Almost immediately, we boarded the "train" that circumnavigates the park and went for a ride. You can see the Wells kids are loving it.
Then Bubby, Bean and the older Wells kids got to ride on a miniature railroad round and round the pond.
While they rode, Babsy, Maggs and I watched from the sidelines.
Jake got to participate in the "pie" eating contest. The pie consist of an aluminum pie pan filled with Cool Whip. Buried under all that goo, there was a plastic fish that participants had to retrieve with their teeth and tongue.
He is poised and ready.
And we are off!
I think he has a little spot without any Cool Whip.
We also got to ride the ponies, which is something that the Chee loves, as you can see.
From the ponies to the petting zoo. Jake and Katie were having a ball. Chee was having more fun jumping the drainage ditch, lined with river stones.
This one is for Booty. Beany is fondling a pigmy goat in his honor.
Of course Jake was just loving being able to touch all the animals. There were even French lop rabbits, a long time favorite of the Bubbs.
Before we went to lunch, we stopped in at the mini-pioneer town, and Bubby let the girls have their photo taken in front of whatever building they chose.
We went to the Brigham Young "forest home" and had our picnic of cheese, bread, and fruit on the lawn. By the time we finished, the parade was over and the people were starting to pack in. We got out just in time.
All in all, this is a fun park, and while it's no Red Butte Gardens, we might go back some time.
