Our Day at Hogle Zoo

After many stops and starts on June 3rd, and Aeva's first call to 911 (in which the police showed up to her cousins house...long story) we finally made our first visit as a family to Hogle Zoo. It was great! We went much later in the day and it felt as though we had much of the park to ourselves. There's a fun little scale model train that goes around the park (which Liam adored) and a great little playground. The big cats exhibit, which looks like a really cool Tibetan mountain village, was very nice. It was disappointing though since we didn't see any of the big cats. They were all hiding. My son thinks he is the Dude version of Snow White or Sleeping Beauty. Here he is, singing to the zebras to try and get them to respond or come over to him:

Here's our adorable Aeva playing in a huge egg:



And here's me and the kiddies on a cool elephant that made sounds (i.e. snoring, sneezing, and even would blow water out of its trunk and spray you if you stood in front of it). Liam was obviously a afraid of it:



Next desired adventure/outing with the kiddies: Children's Discovery Museum in Salt Lake :-)
