2012, Week Eight

A beautiful butterfly to start the week off right. Orlando, the boys, and Mary celebrated the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday by spending the entire day at the Science Center.
ImageHa-ha! Look at Keegan walking so well now that he's motivated to catch butterflies.

Red shirts and white sleeves were a nice contrast to the green leaves.ImageOrlando picked up a new friend.
ImageThe greenest butterfly we've ever seen.ImageDallin found a new friend too!
ImageBig wheel keeps on turnin', Proud Mary keeps on burnin'. Rollin',rollin', rollin' on a river.
ImageLaser Beatles was incredible! But can you believe that Keegan fell asleep?
ImageTime to wake up and make some noise!
ImageWe found the Dempsey's in the play area and constructed a sweet tower.ImageNow there's a feeling that I'm after, so please don't think my love's bizarre. But I hear music, girl, and laughter, inside of my guitar.
ImageWe took in an Imax movie that showed the story of connecting the railroad network through the rocky mountains. We all loved it. But when it was over, Dallin walked over to the dinosaur exhibit and got crushed by a duckbill.
ImageThe last stunning spectacle before leaving the Science Center.
ImageOne of Dallin's more unusual outfits.
ImageVincent came over to play ball.
ImageThese young padawans honed their lightsaber skills with evasive bubbles.
ImageFun bath time!
ImageTara's company's party was held at the EMP and everyone had an absolute blast. Here's a shot of them in the studio.
ImageAnd a short clip of an enthusiastic jam session.

Check out the sweet souveniers!

See it in HD on youtube here:
Tara had a blast at the Ladies gathering in Lori Argyle's home Saturday morning. After that, we all came over for Missy and Kyla's Pampered Chef party. Batman, War Machine, and Iron Man saved the day!
Image

Later that evening, Tara, Missy, and the kids had a great time at Chucky Cheese while Orlando stayed home with Keegan who slept for 16 hours.

Uncle Ryan and Emily came over for Dinner and then entertained the kids. First with rides...

And then with the magic bag!

The best way to end the wonderful week was with a new game that we all enjoyed.

Happy birthday, Keegan!

Keegan loved to open his presents almost as much as playing with them.
ImageHe couldn't wait to dive into his cake.
Image"Is it just me or are you guys having a little bit of difficulty getting this huge piece of cake into your mouths?"
Image"Ah-ha! I'll use a spoon!"
ImageWe think he was more amused by our reactions than the tasty cake.
ImageWhere is Dallin? Peek-a-boo, Keegan!
