Salt Lake for the Weekend

Here's a couple of little tidbits that will explain our weekend jaunt to S.L.C.

During tax season, Tony has to work many, many hours and a half day on Saturday too.
His office gives their employees one Saturday (usually the 1st one in March) off.
He has passed all 4 sections of the exam, but 2 have expired.
Unfortunately, they will both expire just after tax season ends unless he can pass them again :(

That being said, we had to venture to the big city in order for him to take a shot at ridding this horrible test from our lives.  Wasn't he so lucky to get to study in a hotel and take an exam on his weekend off!  We felt bad for him, but Sawyer and I got to spend time with Kari, Adam, and Jayci.  Sawyer and Jayci were funny together.  Each one had a hard time sharing with the other.  They played pretty well together overall.

We went to dinner with the Griffee's at Fuddruckers.  It was delicious!  Tony and I had never been there, but seriously I thought their burgers were better than Five Guys (Tony's favorite).  Sawyer enjoyed a HUMONGOUS rice crispy treat for dessert.  Our hotel was awesome, clean, and had an amazing continental breakfast.  We also took Sawyer to Hogle Zoo and ate at a little deli close to the zoo.  It was short and sweet, but we had fun.  Here are some photos to prove it. 

The baby elephant was so cute.  She would roll those balls around with her trunk.  Sawyer liked to do the sign for elephant.

The giraffes were beautiful and Sawyer also liked doing the sign for giraffe.  (We learned lots of the animal signs from Sesame Street one day.)

The classic entrance photo that we always take when we leave the zoo.
