The Vance Family

 Hanging out with Grandma Lucie in Green Canyon.

 Shooting arrows with Hortin Hears a Who & Grandma Lucie.  Royce kicked some serious butt, but Hortin & Grandma were catching on pretty quickly.

 Playing chess with Grandpa Buggy.  Grandpa won, but Syd held him off with 1 man for some time!

 We were able to spend some time with cousins, & decided to take them to the zoo with us!

 We saved the best for last...the train!

 The next day we spent some time at the gardens.  I think they may have liked this even better than the zoo.  The weather was perfect & they had plenty of time to run around and play however they chose.

 Snack time in a cute hideout under a tree with handmade wood chairs in the children's area.

 We went to dinner for Grandma Lucie's birthday and these three decided to share a meal.  Syd very maturely ordered a chimichanga plate with a side of fries for them to share.

 Happy Birthday Grandma Lucie!  Thanks for inviting us to be a part of the celebration!

 Royce taking a break during fishing to look for bugs.

Royce has wanted to build a trebuchet for years, and he finally got the chance!  Uncle Glenn and Ty helped him to build this model & they were launching huge rocks & then finally water balloons.  A dream come true for that man for sure!
