The Circus Comes to Town

Thursday was Jake's birthday. Jamie and I had both won 4 free tickets to the circus and it was on Jake's birthday. Spence didn't want to go. He doesn't like the circus...sheesh. Anyways, I had never been and so I went with Jamie, Jake and the kids. They got to ride the trax to the Energy solution Center and that was fun, too.
I know I took more pictures than what I am finding on my card. It might be that I took some on the camera's memory card and for that I would need to hook it to the computer. So here are just a few shots of the evening. First, we ate at Siegfried's. And then on to the circus.

Jamie and Jake enjoying German food at Siegfried's. Spence was sorry he missed this part.

I get a cute look from Grayson!

Ty really loves the German food, brats, fried potatoes and red cabbage. Breck says the red cabbage does not taste like grandma's. What's wrong with it? Logan hates the water, after all we are in Salt Lake and the water here is not all that great. Breck says can she get some mac and cheese??

Here are the strong men.

I guess that was pretty effortless on his part.

The elephants do lots of cool things and they are really fun to watch.

I love it when we hold hands!

A Little About Tyson Jacob

Tyson is a happy 9 year old with lots of talents and abilities. He knew the names of all the planets when he was just about 18 months old. He started talking at such an early age it was incredible. He seems to like basketball more than any sport and also enjoys baseball. He will start 4th grade in the fall of 2010. He has already traveled alot with me for his young years, to southern Utah, Texas, Germany and Switzerland. He is a real thinker and enjoys spending time with his grandpa Spencer, shooting, fly tying, golf and fishing.

A Little About Brecklyn Brianne

Brecklyn is the only girl in the family and so she has a special place in my heart. She is a pretty "Tiny Dancer" just like her mom always was. She is starting kindergarten in the fall of 2010 and just can't wait. She loves to go walking with grandma Sonja and never says no when I want to walk just a little farther. She makes friends easily and even makes friends at places such as the McDonald's playground. She has received several trophies at her dance performance competitions where her group seems to always get 1st place.

A Little About Logan Spencer

Logan is going to be in Pre-school in the fall of 2010. He is a very active 4 year boy. He enjoys soccer, just like his dad and basketball, just like his big brother, Ty. He and Ty are not at all alike and look and act totally different. It is hard to believe that they are brothers! Logan loves to play in the sandpile as my blog shows and doesn't think fishing is such a great sport. Afterall, why should it take so long just for one measly little fish? He learned to ride his bicycle at age 3 and loves to be grandpa's little buddy.

A Little About Grayson

He's here, born June 30-, on his great-grandmother's birthday. That makes him super special. 7 lbs. 3 oz. 18 1/2 inches. He's a little guy, blonde and sweet. He is definitely a "Momma's boy" and will only allow others to hold him for a very short time. Then he lets you know he is very unhappy. But I am sure this will change eventually and he will find out other people are fun and interesting too. We love this little guy and look forward to see what he thinks about his very first Christmas!
