Company Picnic 2011


We love going to Mountain Meadows every summer for Tom's company picnic!

The horse draw carriage was new this year - we were the first ones to ride since we got to the picnic soon after it started. The lines for this later on were crazy long

The thing about having 3 kids... someone is always not looking The boys had the most fun at the water balloon launching area - they are big sling shots. Because it was such a hot say they wanted to get wet - so here Colt's standing within range hoping for a cool down.

The theme this year was "Magic" - they had hired a magician to do a show, had this bunny farm, ect. There were tons of bunnies hopping around this pen but Heidi insisted on a baby white one to hold.

Colt got the fatty

Skyler loves this fluffy hairball, he was my favorite too

airbrush tattoos - very cool

Skyler's favorite part: the wagon full of sodas and ice (can you find him? He's to the front left in this picture)

Besides the ice cream bar and strawberries, Heidi loved the corn on the cob

Colt's favorite is always the ice cream.... just for fun here's a picture of him at his first of Tom's company picnics... he's barely one year old:

And when he was two: gotta love the ice cream!

What a cutie!

All the girls were asking for flowers - but not Heidi! She wanted a pink airplane. The clown even added a purple pilot and a handle. She loved it (until the heat caused it to shrink and wither away) Try explaining that to a 2 year old. Would've been easier if it had popped.

We spent a lot of time in the toddler playground

The races... Skyler won a blue ribbon in 2 events this year - he's fast! He was also at the top of his age division so that helped

Colt also did really well, but he was racing against 9 and 10 year olds -he came in about 4th or 5th in both races and was so disappointed not to get a blue ribbon. (he's the 3rd jumper from the left..in gray)

Wheee!

This is the train Heidi rode about 7 times.

A few times with Mom, a few with Skyler, and a few with Colt

Almost to old for this! I remember him riding this train at Heidi's age - and every age since. Good memories.

This was her last ride - she's saying "choo! choo!" then she'd yell "all aboard!" then, she had a huge meltdown as we carried her away.
