Vacation - Day 5 SLC

Outside Temple Square in SLC

On our fifth day, we headed from ID down to UT. Our first stop was to Temple Square in downtown. We toured the conference center, saw the organist practice and walked around the visitor center.

After that we headed over to Heritage Park by Emmigration Canyon. What a fun place. I wish we had known how fun it was, because we would have got there a couple of hours sooner to do everything!! The park has a lot of original homestead and replications of how Salt Lake Valley was when the pioneers lived there. The girls had fun participating in various pioneer activities and chores. We also were blessed to have the Evans family (previously lived in PA) join us for the fun.

After our venture in Heritage Park, we headed down to Alpine to enjoy dinner and playtime with the Nitz family (also formerly of PA). The girls had a blast running around the yard with their four children. Eliza and Aislyn were so cute playing Polly Pockets in the bedroom closet. The adults were definitely not allowed to enter their space. It was so much fun to catch up on old times. Thank you Nitz for everything.
