Jellyfish, Toads, and Sharks - Oh My!


We went on a little family trip last weekend to Utah and we had so much fun! We went with Rob's brother and his family. We stayed at a great hotel and went swimming. We went to Ikea and Cabela's and to visit Rob's aunt and uncle in Spanish Fork. We also went to the aquarium in Sandy which Ellie just LOVED. She was so enthralled by everything she ran from tank to tank to see all the fish and frogs. We got to pet a sting ray and see sharks, jellysfish, starfish, and an octopus. She loved it so much we had to go through twice :) Now that we're home Ellie keeps asking to "go to da Salt Lake and see da jellyfish." It's so cute. I can't wait till it gets warmer and we can take her to the zoo to see the monkeys and elephants.


I love Ellie's cheeks in this picture - I just want to kiss 'em.
