The Zoo

We decided this trip would be a fun time to spend as a family. As well as to take advantage of what Salt Lake has to offer. We were trying to decide between the Zoo and the Aquarium. We decided the zoo would be better for two reasons. Most of it was outdoors so we could be a little more lenient with our masks, the zoo is also cheaper than the aquarium. So off we went to the zoo. It was so fun and the kids had such a great time. After we were hungry and it was still a little ways till our dinner plans with Nathan and Shelly's family. So we headed to Applebee's for lunch.

After "lunch" we headed to the Riggs house to hang out a little before heading out to dinner with them. We went to a Japanese steakhouse where they cook the food in front of you. It was fun to watch Kilian. His eyes would get so big when the chef would add oil and a flame would flare up. It was a fun way to end the night as well as our trip to Salt Lake.

Dinosaur museum

Todays adventure was heading to George Eccles Dinosaur Park with Uncle Bob and his little boy Lucas. The kids had so much fun together. Although Avery and Lucas together equals sheer chaotic anarchy. The two of them took off without looking back. It took us probably a good 15 minutes wandering the park till we finally found them. Despite the rebel independent spirits of our children :p we had a fun day.

Salt Lake trip

We had plans to go up the weekend to be able to attend Abby's wedding. However it was canceled a few days ago. After talking it over though James and I decided it would still be fun to go up and spend time together as a family. 

So after James got off work we started to make our way North. Heading up to Salt Lake we stopped in Scipio to gas up and there is a cute little petting zoo. It was closed but the kids still had fun just looking through the fence. It was a nice time to stretch and take a break from the drive.
