The Clark Planetarium

We also stopped at the Clark Planetarium on our trip around Salt Lake. We just played around with all of the free little exhibit things and in their gift shop. They have the coolest things!
My mom and Erin found some Alien glasses. Hot!


A huge, revolving globe thing that displayed different things.


This is like a massive gumball machine. I could have watched this all day long!


This is a 3-D gumball machine that operates over your head. Also very cool.


I'm sure we've all seen something like this, the pendulum knocks over a block every 2 mins or so because it sways with the earth or something..

The Living Aquarium



Me and the fam (and Colton's friend Dalton) went and explored Salt Lake a little bit. We went to the living aquarium and saw some awesome sea creatures! The place was a little stinky, but still
pretty cool. I'll have to remember to take my kids there someday!

We touched some slimy sting rays! Its kinda scary to think about the fact that one of these seemingly peacful things killed dear old Steve Irwin. :(



I found Nemo!!


Just a bunch of cool creatures..starfish, tiny octopus thingy, coral, and eel that has cow spots, a spiky fish...



We also got to touch some other smaller little things.


A baby Seahorse!!!! CUTE!!!!!


This Lobster is over 100yrs old. Sick.


These guys were probably the coolest...they had 3 different types of jellyfish: the first ones glowed in the dark almost, the second ones are some pretty big orange ones, and the last ones are upside down ones! Weird!






Ugly fish that was seriously the side of my little sister...well almost haha


They had pumpkins and Halloween decorations in all of the aquariums. So festive!


Frogs are my favorite animal, I dont know why. They are kinda ugly. But this little guy was smiling at me so I had to get a picture.


This fish had the ugliest lips!


Colton and Dalton in the KIDS play area...

HaLlOwEeN PaRtY!

So last year, my roommates and I were KILLER party throwers. We decided that its been a while and that Halloween would be a fun time to have another one. Well...it was fun, just a little under-attended! Here are some of the highlights:
1) I am officially pretty darn good at fake scar making for a first timer!! I could have done a lot better if I'd ACTUALLY beaten her...but that would totally throw the party off I think.


2) We had the most incredible food ever. Seriously people you missed out. Kari and I slaved all day over these cute little treats...well mostly Kari but the Homemade Rootbeer and Homemade Oreo Cookies were all mine :)

3) I was 'Poison Ivy' from Batman! This party was a costume party but only from the neck up...but i totally had green tights on underneath!! Alex was a gangster and Kari was...i dont know but she was beautiful :D My eyelashes were freakin huge. I could barely hold my head up!



4) We had DJ Kurri in da house and all had so much fun dancing!


5) Some random guy from Kari and Alex's ward came and blew up balloon animals for us?? Yeah not sure about that one...


6) We had hot male dancers!! The highlight was probably watching them dance to "Lip Gloss" by Little Mama(?)..anyways they were hilarious. And total cheaters at "Murderer in the Dark."
