The Friday after Ethan's birthday we headed to Salt Lake to spend a few days. We planned on going to the Lion House Restaurant for lunch on Friday. When we got into downtown Salt Lake the traffic was unbelievable. We couldn't even get to the restaurant. We decided to just head towards the zoo and find a place to eat along the way. When we got to the zoo, we couldn't believe how many people there were! I have never seen it so busy. We ended up staying until they closed and the kids had a good time. We spent the night in a hotel in Midvale and the favorite thing there was the swimming pool. The next morning we went to the Utah Museum of Natural History, where the boys got to touch actual dinosaur bones and watch some workers doing work on them. There were a lot of interesting things in the museum. Next, we headed to This is the Place 
State Park. We had planned on just staying for an hour or so, kind of something to fill the time. We ended up staying for almost 5 hours and could have stayed longer. This was probably the funnest place for all of us. There were so many things to see and do there. The pictures on this post are of Ethan pressing apple cider and Maya riding a horse at the park. The weather was perfect, and there weren't alot of people. To end our day we went to The Living Aquarium. Alex was excited for this because the last time we went he didn't dare to touch the stingrays they have swimming in the open pool. This time he was determined, and he did it, over and over again. We had to put a little pressure on him to keep moving through the aquarium. We had a good weekend, but the combination of not getting enough sleep and eating a lot of junk food makes Ethan and Maya CRAZY!!! Which in turn makes Mom and Dad CRAZY!!! We were all glad to get home.
