Deju Zoo

We went to the zoo again. 

At the beginning, it was cloudy and we had a happy and agreeable kid. 

At the end, it was hot and we had a grumpy and bossy kid. 

And don't let the smiling face, fool you. She was insistant that we ride on the peacock bench, and then mad that it was boring. 

Movies in the Park

This summer we have taken advantage of some free movies in the park. It's a fun activity, and we have really enjoyed going to see the movies. We saw Frozen at the beginning of the summer, and then watched Despicable Me, Monsters University, and Despicable Me 2.  There is often other activities before, and we have had a blast.

Alpine Slide x2

A few weeks ago, Dalan suggested we head to Park City and go in the Alpine Slide. I had never been on it before, and after a quick check that Quinn was tall enough, we were off. It was so fun.

 So fun, in fact, that Dalan took Quinn, my mom, Nana, and my aunt up while Ali and I were in Vegas (more on that in another post). They also had a blast. 

Also while I was in Vegas, Dalan took Quinn to Snowbird to ride the tram. They loved it.  I was not sad to miss this one. The tram makes me a bit nervous. 

Dalan and Jessi

Quinn had a sleepover with Ali and McKay a few weeks ago.  They went to the Lego store, and Quinn got a Little Mermaid set.  I believe McKay also got some new Legos too. They went to Chick Fila for dinner and played at the park. 

Dalan and I went to Chipoltle for dinner, and then went to Mulligans.  We like mini-golf ok, but really like the batting cages. We especially like anytime we get alone. It's hard to imagine that once upon a time all our time was alone. I don't know what we even did with ourselves all the time. Ha, ha!  

A silly comparison. 

Zoo

We love our zoo pass. We are especially loving the new exhibits and the train. We went a few weeks ago, and got a big kick out of a group of monkeys. There was a baby monkey, and two adults. Quinn had a whole commentary about the mom and dad trying to get the baby to listen to them. She even counted backwards (my signature warning) at the monkey-twice. 

Princess Quinn

Quinn is in major princess mode these days. She loves Ariel the most, I would say, but it does depend on the day.  Her Little Mermaid figurines from Disneyland go almost everywhere with us. She also loves her princess "barbies." 

She also loves Rapunzel, Snow White, Cinderella, Elsa, and Anna. She also really loves Alice in Wonderland. Why can't she be a princess too?
