September

Max's Piano Teacher decided to go on sabbatical and I had the struggle of finding a new teacher for him. I made many calls and after narrowing it down by price and availability chose one. After only two lessons I knew she wasn't the right fit for Max and started the process over. We were so lucky to find sweet Elaine Lunt. She is in Grantsville so it is about a 20 minutes drive but well worth it. She is so loving and sweet with Max and he is enjoying lessons so much.

We took the boys bowling for their first time. They had a blast!

The whole family attended the ALPS Field Trip to the Utah Museum of Fine Arts. After a guided tour through the museum they participated in the fun craft activity and Max presented his city project. He has such a creative imagination and used all kinds of materials and spent weeks building his city.

We drive past the Tooele Train Museum several times a week and all summer long Max asks to go. We have been several times but this time we made it for the last day of exploring the exhibits inside the old train cars.

They have been fixing the small train cars so we haven't been able to ride them yet.

Inside the train cars are extensive miniature railway layouts and exhibits from when the trains were used in the military.

One Saturday we decided to walk across the Tooele Dam.
It is just a short walk and there is fishing on the other side.

Max planned Family Home Evening and taught us about Noah building the ark.
He gathered all the materials for us so we could build and sail our own boats.

Riding bikes, playing at the park, video games and ice cream were a few of our summer activities.
