Biztown

Evelyn got to go to Biztown this week!  It's such a fun field trip!  Ada and I did it with her 6th grade, Sam did a makeshift one during quarantine, and Evelyn and I got to do it together this week.  I was so glad that it was a week I wasn't working.  I didn't trust myself driving on the freeway with my concussion just yet, so Evelyn and I took the frontrunner up and walked from the station to the Gateway mall. It was an adventure.  It was fun to be with Evelyn, but the train lights made me nauseous and hurt my eyes.  Evelyn got to be a teller at the bank and I was the adult in the Library.  Evelyn was in charge of investing in businesses.... so she visited the businesses that she thought were doing a good job and gave them checks towards paying off their loans. 

Evelyn was interviewed by the "KSL" people about the investments that she was making.

She was so cute and she loves everyone.  You could tell that people were genuinely happy to see her.

All of her class left and we stayed to wait for Jeremy to give us a ride.  He had a conference in Salt Lake the same day... different time, but it let out at 2pm.... just like ours.  So it was great timing.

Evelyn had fun figuring out how to play Beethoven's 5th on the musical stairs.  I was glad we decided to take the stairs down instead of the elevator.  Otherwise, we wouldn't have known that they had added musically stairs in their entry way.  So fun.

After we got home, I took a 2-3 hour nap.  I was so dizzy and nauseous!  I'm so glad that this happened after our kids were big enough to kind of do stuff on their own and I can disappear for a couple hours.
