Summer toys

We've gotten some fun new toys to play with while we enjoy this beautiful weather.
First, a month ago I found this sweet ride on ksl for $40.  It is seriously like brand new and the boys, love it.  Jack's freaking crazy, I really should make him wear a helmet.
With our tax return this year we (I) decided we needed a swing set.  Erik didn't agree at first, but now that the kids have been playing on it everyday for the last month, he's admitted I was right.  We thought about going to California, but I decided we would get years worth of fun out of a swing set.

So we got the swing set (with monkey bars which was Kire's requirement), & this airplane teeter totter. Then we already had the tramp and a sandbox, so our house is the place to be.  I think I may start charging admission.

We got some new neighbors behind us and they have a little girl Jack's age & a son Kael's age.  They have a tramp too and Jayde & Jack both jump at the same time and talk to each other while in the air.  I just put up this ladder so they could have easier conversations.
The boys favorite place to go, besides our backyard, is the Castle Park in Fruit Heights.  It is the best park ever.
 We are trying to have family scriptures so I bought this family Book of Mormon to use.  We are trying to get better at it.

 Jack doesn't like clothes or shoes.  I really don't mind him peeing outside, it keeps him from peeing his pants, but for the neighbor kids sake I think he should put his pants back on.

Your backyard is the place to be! I am going to come up sometime this summer!

The castle park looks the same as one we have down here.. and I agree, the boys LOVE it!

Love the bum pic! Jack and Channing are one in the same!
