The weather was perfect today. It wasn't hot. It wasn't cold. I fear an unbearable summer so I am trying to fit in as much outdoor fun as possible before I am forced to hide in well air conditioned buildings for a few months. Today the kids and I went to the This is the Place Heritage Park, where we spent four perfect hours.
Clockwise from top left: Ruby wandering through the grass of the orchard, Gavin climbing an apple tree, a log train in the park playground (Gavin can't resist trains, just like his daddy!), Ruby spelling her name in the Deseret Alphabet-- printed very small under her name on the slate), the miniature firehouse, Gavin doing the laundry in the pioneer chores cabin, and Ruby plowing the field (we clearly support non-stereotypical gender roles in our home!)
We happened to go during Baby Animal Days, which meant there were plenty of adorable animals to pet and feed and hold and wish you had a farm (that other people cleaned!). Ruby loved being able to hold the animals and was able to get them with total ease (no chasing or choke holds). We were also lucky enough to be the only people in the stables when it was time to feed the lambs. The kids were in heaven.
