Our trip..

So, even though we don't really have extra money to do very much lately, we decided we had to get out of town and go do something... anything.. to just let ourselves relax a little bit. We went to Salt Lake on Friday and went to a play off Grizzly hockey game. They lost really badly, but it was still fun. It was Brenans first game in real life, and he had a blast. He was running around and yelling at the players to "go" "shoot" and "get him"... lol. It was so much fun to watch him. He would jump up and down and cheer for them, even though he really doesn't know what they are doing yet. He was flirting with the girls around us, and the guy in front of us was feeding him popcorn, so he had a lot of fun. Then we went back to the hotel and he got to watch TV for a while before going to sleep. It was way past his bedtime, but he got in some snuggle time with his dad, so I let it go. On saturday, we got up and went to breakfast. After we got done, we went to Brenans new favorite place. We went to Hogle Zoo! He was really not happy about having to wait in line to get tickets, he wanted to "go see monkey!" Once we got in, he didn't last in his stroller very long.. he got out and was running around everywhere. He hollered "HI" at the animals that he saw, and would wave his hands at the ones that he thought were looking at him. He gives great commentary on what the animals were all doing. I was cracking up all day! He loved the white crocodile... It was hard to get him out of that building! He liked the elephants, was not real impressed with rhinocerus's, and laughed really hard at the penguins. The highlight of his day, I think, was the train ride. He didn't want to get off once we were done. After the train ride, we let him play on the playground for a little bit, then went to get lunch and go home. He was asleep pretty quick once we hit the freeway. All in all it was a great weekend. My only regret was that I forgot to grab the camera on the way out the door, as it was all very spontaneous.
