Plan B

We headed out yesterday as a family to go to the zoo. Unfortunately, so did the rest of Utah and half of Idaho. With no parking to be found from Sunnyside to Emigration Canyon, we defaulted to plan B. We diverted to Tracy Aviary.

Before we visited the birds, Macy got to ride the very charming rides at Liberty Park. They are very old and all squeaky metal. I had no idea how many fun things were at the park. We will definitely go back to explore the rest.


Macy was so excited to give them her tickets each time.

She loved the ferris wheel and really wanted to go back today.  



Side note: I think I have roughly 600 pictures of various carousel rides. I always feel compelled to take a picture each time she comes around just in case it captures the perfect expression. It is really ridiculous. Three hundred and eighty six of those pictures are from the Summerhays family trip to the zoo right before my parents left on their mission.  


This was her favorite part of the Aviary: A little building that I called the school. Macy knows that her cousins go to school and she was so happy to play student herself.


It turned out to be a nearly perfect day (you understand the "nearly" part if you saw the BYU game and/or the Utah game).

Cousin Time

We love it when Katie and Kiara come to town because we spend lots of time with the Ashby family. With so many little ones, we always have fun and it's always crazy.  And I usually forget to take pictures but I did manage to get a few at the beginning of September.

Being temporarily insane or brave, we went to lunch at Gardner Village. When we told them we needed a table for five adults and eight kids, they very wisely banished us to the basement by ourselves! It was great.



But that didn't stop the little ones from trying to escape.

Can you believe I got a picture with all of them looking? Miracle.

Macy's first pony ride without us walking alongside. She loves to do everything "by self."
