Utah Trip July 2009






We had such a good time in Utah over the 4th of July! We went to the Tracy Aviary--Paige loved seeing all the different birds. The best find, though, was a bird nest in a corner between the wall and the ceiling at the entrance to the restrooms. Not anything planned by the aviary--but the baby birds were so cute and we got to watch the mom come back to feed them. The dad was keeping watch the whole time a short distance away. They were so cute! Anyway, we also visited the dowtown library in Salt Lake since Paige LOVES libraries. She had so much fun--they had lots of nooks where kids could find a cozy spot to read. Peyton even perused the shelves! We also went to the Bee's game on the 4th for fireworks. The game went really long--13 innings! By the end we were all chanting in our heads: "somebody, anybody, win so we can finally watch the fireworks!" Amazingly, the girls did really well with all that waiting (it was 11pm before the fireworks started). Peyton stayed up the whole time--until the fireworks started and then she promptly fell asleep. I guess the stadium lights were bothering her more than the loud booms! We also got to spend time with many of Ryan's relatives, which we loved visiting. We wish we could see them more often!
