Summertime!!!

Saturday we decided to head into Salt Lake and go to the Chalk Art Festival (benefits the Foster Care Foundation) at the Gateway Mall. It was our first year going and we were quite impressed with the artwork. The road that goes through the mall was closed off and that is where the artists drew their pictures. It was just kind of sad to think that the next day cars would be driving all over their hard work.


I am sure you can image how interested Claire was in seeing the chalk art so we decided to head somewhere that Claire would really like...Tracy Aviary.




She loved seeing all the birds and especially feeding the ducks.


My main reason for wanting to go there is because Claire had been asking to see a peacock all week long. Each night we can hear one that lives near our home but we haven't been able to find it. We even went searching for it for Family Home Evening but had no luck. Claire was pretty excited when we found the peacock at the Aviary. However, I think her favorite part of the entire day was the orange snowcone that she got right as we were leaving.

It was a great day!!
