the happiest place on earth . . . or at least in utah

On Friday, we went with Papa to the Children's Museum in SLC. Seriously, this place is AMAZING - the girls had SO much fun. The main part is a mini town for kids to play in. There's a house, a construction site, a grocery store, and a farm. . . among other things. Everything is kid size and you can play with it all. Malia was in HEAVEN . . . and the whole time I had to fight the urge to take her from what she was doing to go see and play with something else - there were just so many cool things to do!!


Malia played in this kitchen forever. She baked bread, washed dishes and went back and forth from the table to the fridge - totally in her own little world the whole time.

This was Kina's favorite thing - the water works. Nope, she didn't wear the water-proof aprons and yup, she got SOAKED! ha ha

After eating everything in the kitchen, Malia went to the grocery store to restock the fridge, I guess. ha ha. She even got to be her own checker.

Kina loved her teeter-totter and they BOTH loved the one person police car. . . at the same time.

On the roof, they had a life flight helicopter complete with moving parts and sound effects. The last time we were in a helicopter like this was when I was in labor with Kina! Memories!! Goodness, we've come a long way!

I can't say enough about this place. If you have kids you HAVE to go. It is so much fun. Only thing is it's slightly expensive - $8.50 a person including kids 2 and up - but if you spend a whole day there I think it's worth it. We could only tear Malia away when she got too hungry to play anymore. After several hours she finally came up to me and said, "Hot dog, mommy?" ha ha. Definitely the happiest place in Utah!
