Yes, yes it is. We went to This is the Place Monument for the first time ever today. I'd always been under the impression that it was only a place to go sit in old churches (or buildings) and learn about Mormon history (don't get me wrong, I am not dissing it for that reason, it just didn't sound like something that I personally wanted to spend an afternoon doing.) Then, I learned that there are trains, ponies, baby animals, and much, much more. I had a 2/1 coupon, so we went. It was fun, and Isaac loved it. It's amazing that they transported some of those old homes/buildings from rural Utah towns to this monument, and recreated old downtown SLC.
A few highlights from our visit:

| This Pony's name is Misty. When Isaac got off, he said "thanks for the ride, Misty!" Pretty cute. |

Heck, I'm Mormon and I avoided it for years 'cause I thought it sounded boring :-) Turns out . . . so much fun! My kids really love it. We only go like once a year, but my kids love the petting zoo and the pony rides and riding the 'train' around the place. Love the pictures . . . Isaac's such a cutie!
I've never been there. Looks like fun though.
The little lambs are so cute. It is adorable that he thanked "Misty" for the ride. What good manners :)
