We had a camp sight that my dad had build a little house on so that we would have a kitchen and bathrooms with flushing toilets and showers so it was camping in luxury (even though Coleton prefered to "pee on the trees")!Tuesday, July 5, 2011
Cheney Family Campout!!
The last few days of out mini vacation, we decided to spend camping in Idaho with the Cheney family! My sisters Cristeen and Caralee along with my brothers Brent and Bradley brought there families and we camped out together!! It was warm but really fun. Since Coleton loves camping he was in heaven since he got the best of both worlds cousins to play with and camping!!

Hoggle Zoo!!
Day 2 of our mini vacation, we decided to take the boys to the zoo since neither of them had been. We headed to Hogle Zoo with my sister-in-law Marie and her three little girls!
We were able to see lots of monkeys,
Which Coleton was really excited about since he had never seen a real monkey..
Hayden was super excited to see everything, he was amazed everytime he saw anything move!
It was pretty warm the day we went so after about thirty minutes Coleton was not in the best of moods.. i had just seen him put his arms up to the sign but when i tried to do it with him he kind of lost it :)
When we went they had a special dinosaur exibit going on that had dinosaurs placed throughout the zoo that moved and growled, some were life size and some were made smaller but i thought they were pretty neat, Coleton hated it!
We saw the elephants (there was a cute little baby elephant) which scared Coleton
We saw giraffes
which were my favorite...we also saw lions, gorillas, and lots of repitles and bugs.
I had been telling Coleton for days that we would be going to the zoo and i would ask him which animals we would see at the zoo and he would answer "zebras, penguins, polar bears, camels...." and we were disappointed to find that when we got there they didnt have any of those animals so he wasnt the happiest of campers but what do you expect, We were grateful that we had family there to help us...

Childrens Discovery Museum!!
We had a free weekend, which is weird since we seem to not have many of them this summer, so we decided to head to Salt Lake for a mini Comstock family reunion (with just our little family). We stayed at my parents house and did some fun activities with the boys. The first day there we decided to head to the Childrens Discovery Center. We had never been but we heard the boys would love it and they did! It was all hands on play for them and here is some of the things they did....
They had a large water station that had waterfalls and water wheels that both boys loved, what was better is they even had aprons they could wear so they wouldnt get wet which was wonderful!
They had an area that resembled a farm
that you could plant and pick veggies, fruits, play on tractors, and they even had a horse you could sit on.
The next area was Coletons favorite, it was a mini store that he could do his own shopping and he loved every moment of it. We went around picking out the items he needed

Took them to the register and rang him self up,
Even Hayden thought it was pretty amazing to so they worked together to get everything rung up!

They also had a construction sight, ball center,
and a small childrens area that they were able to play in. After we went throught the first level of activities they had another level that was for older children that of course Brandon had to go check out;)
First he decided to check out being a news caster...
Then he tried being a meterologist..
Then he tried working with the pipes to get a ping pong ball to the end...
Our last stop was outside were they had a real life flight helicopter for you to sit/play in so we went out and saw it. It was really loud and Coleton was terrified of it but Hayden thought it was pretty neat so he was willing to climb in with Brandon. After our trip the boys were exausted so we headed back to my parents house to get a long vacation nap. The day was really fun and the boys had a blast!

Girls Camp! (as a leader)
Now being in young womens, i was able to head to girls camp this year! They were in desperate need of leaders who could stay all week so i was one of the few that could do it! Joleen took the boys during the days and Brandon had took care of them once he got home from work. Sadly the week of girls camp was his area inservice so there was no way he could get it off but we were so grateful for his moms help! Camp went from wednesday morning to saturday morning and Branodn was able to come up as a priesthood leader on thursday night which was fun. The girls that he taught in seminary were thrilled to have him there and had him be part of there skit which was a suprise to him (they had him in a dance competition and he rocked it!!) I was in charge of all extra activities for our ward and though i planned some really fun ones for them they just wanted to do friendship bracelets and sleep so many of my activities never got used which was a little sad. I had almost 18 of my beehives at camp (only one was unable to come) and i had a lot of fun getting to know them! here they are attempting to get a picture of them jumping in the air but we just never made it!
Here is our group picture! The theme this year was "the kingdom of God" "camp-a-lot" empasising being daughters of a king!
Here is one of my favorite laurels Teisha Nelson, she reminds me of me at her age so its fun to hang around her!
And here is the camp director, Teresa Beardall. She was so much fun and i wish we had more chances to work with each other!!
All in all camp was great, we had great weather, ton of fun, and i learned alot about my girls and the leaders i worked with and i can wait til next year!!

Haydens 15month Stats!
We headed to the Dr today for Haydens 15month appointment and here is where he is at..
Weight- 25.38lbs 61%
Length- 33in 93%
HC- 47cm ?? (for some reason i didnt get that paper??)
Hayden is really doing great! He has quite the little personality and we just love having him around! He can say mom, dad, more, please, dog(kindof), and he is great at pointing to what he really wants! He loves to play outside and loves to be held!
He wants to be everywhere coleton is and loves to tease coleton by stealing his trains and thinks it is so funny when coleton scream and chases him to get the trains back!! He has quite the temper and sure can throw a fit!! He gets fustrated easy right now mostly because he plays with toys that are out of his age range but baby toys do not interest him at all! He loves to wrestle with Coleton and Brandon but only has one move which is to just sit on there heads! He has quite the mouth full of teeth he has 7 teeth on top and 7 on the bottom.
He is a biter but normally only bites his blanket, which is the only thing that he is attached to! A few weeks ago he fell and kind of got a black eye look
but his eyes are the thing that everyone notices still big, blue and beautiful! That is our little guy and he is growing so fast!

Hurricanes Fathers and sons!
Well, one week later, they went to our wards fathers and sons and they had a great time again!! The wind picked up and it rained a little but it passed quickly. They were camped on flat rock so they could not stake down the tent so when the wind picked up Coleton kind of panicked but after Brandons dad told him a story he calmed down and they had a great night. Coleton keeps asking when we can go camping again which is always a good sign!!



It will be pretty fun for them when Hayden will be able to join in on the fun! Just a few more years!

Cedars Fathers and Sons Campout!
Brandon, Coleton, and Hayden all headed down to cedar for the fathers and sons outing with Tom. Coleton was really excited to go and continued to ask me all day "Is daddy home yet to go campin?" They took Hayden with them, not to camp with them but because Joleen was wanting to spent time with just Hayden and it helped me out since i had a Young Womens activity at 8am cleaning the church.




It sure was lonely with everyone gone but they all had a great time and are looking forward to the next fathers and sons!
