was zoo day! We had fun with my friend Jenni and her
kids Ashlyn, Hallie and Tate.

this lion was cracking me up. Poor thing must have been all tuckered out

Today we went to Schnepf Farms with Stephanie and cousins Ashlyn and Randon. They had fun on the hayride and petting the deer, watching the pig races and playing in the pumpkin patch.
