"Pretty" School Fieldtrip



Some of my North Salt Lake friends and I have been doing a Joy School/Preschool (which London has always called "Pretty School") for our kids since the fall, and since February was space month, we decided to take the kids to the Clark Planetarium (at the Gateway) to see the exhibits and see a cute movie called, "The Cardboard Rocket Ship." We ate lunch at the fountains, chased kids up and down the stairs, and I attempted to shield my children from the freezing winds mixed with fountain mist. (Note: again I was hoping for great weather, so my kids were dressed in capris, shorts, sandals, etc. Brilliant, I know, but at least I grabbed some hoodies for all of us on the way out the door.) The kids LOVED the Planetarium! There are so many cute things to see and explore there. During the movie, London kept grabbing my hand and saying, "Mommy, we're moving; we're really moving!" So cute! Thanks for the fun day, girls!

I laughed out loud at Londy in the pic with her friends pouting and then 2 pics down she is so happy in her cute pose. She is such a character! I love her! Sounds like a way fun place!

London is such a doll. She looks so much like you!!! Especially when she's posing. Not that you used to pose like that or anything (or did you?) but she just looks a lot like you right there.
I need to go there. We should all get together and take our kids there this summer. Wouldn't that be a blast?

Isn't it funny how when you live somewhere you never visit the sites (planetarium) and then you think, "Oh yeah, Utah does have some pretty cool things to offer," I sure do miss malls like Gateway and maybe one day we'll make it back to the planetarium. Glad you had a fun time.

Looks like so much fun! I've been wanting to take Daxton there. We went to the one in California and he loved it. He always talks about Jupiter now.I love the posing!
