Bird Festival . 05.19.2012

On Saturday, we went to the Great Salt Lake Bird Festival.  We started out with the Home Depot "Build a Birdhouse" booth.  Ryder had SO MUCH fun building his birdhouse, with Patrick's help of course.  Harvick and Jarrett barely took their eyes off of Ryder as he hammered away!

We walked around to see the handful of birds brought to the festival by Ogden Nature Center, Hogle Zoo, and the Tracy Aviary.  Ryder especially liked the owl, Chitters, from the Ogden Nature Center - although, there are no pictures of him.  We purchased a photograph of the owl from one of the vendors, and have framed it in the hall by the boys' room.

After participating in a few of the activities (above are the bean bag toss, and the binoculars Ryder made!), we left the Bird Festival, and ate lunch at a local park.  The boys absolutely love eating outside, and Ryder had a blast playing on the playset once he was finished!

It was such a fun day.  Simple.  Free.  FUN!
