On Friday we drove to Salt Lake and met up with Melissa and her boys at Hogle Zoo. I must give props to all mothers who take on this adventure with kids and no spouse. It's a lot of work and I only have two kids (and one was strapped onto me the whole time). We did have a good time and we were even able to get seats to see the elephant show. After the show we went to TGI Fridays for lunch.

Then on Saturday we spent most of the day outside. We were able to sneak a little bit of shopping in and went to a park. We had great plans of dinner and a movie (Alex was going to babysit for us)...until Owen fell off his chair and put his tooth through his lip. Good thing Katie was there! I didn't know what to do and ended up in tears on the way to the ER while Owen (he was asking me "you okay mom?") and Katie were trying to comfort me. But, once we got to the hospital I was able to gain composure and be the "mom" again. After three hours, two phone calls to Kevin, two stitches, and two Popsicles we were back at Katie's and ready for bed.

Two stitches. He was so brave.

Poor Owen-- he is such a brave boy! It was fun to see you for a few minutes!!
