Wednesdays with Tiffany


For the past several summers, we spend a designated day of the week with Auntie Tiffany. Typically, she helps me take the kids to Seven Peaks, which is such a heaven-sent blessing! I discovered that Seven Peaks with Fisher and Quincy is nearly impossible. Anyway, this Wednesday was windy, rainy, and cold, so we spent a fun day visiting the Bean Museum, visiting the Provo Cemetery, and making homemade cinnamon rolls.

Fisher loves animals and spent his time at the museum shouting loudly at "Tee Tee" (aka Tiffany) to see all the different animals. She convinced him that the water buffalo was daddy. She also taught him to say "peacock" and "moose."


The girls loved the new cell phone feature at the museum to learn more about each animal. Quincy, as always, is just happy to go along for the ride. She thought this hippopotomas was particularly interesting.
This week was my Grandma Laynie's birthday, so we visited her headstone and took her flowers. I love that you can look at his headstone and instantly know the reason behind two of my kids' names. You may also note that my Papa Ace (still living) celebrated his ninetieth birthday last week. We had a BBQ with him and the kids helped him blow out the candles.
