We just spent 5 days in Delta with Tim's family so I could get my Drivers Licence taken care of. Yes, yes, sad to admit that it expired in September 2009. I just have to say, "WAHOOO!!!!!!!". I am so glad we went to Delta to do it. I just walked right in (NO LINE) and was taken care of with four very kind people tending to my every need. I also did not have to take a driving test like I thought I would, just a written one which I got 100% on (I am not a very good test taker so I can pat myself on the back for that one)!!!
Anyway, beside finally getting my drivers licence we has such a great time. When we left I told Tim that it was my favorite trip we have ever made there. The only sad part is that my Camera batteries were dead so I did not get any pictures to remember it by. But I thought I would write about it anyway.
On Saturday we..
1. Went to the Millard County Fair where we watched a few performances, viewed all the items on display and let the kids pet all the animals.
2. Played games with Grandma Dora
3. Went swimming at the public pool. Emery was really brave and she even let me teach her some swimming lessons. By the time we left she was able to blow bubbles, put her head under the water, float on her back with support, glide with support, jump into the water to someone and walk around in the shallow end. I think Kaven just smiled the WHOLE TIME! I got a kick out of watching him wiggle around and try to copy what Emery was doing. We set him on the steps in the shallow end and he would walk down ALL the steps and touch the bottom of the pool with his tippy toes and his mouth/smile barely above the water. He would walk/run as far out as he could until he would go under or someone would stop him. The funny thing is as he went under water you couldn't even tell by his expression because he kept that huge smile on his face and eyes still open with those big eye lashes. Needless to say we had to keep a hand on him at ALL TIMES. He also got involved in the water basketball game with his dad and uncles and thought he was pretty cool.
