Ute's & Dino's the perfect mix!

Last Friday our family joined the other 40,000+ Utah football fans who lined the streets of downtown Salt Lake City to celebrate the Sugar Bowl victory earlier this month. It was such a great thing to see the community come together in support of the Ute's. We parked at the Gateway shopping center and rode Trax into town. Little Hema really loves to ride the "train". We watched the parade on the corner of 100 south and State street. Then we joined the "sea of Red" as they followed the team to City Hall (400 south) where the Coaches, some players, the Govenor, and the Mayor addressed the crowd. We caught Trax back to Gateway just before it let out to avoid the rush. We grabbed some Brazilian grub at Tucano's before heading over to Energy Solutions Arena for Walking with Dinosaurs. While walking to the Arena little Hema asked where we were going, when we answered he let out the loudest scream of sheer happiness. It caused several people on the street to stop and stare. The show was so cool! If your not familiar with it they have life size realistic looking dinosaurs. Our family's favorite was of course...the T-Rex!

After a day like this...it wasn't just the kids who were exhausted...and sore.
