The week before Lucas started school, I wanted to do something fun with him every day, kind of like a last hurrah before school started. The girls love buses and Trax, so we decided that we would use only public transportation that day.
We started out with riding the bus from IMC down State Street to the Government Center. When we arrived there, we got off the bus and went to visit Grandpa Jacobs at work. After our fun little visit, we hopped back on the bus and rode downtown to City Creek. Once we got to City Creek, we ate lunch in the food court.
After the food court, we let the kids play in the dinosaur play area. They were all in heaven, especially Lucas. They could have played for hours. It was so nice to just sit and chat with my Mom and watch the kids have so much fun.
We then walked around City Creek. We went to the Disney store first and each child got to pick something from there. Lucas chose a Spiderman school kit, Emrie got a Rapunzel doll and Eva got a Lotso bear from Toy Story 3. While walking out of Nordstrom, Emrie had the tantrum of all tantrums. Oh boy, was it embarrassing! She wanted to push the stroller and I wanted her to ride in it. She was still screaming when we tried to take this picture.
For our ride home, we hoped on Trax. We decided to take the long way home. We rode all the way out to Daybreak and back to the Fashion Place Mall stop. We got off, got back on a train heading to the South Towne stop and then came back to our stop at IMC. Riding the public transportation was not only fun, but it was quite the experience, to say the least. It was such a fun filled day! Thanks for coming with us Grandma!
