This post has a LOT of pictures in it, not like the other ones didn't or anything, but I just couldn't decide which ones to put in and which ones to leave out. This post is about our trip to the Living Planet Aquarium, the Zoo, and to Bee's baseball game.
First is our trip to the Living Planet Aquarium. The whole family was able to come to this one and we had a lot of fun.
See how happy she is when she is on the frog by herself. Now add Uncle Eric.....
and this is what happens!
She was so funny with the two boys one second she loved them and then the next she didn't want anything to do with them, but she really does love them so much and they love her too!
Family Picture on the frog!
The one thing I was so excited for was having Makayla touch the sting rays, they have them in an area where you can touch them. When I saw Makayla go right up and touch this snake I thought yes she is going to love the sting rays and be all about them. By the way she is not my daughter I HATE snakes!
When it came time for the sting rays this is what happened instead, she freaked out! She wanted nothing to do with them. She even got to the point where she didn't even want to look at them. Oh well the rest of us had fun touching them. Most of us did that is!
Uncle Eric taking his turn
I think Caleb had the most fun with this. He thought it was so cool to touch them.
Then it was my turn. I think my face says it all. Not a big fan of slimy things.
So cute! Uncle Eric, Makayla and Uncle Cory
We wanted a good picture of Makayla by the sting rays, so we took her back after we looked at everything else and she was ok being by them as long as we didn't try to make her touch them.
Grandma and Makayla!
I wanted to get a picture of Makayla with Grandpa though the glass, and it turned out pretty good, but the one I got before was even better!
I thought he was pulling a face at me, but he told me he was sneezing. What a funny picture!
After having so much fun at the Living Aquarium we decided to take Makayla to the Zoo. (not on the same day of course) She loves the zoo out here so we knew she would love it. The Utah Zoo is a lot bigger than the zoo out here, and to be honest sometimes smaller is better!
Drinking from the Lion's mouth!
We went to a bird show and after it Makayla was able to donate a dollar and have a bird take it from her hand. She thought it was so cool!
Riding the Tigers!
Look at the Iguana above there heads. Crazy!
No trip to the zoo is complete with out a ride on the carousal. She loves it so much! I was glad daddy was there to ride it with her so that I didn't have to worry about getting motion sickness!
Family picture again! I love these two so much!
Makayla and Uncle Eric
Grandma, Makayla, and Uncle Eric
We really had so much fun!
Giraffe Head!!!
One of Caleb's favorite things is baseball so we thought it would be fun to take Makayla to a game while we were out there. She did better than I thought she would, thanks to the boys entertaining her with seeds!
She would go from one to the other tasting both kinds of seeds that they had! The boys loved this time with her.
Cory got himself in trouble when he told Makayla to ask for a snow cone and I turned it back on him. He ended up giving into her, who could resist her, and bought her one. Look how happy she is!
Makayla also got to meet Bee. She was so proud and got her ticket signed and all. The only thing missing from this game was a baseball. Let me tell you we tried really hard to get her one too.
Thanks Grandpa for getting us the tickets!
That is it for this post!
Still more to come from Utah!
