moochies & liberty park....

Eric wanted to go out on Saturday to explore an area of SLC that we had not been to yet. Truth is I was not really in the mood but didn't want to disappoint him so I agreed to his plan. It ended up being a great day so I am glad I trusted him and went along.

The first stop was Moochie's, another Diner's, Drive-ins and Dives stop. If this place had not been on the show, I am pretty sure I would not have agreed to eat there. We actually didn't get to see the restaurant because they are remodeling. They had tents and tables set-up outside instead. The only things on the menu are a meatball sub and a Philly cheese steak sandwich. It was pretty good. It was fun to eat outside with the kids and they were really busy so there were lots of people watching opportunities. Charlie's favorite part was getting an Orange Crush in the bottle.

The next stop was Liberty Park. This is SLC's largest and most popular park (according to their website). These large beautiful trees were everywhere. It was Cannon's first time on a swing. He loved it!



We hung out in the grass while Charlie played on the playground.


Then we drove around downtown a little bit. The capital building was gorgeous and there were a lot of beautiful buildings and historic homes all around it. These big buffalo were outside the visitor's center. As you can see, Cannon was ready to go home.
Looking forward to much more sight seeing and getting to know more about our new city. The more we see and do here the more we are loving this place.

Cannon update: he did develop a rash on Saturday afternoon so I guess he does in fact have roseola. The rash is pretty mild and his fever has finally broken. He is still pretty irritable but is doing just fine. Here's to a new and hopefully healthy week!
