Hogle Zoo

I have been wanting to take the kids to Hogle Zoo for quite some time now...but I never seem to find the time. Well, since it is hunting season and Carl is gone hunting a lot, one weekend the kids and I (well really me...it was a surprise for the kids) decided to pack up and drive down to Salt Lake. We stayed with my sister Melanie and hung out with her. Friday, Alicia (who was down in Provo anyway) and Jacque came up the Hogle Zoo with us. It was so much fun. The kids love seeing the animals. Kya said she wants to work in a zoo...surprise, surprise. I call her my "animal whisperer". I really think she speaks to animals and understands them.

It was so fun hanging out with Melanie and her family. Jenna (her oldest girl) loves animals too and she and Kya got a long great. Jenna helped Kya learn how to draw horses...so cute. We sure missed Carl, but he was having fun hunting the animals...haha.

That looks like a fun day at the zoo! I haven't been to the Hogle Zoo for a long time. I bet the kids had a ball! You guys have so much fun together. Miss ya!

How Fun!! One of my favorite things to do with the girls when they were little...except for Tess, she couldn't get over the unjust of the animals being locked up. Such a free spirit! I have the same picture of Madison and Bailey inside the Dino egg...time goes too fast!

I keep doing a double take when I see your picture. That dark hair surprises me every time!
