Soldier Hollow Ice Castles
The Ice Castles are back and open at Soldier Hollow in Midway, Utah! My girls were so excited to see the sculptures again this year. This is one destination they look forward to each year. In fact they want to go right when it opens and then again just before they close to see how much taller it has grown. Each day 10,000 icicles are grown each day and placed throughout the ice castles.
The giant ice features are better then ever this year! The artists used an entire acre of land as their ...
Scales and Tails Utah – Things To Do In Utah
There are so many things to do in Utah. After school this past Wednesday I took my girls to Scales and Tails Utah. This was an opportunity to get up close to turtles, alligators, snakes, lizards and more.
The reason we chose Scales and Tails Utah is because it is temporarily included in the Pass of All Passes so we were able to go for free. It was a little tricky finding the entrance. We turned in on the north side of the building when it would have been easier to enter on the south. ...
Funtopia
We had an opportunity with 3 of my Little Chefs to check out Funtopia located in Lehi, Utah. I love discovering new things to do in Utah. My girls had so much fun that the hour went by quicker then they wanted! That is how I know this place was a hit.
Funtopia is located in Lehi just a few blocks south of the roller mills. It is booked by the hour. I would recommend you reserving a spot. You will need to fill out a waiver which may be done ahead of time using their online form. The ...

Ghost Falls Trail
The weather is warming up here and we have been anxious to start hiking. This is something we enjoy doing. My girls like discovering new things and as parents we like getting our kids active. At the beginning of the summer we take a few smaller hikes and then extend the distance as the summer progresses. Ghost Falls Trail has two trail heads. We took the longer trail which is about 3 miles round trip. It took us 2 hours round trip to complete this hike. My 3 year old walked all but 10 minutes! ...

This Is The Place Heritage Park
I know many of us have visited This Is The Place Heritage Park at one point or another. But, have you visited during Baby Animal Season?! Did you know they had a Baby Animal Season? I didn't until just recently when a friend of mine posted a picture of her son holding a baby chicken. I immediately called, asked where she was, and planned a time when I could take my kids. Baby Animal Season is only April 3 - May 23. Obviously the baby animals won't be as little when you go ...
