The Zoo

After spending a week in St. George for our family reunion we came home for a day and a half and then we were off again. We went to Santaquin to see my family and also to go to the Spanish Fork rodeo. While Wayne's visit was mostly for work (he had to go to Vernal ) the kids and I were there for more fun. On Monday Wayne left for Vernal the kids and I went to the Hogle Zoo. I was Kaitlyn and Ty's first time and Megan's second (although it might as well been her first, she doesn't remember the last time). It was almost the perfect day to go. It was very overcast and cool, if it wasn't for the humidity it would have perfect. My sister Karri loves the zoo and thank goodness she does cause without her we would have had no way of getting there. She was also our personal tour guide. We started out with the monkeys and Megan and Kaitlyn were so excited to see a real live monkey. Ty wasn't as excited at first because the monkeys had to move before he could see them. As soon as the did he was growling and screaming at them. Then we moved on to the other animals. Kaitlyn was very adamant about making sure we saw the giraffes and megan the bears. Ty loved any animal that moved.
To finish the day off we took the Hogle Zoo train. We had a great time and hope that daddy can come next time and thank Aunt Karri for being our transportation and tour guide for the day

So, its so fun that your blog is a zebra background in honor of your zoo trip. In a few years (and assuming our return to Cedar goes as planned) we'll be making similar trips with our girls, while Ty and Bud are out throwing balls at some State final in SLC. :-)

You guys never seem to quit. I don't know how you find the energy. I'm glad that you spend so much time together. Your kids will always remember the memories.
