Summer Fun Pt. 1

We have had a crazy busy summer.  We had a lot of things we wanted to do and not a whole lot of time.  One thing we always love to do is the aquarium.  Its so nice because its close, and we have annual passes.  We are so excited for the new aquarium to open in draper.
 
The boys were a lot more brave than me and Brooklyn.  I don't ever dare touch anything.  We have had annual passes for 4 years and I still haven't ever touched the sting rays!
 

Shark Teeth!!
 

Row, Row, Row your Boat!
 

Brooklyn is a scaredy cat and wouldn't stand next to the penguin her size.  It freaked her out for some reason.
 

We also went downtown a couple times.  The kids loved taking the train.
 

On this day we went to the Gateway food court and each kid got to pick where they wanted to eat.
 

Right outside Energy Solutions Arena for Pioneer Day they had a fun reenactment thing.  They boys got to learn about how people did things a long time ago.  This guy is a blacksmith and was making horseshoes.
 

Learning about war guns.
 

Going on a fun wagon ride around downtown.
 

They also got to ride horses and grandma bought them both a fun bow and arrow to remember the day.  Brooklyn was there too, but she was too hot and tired to enjoy any of it.
 
We also went to the fountains that day to play.  The boys had lots of fun.  Brooklyn, not so much.
