May 27 - June 2 2018

A screenshot I took because Daniel and I have been wanting to take the Little Atwells to an amusement park. Lagoon is not too far from us and it would be fun to go with fellow BYU-I alumni! We'll see if it actually happens..

At one point we were pretty sure Eleanor had hand foot mouth. Dalton started showing signs soon after as well. I took some pics to send to Daniel at work. However, we're still not sure if that's what it was because these spots on their feet, hands and around their mouth were the only symptoms. They were never fussy and they didn't act sick. Who knows. I have heard that the younger you have hand foot mouth, the milder the symptoms are. So perhaps they did have it. 

While taking pics of Ella, Maylee wanted one, too.

Screenshot I took of a princess dance camp that had Maylee's name written all over it! Unfortunately, we just couldn't afford it this summer (thanks to the Utah Child Tax 2018). Hopefully next summer. It did work out though because she was able to do a 6 week summer ballet class!

Daniel and I have been wanting to go on some hikes with the Little Atwells. I looked some up and took a screenshot of this one that would be fairly close to us. We haven't done it yet, but hope to soon.

There is such a fun park pretty much in our backyard. This week they hosted a carnival. We went the first night it opened and the Little Atwells got to jump in some jump houses and eat popcorn and cotton candy. They also had a cute little train going around that we went on. Dalton loved that.

This is a pic of the train. So cute!

We went back to the carnival at night when the rides were going. We planned to ride the ferris wheel. Horrid idea! It was fun for memories sake, but what we didn't realize was how expensive carnivals were! By the time we figured it out it was too late to turn around; the Little Atwells would've been devastated had we left without riding the ferris wheel! So, we spent the amount of one weeks worth of groceries and went on the ferris wheel. We got in line and Dalton started freaking out. He did not want to go on it. Once we got up close to it he realized how tall it was and he was not having it! By some miracle Daniel and I managed to talk him into it. We all got on and the Little Atwells froze. They didn't know what to think. I'm pretty sure Dalton cried the entire time. I don't even remember anymore. Oh well, I suppose bad days plus time equals humor, right?

We love you Little Atwells!
