A week of fun
4:33 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
We spent a week up in Sandy visiting Grandma and Grandpa Frost. It was very fun and relaxing and especially nice to have Charles be able to play with us instead of hiding in the basement doing homework. Have I mentioned yet how nice it is to have him done? It's VERY nice.
Get ready for a lot of pictures!
Whenever we go up, we always stay in Aunt Anita's room. This is Ethan and Ella getting ready for bed and jumping on the air mattress.
We also spent one night at the Frost/Jensen cabin. It's in Mount Pleasant (about 30 min. north of Manti) and was very nice. We just hung out, watched movies, went for walks, rode the ATV's and threw rocks in the river. Just some fun, much needed family time.
Ella had a lot of fun discovering new places at Grandma Frost's house. She figured out how to get under the table and played there for a little while. We had to rescue her though when she wanted to get out.

Charles has had this dump truck since he was about 4. They found it in the shed and decided to do to Ella what he did to his youngest sister, except, I wouldn't let him push Ella down the driveway.
Passing on his expertise to the next generation
NOW TO THE ZOO!!!
We went to the Hogle Zoo. Thanks to Baby Einstien's Baby Noah, Ethan knew what most of the animals were. He loved it! His eyes got really big when I asked him if he wanted to see the Elephants. What a cute kid. We also took Charles' nephew Alex with us. He had a lot of fun too.

Here is Ethan and Charles as we watched the penguins. We were in a really good spot. They kept swimming right over to us, probably expecting us to give them food. It was so cool! Ethan loved it.
This is in front of the giraffe (well, obviously)
Ethan and Alex measuring up the the gorilla.
This is on the elephant that blows air and hums "Pop Goes the Weasel" with his trunk. So cute!
And the last stop was a train ride. It was a lot of fun. We saw a lot of extra animals. The ones that stuck out to me were the turkey vultures and bald eagles.
What a fun day.

This huge ball floats and rotates on water. It's at the entrance to the zoo. We hit it last becuase it was zooed (ha ha, nice pun) when we got there. It was less crowded now, so we let the kids play with it. Water and Ethan just go together.
After the zoo, we met up with a couple of Charles' friends that he hasn't seen for a while and went out to dinner. I think Texas Roadhouse is one of my favorite places to eat. YUUUMMY!
