This year we are not going on a big lavish vacation, so we decided that we should take a fun "stay"cation in Salt Lake City. We had a lot of fun acting like tourists; we were from out of town after all. (There are way too many pictures for just one blog post so I am going to break it into several posts to spare your computer's video card from having a heart attack.)
Friday: (Drama and Pooh Bear missed school for this vacation)
First stop was Grandma and Grandpa Van Horn's House. Aria was having her own personalized vacation with doting grandparents. Apparently she went to the Home and Garden show with them and helped pick out new carpet? She has her own set of standards, drool absorbancy being top on the list.
By now it was lunch time so we headed to Hires, yum.
Next we headed to the Hogle Zoo. I have great memories of the Hogle Zoo, sadly they have quit giving rides on the elephants (can you say lawsuit?). That sad fact aside, we loved watching the baby elephant and her mommy, the giraffes, gorillas, monkeys, etc, etc, etc. Ask Drama to show you her pictures, but only if you have an hour.
The Boss didn't like being so close to the animals real, fake, statue. No. Thank. You.
This is as close as she would get to the rino statue.
If you go to Hogle Zoo you have to get this picutre.
This looks like a great Stay-cation. I am amazed at how grown up Anna is! Shes a little girl now days.
