This is the Place Heritage Park had a free day! So we went. The sun was shining and the temperature was mid 70s. I'll take it! However, two-year-olds don't understand much about pioneer living. And McKenna, true to form, was scared of all the sheep, chickens, and horses. So, we enjoyed walking in and around less than half of the old building but she got to try beating a rug or two. We also met up with Dan's sister, Brynn, and her family. By far, the best part (for Kenna) was riding the TRAINS! Unfortunately, because it was so crowded (remember is was FREE), we HAD to take our strollers on the train with us, and we HAD to get off at every stop and either hike back to where you really wanted to end up, or stand in a long line again for the next train. McKenna didn't seem to mind. But boy was it exhausting for her mother! ;)
With cousin Katie on the first train ride.
The rest of Brynn's family. It was squished and cozy!
Ben was on the floor, happy to play with his toes.
Smile! Aren't we having fun?!?! It was lunch time.
Picture on the second train ride. Again, doesn't she look thrilled? :)
Another highlight was the FREE ice cream! She managed to get very little, if any, on her hands and clothes. What a cute chocolate face!
We also recently attended a work picnic with my sister Mickelle who lives in Provo. She was allowed to invite her family this year.
There were some fun games: lawn darts
I can't remember why she was pouting, but it's still cute.
The picnic area was up Provo Canyon, of course near the swift and deadly, super high Provo River. We kept and very close eye on McKenna dear!
You can kind of see how fast the water's moving in this video.
There also happened to be a swift water rescue team running drills and training right by us.
Thanks Aunt Pickle for the yummy lunch, great company, and afternoon naps at your apartment after!
