Family Home Evening at the Park

One of the best things about Salt Lake City is Sugarhouse Park. On a whim I decided to take Allison there today. Then I thought why not make a Family Home Evening out of it. So my mom said she would meet us there on her way home from work and my dad came and brought KFC for a little picnic.

Allison and I got there early and walked all the way around the pond. There were lots of ducks, geese, small birds, and seagulls. The river was spilling over part of the sidewalk so I took my shoes off and walked through the water. We went back and forth through the river about five times. It felt good on my feet (Allison was in the stroller). Although Grandpa later put Alli's feet in the water and she did not like that. Too cold for her tender toes.

We ate our dinner and then walked up the river, not in the water, on the side of it. It is only a few inches deep and it is calm. The air felt cool by the water. There were other people walking in the water and kids and dogs splashing around.

We walked to the playground. There were lots of families with kids there. Grandma pushed Allison on the swing and we took her down the slide. We have so much fun watching her have so much fun.

It turned out to be a lovely evening full of fun, adventures, yummy food, good temperatures, and even better company.

*Change of subject...

Our little angel is so funny. This is how we find her almost every night when we go to check on her before we go to bed. She has turned 180 degrees and she gathers up her blanket to use as a pillow. I don't know about everyone else but we chuckle each time we see this. We cannot get enough of her!
