The Living Planet Aquarium!

If you have driven through the Salt Lake area recently you might have seen the many signs for the Living Planet Aquarium, well so did I! And it looked so cute I thought that it was worth a trip! I convinced Drew and David to tag along, and they were very sweet about going with me.

However, when we got there it was literally a grocery store sized building(a small one at that)! We were thinking it was going to be like the Long Beach Aquarium, not so much :P It was cute but sort of a let down!

David and Drew being sweet and smiling for a picture!

Fishes! 

Love my Hubby!

Touching the stingrays!

Gotta love my guys!

Sharkie Drew :)

So later that day we went to the movies with the whole family and when we got back we saw this little guy! Tiny little snake, but still scared me!

This is the Place-Heritage Park!

So after the Hogle Zoo, we went across the street to This is the Place, Heritage Park! It was really interesting to see all the shops and items from back in the pioneer days.

On the train! I love trains :)

This was Brigham Young's Farm house.  

While we were in the house this cute little family band came and started playing music from the day!

Reindeer!! They were on a 'No-Fly' day :P hehe!

We got to pan for 'gold'!!!

Woohoo I got some!

I found some gold for Drew too :)

The DUNCE in the one room school house! ;)

Baby Train!

 

Drew said he HAD to have some doughnuts!
As you can tell we were exhausted by this point, but they were delicious!

We got to stamp our own little leather squares!!

This was a very fun and very full day! Totally recommended! 

Utah's Hogle Zoo

Yesterday we got to go to the ZOO!! And This is the Place, Heritage Park (but that is going to be a different post)  I love the zoo! It was myself, my mom, Drew, Hanalee and Kevin! It was great fun :)

Mom's mask is creepy!!!!

Drew loves monkeys!             Cute Elephants!

Metal Gorilla!                   Orangoutangs!

Okay so we walked into the Gorilla room and this terrifying creature was standing staring at the glass.  I was sooo scared, Drew thought it was super cool! All I could think about was Planet of the Apes! Soo scary!!

Then, I saw this sign saying that when they get close to the glass its because they are feeling aggressive :/ EEEEEEK!

This is Drew and Kevin trying to be a gorilla!

Llama! Hehehehe!

These tigers were AMAZING!! They were so lively and exciting!! I love this picture cause mom and Drew are so happy and the tiger is growling above them!

This Elephant would make noises and blow air, scared me real good! :P

Drew and Kevin did not think this would work, but I think it turned out awesome!! Soo funny!!

I like this one too!!

Lovey seals!

Twins!!! Hehehehe!

The CocaCola Bear!

Cute mommy!

I love giraffes!

Riding the train!! Woohoo!

Drew is so sweet cause he is not a fan of these types of things, but does them for me :)

Couples time!

They had these sweet Peek-a-Boo holes!! hehehe!

Hana and Kevin wrestling a gator!

Kevin the turtle!

Drew and I went to a zoo in Idaho and I have a picture of me coming out of an egg there, so he insisted I get in this egg! It took me forever to get in and out :P

Hogle Zoo is definitely a must if you are ever in Utah!
