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. ...

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 ...
