One thing after the other

We actually slept in this morning.  Something the kids never do.  Anyway we had a nice breakfast today, sausage, eggs, gogurt and donuts.  The kids played outside this morning while we packed up to go to town for fun.  We first stopped at the Logan Temple and took some pictures.  That is such a beautiful temple.  Then we went to the Willow Zoo.  The kids had fun looking at all the different animals.  The girls loved all the turtles.  The boys were excited about the bobcats and the boa snake that was wrapped in a tree.  The zoo was small but it was still a big hit.  Then next to the zoo were three parks so we took our snacks to the park and let the kids play.  The girls love to swing on the swings, we pushed and pushed.  We played a little bit of lava monster.  Then we went to the Stokes Nature Center.  It had lots of bones that the kids could look at.  Abby loved the different stuffed animals and tried to put on a puppet show.  The boys liked the boxes that had a hole in it and you put your hand in it and have to guess what your feeling.  They had a turtle shell in one, pine needles in one, a pine cone on another, and one other one.  They had different rocks to look at.  Some bugs to look at with a magnify glass.  Some snakes, fish, spiders, and other smaller animals.  It was a fun place to check out.  After that we went fishing.  No one caught anything but they had fun.  Then we came back to the cabin for dinner and roasted hot dogs on the fire and made smores.  Once it was too cold we came in for a game of rook.  This was such a fun day full of lots of different activities.  And the kids were all so well behaved.  I love vacations like this.  Totally relaxed and we just do what makes everyone happy.
