Kangaroo Zoo

Since my friend, Brynn, moved and had twins, we haven't seen much of her, and we've been missing her and her sweet kids! So she and Traci planned a play date for a bunch of us to meet up at Kangaroo Zoo in North Salt Lake. I really wanted to spend time with my friends, but I was hesitant to go when I found out it would be $8 for Emily and $5 for Jonathan, and I didn't want to pay that much and then have one or both of them not like it. I called my friend, Kathy, in St. Louis because I knew she had taken her kids to Kangaroo Zoo when they used to live here. She told me if I went, I would be so glad that I did. And man, was she right! This place was awesome and worth every penny with inflatable bounce houses and slides that the kids went nuts over!
Jon, Emily, and Holden all geared up to go down the slide.
Jon's always been my little monkey. I think he learned to climb when he was 6 months old. ;) He was pretty much in heaven climbing up and down everything that day!Here's Emily just before she climbed to the top of the 3 story slide. She was so brave! I even freaked out when I went down it with Jon!
Salote, Emily, and Sammie all found another slide, a little less intimidating, but still fun.
Wahoo!
What a fun day! We can't wait to go back!

We had Caleb's birthday party there. It's way fun! What day did you go? We almost went on Friday with friends, but decided to wait a few weeks.

Fun! Do think people from my Ward would drive that far if I did that for a playgroup activity? It looks fun! Let me know!

I love those inflatable places; we did group dates at places like that on more than one occasion in high school and they're awesome.

That looks like such a fun place! We took Sydney to one like it in St. George and it was so much fun, totally worth the money! I can't believe that you got such great pictures, all my pictures that I took turned out blurry because the kids never stopped moving!
