We headed up to Chris & Sara's last weekend and had the BEST time!! They live a few miles away from the airport and we lucked out that the Blue Angles were in town -- so it was fun surprise to be able to watch the airplanes soar by from their backyard! Sure beats fighting the crowd [which by the way, there were a TON of people camped outside their neighborhood in a little park ... who knew this was such a big event!] I must admit, they were pretty amazing though. Jackobi was fully entertained by the smaller airplanes that flew overhead before the show and actually slept through the Blue Angels portion. She thought the airplanes were so fun though!! She would dash outside each time she would hear them coming!
Jackobi loves animals, she practices her animal sounds almost everyday as she puts together her puzzles. We thought it would be a fun treat to take her and Lainey to the Tautphaus Park Zoo. It's a good little zoo! Perfect for little ones! It's big enough & has some fun animals, but small enough that you can make the entire loop before boredom sets in.
The swimming otters were a hit! She gazed at these guys for quite awhile!
Jackobi really liked the lions too. She was really intrigued that the "daddy" lion was sleeping while the "mommy" lion was working ... I think she's on to something!
Lainey's FIRST trip to the zoo!!
Lainey wasn't quite as interested as Jackobi. She gazed at a few animals, but quickly decided that the shaded paths were the perfect spot for a mid-afternoon snooze!
Although you can't tell it, Jackobi was rather excited for some Reed's Ice Cream once we left the zoo. It was the first time I had been there and it's amazing!! So good!!
We had such a great weekend! Most of the time we just sat around, visited & played with the kids. {of course the guys had to squeeze in a round of golf as well} but those are some of the best times!! I can't wait for our next trip up! Thanks Chris & Sara for such a fun weekend!

1 nice notes:
Looks like fun! Peyton's Grandpa (my Dad) was just in town and asked where he could take his granddaughter to a zoo. We responded with, Utah. You will have to tell me where this little zoo is.
