The kids have two weeks of Spring Break this year. This week, we are hitting all of the places that are normally busy on weekends and Spring Breaks, but lucky for us, no other schools are out yet, so these destinations, that the kids have chosen, have been mostly empty. We started the week at the Living Planet Aquarium. Sadie loved the sharks in the tank, Sam's highlight was the octopus and Maggie loved the otters, it was the otters' 2nd Birthday on the day we went.

On Tuesday, we did a little shorts shopping as both Maggie and Samuel have outgrown all of their warm weather clothing. We ate lunch at the mall and ran a few errands which included getting Sam some new soccer cleats as he has also outgrown those.
Today, I got Sadie's two-year old photos taken in the morning, she was less than cooperative and would hardly give a smile; however, the photographer managed to get a few cute ones and half-smiles. After the photos, we headed to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point. Other then a few other moms, we had the entire place to ourselves. Maggie and Samuel were in heaven. They had the entire sand/water/erosion area to themselves and the digging for dinosaurs bones as well. It was a good day. Afterward, we headed to dentist appointments and cub scouts and now Maggie is at soccer practice. I enjoy having my kids home...they are growing up so fast.

Water, Sand, Erosion and Dinosaurs
On the agenda tomorrow and Friday...I haven't figured that all out yet, another dental appointment for Sam and maybe a climbing day at Momentum or swimming at the gym...we'll see how much energy I have...maybe a movie...The Lorax or John Carter. |
My kids loved that sand and water too :)
ReplyDeleteIt kind of sicked me out, all the kids in it, but they loved it! That museum is so fun...Utah has really aquired some awesome places.
Thank you so much for coming to my Dad's viewing. It meant so much to have old friends there. I will never miss another funeral for anyone I know, now that I know how comforting it is to have people there that know me. Thanks Charity, love ya.
