Quick Trip

I promised the kids that if they helped spring clean we would take a small trip. After talking about a few places...Vegas, Lava, Utah, Wyoming...We all wanted Vegas but we needed to be in Logan Saturday afternoon and I really was not up for a day trip to Vegas, don't think we haven't done it before!








So we all agreed on SLC. We went to Temple Square and the church Museum. It has been a very long time since our kids have been there, the museum has changed so much it was so cool. Shopping is always on the list my kids love the Gateway and they suggested the Mayan for dinner. It was great fun but the food is awful, and the price was higher than I would have liked, so we paid for entertainment.



We booked two rooms at the LaQinta airport INN. I get fab email offers from them so they are always my first choice. Much to our dismay the pool was being renovated our kids were bummed so we looked for a different hotel. We ended up at the Hilton. Have you ever stayed at a Hilton? Our sheets were at least 600 count. The towels you could wrap around yourself 2 times, and we actually used the hotel shampoo because it was good quality. The bed!!! was to die for I just wanted to stay another night. However we did need to get to Logan. We spent some time shopping where we ran into Steve, Jaime, and Lucas? Are we in Twin Falls? That was fun!








The Dance competition lasted a lot later than we thought it would, we expected to get home by 8pm and did not leave town until 10pm. It was such a fun weekend, but so draining!!! good thing I only work 2 days a week so I have time to recover.

How fun! We love going to Salt Lake and going to Temple square. You can't go wrong there, you will always have fun, and gateway shopping that's always a bonus. I am glad you got to get out and do something besides clean house which is not so fun. Is that one of your girls dancing?

Sounds like a fun trip! I'm glad you had fun! I have a special place in my heart for the SLC temple :). Jaime said you have a team to run bone and back. Is it true? Do you need more people? Jake really wants to do it. Email me...katya418@hotmail.com.

I can't believe that's a quick trip! That would be huge for us!! Our big vacation of the year- haha. Good for your kids to work hard during the break. I don't know how you pull that off, but great job. Kelsey looks great dancing!
