Our New Friend


At the beginning of the summer,my sister-in-law Shelly, introduced our family to a prior student of hers who happened to be doing an internship in the Salt Lake Valley for the summer. I was not sure how much Kristen would enjoy hanging out with my family but I was glad that she would at least know someone. We invited her to an event at Rocky Mountain Speedway where we got to watch all sorts of races. We also went to dinner before hand at Five Guys Burgers and Fries so that she could try the infamous "fry sauce" she had heard so much about.
Our favorite event of the night was definitely the "train" races where they had three old cars hooked together and raced in a figure 8. It was so entertaining to watch!
We also invited Kristen to a Minor League Baseball game where we watched the Salt Lake Bees get whooped by Sacramento. The kids really enjoyed their free hot dog and drink and so did mom.

We also saw the Armstrong and Williamson families at the game, so there were plenty of friends to play with when the game got a little boring. ;)
Nothing like a rainy day in June....
I'm sure this is not the recommended use for this scooter but Lucas sure thought it was fun.
