Here is the 2nd part of my Utah trip. Just to warn you now, there are A LOT of pictures. It was hard to narrow them down and I took more pictures than I thought I did. So enjoy!

While the girls were making jam in the real kitchen the boys were downstairs having a great time with the toy kitchen. They are really starting to enjoy playing with each other.

This is at the school playground right next to my grandma's house. It has a futuristic look to it. I loved this teeter totter though because you could ride it by yourself. It never hits the ground because it has a spring in the middle that just makes it bounce. Even I rode it, ha ha.

We went to the local carnival and I got to ride the Ferris Wheel with Nikki and Garrett. They each got to ride the Carousel too.

Now this is at Thanksgiving Point at the petting zoo. This is an egg that was hatching. I guess I skipped a picture when I was uploading because there was supposed to be one above this with Nikki and Jack looking at some baby chicks. Oh well. It's after midnight, I'm tired.

This is a big scale they had that compared their weight to farm animals. They had fun with this and I even got on with them too. I think we weighed the amount of 3 sheep or something.

Nearby where they do a carriage ride they had these little buildings that the kids went inside. I think this one was a bank.

In another building they had things about farming and crops and the different insects that could be good or bad for crops. Jack is holding onto a big tire that has slots in it for where the kids could pretend to plant seeds with some cards that had pictures of different plants on them.

Here is the truck you would put the little cards on once they were "harvested". It had a conveyor belt that would slide them to the front of the truck. And from there you would put some in a basket and take them to the market in some stands nearby.

With our ticket to get in we had the choice of doing a pony ride or carriage ride. Nikki was the only one that ended up doing anything because it was incredibly windy outside and she wanted the pony ride. My aunt just kept the other tickets to use for her grandkids some other day.

Nikki at my cousin's wedding breakfast. The food was really good. It was the first time I'd ever had a rolled up omelet.

Garrett is enjoying himself. Because we had assigned seating we were put at a table where we didn't know anyone but Garrett quickly made friends with the guy sitting next to him. They were sword fighting with their knives at one point.

Nikki had me take several pictures of her by the Salt Lake Temple while we were waiting for my cousin to come out of her wedding sealing. I think she's practicing. She even told me before this wedding that she wanted to get married in the Salt Lake Temple.

They had their reception at Wheeler Farm in SLC. When I heard it was going to be in a barn I was a little worried but as you can see it's actually pretty nice. Hard floors and everything.

It's great to see the remainder of your trip pictures! I'm glad you got to get away for so long and have a wonderful mini vacation with the kids!
