Impromptu trip to Hardware Ranch

A couple of months ago, my sister became an Usborne Books rep. I decided to host a Book party for her yesterday. As a big surprise to me, she brought my parents with her. And I am glad she did, not only because I love my parents, but because I made a bunch of food for this party, and only one person showed up.

Seeing as the party was a bit of a bust, we desided to make the trip to Cache Valley worth wild, and went up to Hardware Ranch, which is a wild life conservation center, just up the canyon from my house. In the winter time, elk tend gather there, and you can go our for sleigh ride to see the elk. I was a little girl the last time my family had been there, so my Daddio was pretty excited to go back.

It was really cool up there. The kids loved seeing all the elk up close and personal. I thought the
sleigh ride was great.
