farm country, zoo and ruth's diner...


The past few weeks all Eleanor talks about it is riding the horses and looking at all the other animals at Farm Country so we decided to take him with us. Right when we pull into the parking lot Eleanor starts yelling, "ride horse yeah!" over and over. It's so funny how much this little girl likes animals! So yeah, John got to see Eleanor run around and say hi to all the animals and even got to witness her yell at another kid for getting on "her" horse. Thursday night we decided to go to the zoo with Scott, Michelle and their kids to check out the new carousel. It was "members only" night and we should have known it would be wild and crowded! Personally, I actually really enjoy crowds so I thought it was pretty fun. We knew Eleanor would go crazy over the carousel. She could hardly contain herself while we waiting in line for 10 minutes. She was picking out all the animals she knew and saying hi to them. It's so funny to see how serious she is while riding animals. I could not get her to crack a single smile. I was a little nervous she would freak out when the ride was over, but surprisingly, she didn't. I'm sure she knows we'll be up there plenty in the near future.

After the zoo we headed up the canyon to our all time favorite, Ruth's Diner. The rest of the gang hadn't been there so we thought it would be nice to eat dinner outside. Well, that didn't last too long. It was freezing cold out and they sat us as far from the heaters as they could, so we decided to go inside. Of course the food was delicious and it was nice
hanging out with good company.
