An Unscheduled Visit to Sugarhouse


We drove to SLC after our luncheon with Barb. The drive was blissfully uneventful and we listened to "Not a Penny More", a long time Jeffery Archer favorite. We crashed at Babsy's after a nice burrito dinner and in the morning we had fun visiting with the kids. Lydia was caught enjoying a conversation heart in this photo.

We drove down to the new IHC facility in Murray this morning to see Liza. Theodore Roosevelt Davis Eves was born yesterday. He was 8 lbs. 14 oz. and 23 inches long. He looks just like he should (like Jasper's brother). While we were visiting Mr. Ted, Jasper arrived and was really excited to see his Mom.

Bubby says that Ted is a substantial package, and seems pretty docile. He likes to eat, and didn't seem to mind that Jasper was getting intimately acquainted with him during our visit. Congratulations to Jason and Liza. We also saw a photo of Mike and Melissa's baby Audry. She was born 8 weeks early because Melissa had serious high blood pressure and they were worried about her health. If we had just a little more time we would make the trek out to Saratoga Springs to check on things. Grandma Brenda is in town, and we're sure that all is well in hand.

We had lunch at the OG (probably the worst service and overall experience, ever) and then went across the street to feed the ducks, geese, and gulls in Sugarhouse Park. Before our lunch, I got this photo of Andrew in his winter attire, complete with his Jarjar Binks band aide.

Katie got way into the duck activities and seemed to enjoy herself. As soon as we got out of the car, the livestock all ran to greet us and see what we had brought to eat.

Although I took about a thousand photos, I thought this one of everyone engaged in duck feeding was worth posting.

We all had a good laugh at The Ly. She took a breadstick to feed the fowl, but every time she broke a piece off, it ended up in her mouth. That is why I have titled the above photo "Lydia Feeds the Ducks".
