A Day at Hogle Zoo

This last Saturday, Emily and I were able to go to Hogle Zoo in Salt Lake City with some of our friends from hockey. I'm sure that I can say that all of us had a fantastic time!

We tried to get to all of the animals. Bears, birds, monkeys, snakes, elephants, and my personal favorite, the giraffe. Unfortunately, the only animal we didn't get to see was the national animal of Canada...the beaver (two of my friends are Canadian). I'm also so excited that we got some awesome pictures!

The best part about this experience is that it didn't end there. On the way home we made a stop at Players Bench to get Spang some gear for hockey and also a quick stop at Ikea (another friend is Swedish) to get some hot pads and a dish rack for Nicole and Spang's apartment, and also picked up some Swedish food and chocolate (delish). After which, Matz and I made a delicious dinner and we then made the 3rd period of the BYU vs. USU hockey game at the Peaks Ice Arena. Even though BYU lost the game, it was still very fun to hang out with my sister and some of our really good friends.
