 End of 1st Grade

Beginning of 1st Grade  

This is Isaac's year end photo from school.  I think it is funny how they do pictures at the start of the year and then again towards the end of the year.  It turned out pretty cute at least.  Fun to see the difference from the start to the end!  He has teeth in this one. 

 Sarah's preschool class went on a field trip to the fire station so Katie and I went too!  Sarah was not so sure about the fireman in all the gear.  She definitely does not like people in costumes!  Her class with Ms. Sheralyn.  She loved her preschool class.

 We headed to the new Aquarium to check it out.  It has taken them forever to build this building and transition the animals from one location to the other.  Unfortunately when we went half of the exhibits are still empty.  So we will go back later in the summer to see the new exhibits.  The kids thought it was great though.

 The under water walkway was definitely the highlight of the aquarium.  It was fun to have sharks swim right over you.

 Isaac kept asking me to take his picture with the sharks.  If you look closely it is right over his head.  Although this selfie of us turned out really well with the turtle swimming over us.  (didn't plan that one)

 One of the largest steam engines make its way through Salt Lake and Ogden so we decided to go and check it out.  This train was called the Big Boy and was used in the 1940's and 50's.  It was retired in 1962 and has been in a museum in California.  Union Pacific has decided  that the 600-ton steam engine would undergo a five-year restoration.  The kids had a great time looking at the steam engine.  

 Of course we had to go and explore all the other old trains as well.  My grandfather used to work for Rio Grande so it is always fun seeing their trains.  Isaac is so cute because he remembers me telling him that story and he asked me to take his picture.  My Grandpap would be happy to see this picture!

 They also had a bunch of trains the kids could climb on.

 Sarah had the cutest Mother's Day program and the kids sang to us.  I will upload a video of one of the songs soon!  Sarah and 2 of her friends, Shaylee and Charlie.
