Saturday at the Park



About a week ago, a neighbor of mine mentioned that he takes his son over to the West Jordan City Park. I had completely forgotten about this enormous playground until he brought it up again. We had only been there once, when we went to the West Jordan Stampede last Fourth of July. So, last Saturday we took the boys over to the park and had a great time (see photos above). We said we would do it again this week, and this time I made sure the batteries in my camera were actually going to withstand the outing (see photos below).
Ryan has a super cute face in a lot of these shots because he thought he was teasing me by not letting me take his picture. I followed him all around the park, trying to be sneaky about getting a good shot- or at least one where he was looking at the camera. I only succeeded some of the time.

We had a great time and are enjoying the good weather, although it too will be short-lived, according to the forecast. Will this winter ever end?

Wow! That is a great playground. I actually love some of the shots you got when he's not looking. And that sweet little baby is just yummy!!

Spode Dish Factory

I went with a few friends on a mommy-field trip to the Spode Dish factory in Malaysia.  We had the best time and it was an experience I won't soon forget.  We met at Becky's in the morning and got our three car caravan ready to go.  We said a prayer, did a cheer and were off at about 9 am.  We crossed the border without any issues (except for toll top-up cards) and hit the road.  In about an hour we arrived at this little side-of-the-road pottery market.  It was typical of a third-world place. True Outlet shopping.  There was a nice aluminum roof and some big fans to keep us cool.  The plates were very dusty from being outside so long but there were so many lovely treasures.  We all had a good time just wandering around searching for new dishes. I was looking for a set of every-day dishes and anything else was a bonus in my mind.  Spode is a European brand that outsources production to Malaysia.  Their retail cost is pretty high...

Skiing

This winter has been AWFUL so far.  I just KNEW it would be too!  We've had two very mild winters back to back and I knew that meant we would have to pay for it this year.   The inversion has been so bad this year that since Christmas it's been above 30 degrees like 3 or 4 times!!! Most days, it's been in the teens or lower.  I've been substituting for a teacher who was on maternity leave since December 10th.  So many inside recess days, I thought I was going to lose my mind.   My long-term job ended on Friday and with Martin Luther King Junior day on Monday, I just really wanted to get out of the inversion.  I tried to convince Colin to go to Las Vegas with me but we decided that wasn't very realistic, still cold there too.   Then I proposed skiing and we both decided it would be really fun to take the boys!  I was really pretty nervous about teaching both of the boys but the day was so amazing I couldn't even believe it.  ...
