Antelope Island

We ventured into a very bizarre mountain island positioned in the middle of the Great Salt Lake.  It smelled, well, funky.  But other than that, we had a great time.  We saw lots of bison (they're BIG), all kinds of extremely creepy spiders, and one antelope from afar.  We visited an old farm house -- sort of working for tourists -- with horses and chickens and all kinds of antique stuff.  Lily and Sophie learned to lasso a saw horse.

First day of Kindergarten, Take 1

Lily's first day of kindergarten.  The muffin.  In real big kids' school.  Our Lily!  We know she's been ready for this for years, but it seriously hurts me so see her grow up.

The Hogle Zoo

Leah and the girls visited the zoo again today.  Here the girls are with a massive American flag, uh, um, bald eagle.  <S.Colbert> Sophie!  When you run from our avian symbol of national pride, the terrorists win. </S.Colbert>

Don't let it end!

Summer in Maine wraps up.  One last cook out at Memere and Grampy's with the cousins.  (Curtis, Preston and Levi not featured in this photo).  It's been an awesome summer, now we have to move to Utah for real.
