We chose Utah because my sister who lives there had a baby girl last month. We needed to visit her and meet the baby, so we piggybacked our week of vacation with the family visit.
We stayed in a condo that had a full kitchen so that we could make and eat our own food in. This saved us money and made us feel better as eating out too much can really make you feel sick after a while. We used our saved money for amusement. We had a blast.
· We spent a day in the pool, which was huge and beautiful and had a waterslide. Living where we live, this kind of swimming fun is definitely a treat.
· One day I was sick, so Mike took the bigger boys to Park City, the site of the recent winter Olympic games. They had a blast riding the roller coaster and huge slide. Definitely a first time experience for them.
· A family member who is in the air force took us on the tour of the base. We were able to look inside the cockpit of a fighter jet.
· We went to a dino-park and that was really fun. We just had to make sure the boys understood what the Bible says about creation and that some people dont know or believe what the Bible teaches.
· We rented Jet Skis at the lake. I got the ok from my OB and all but our toddler were able to cruise the lake on the high-powered jet skies. We had such a good time!
Here we are happy to be home putting things back in order. A great break was had by all and we are thankful to have had the luxury.
One unfortunate thing however: we arrived home to find that our kitties have either found another home, gone on vacation themselves or became a meal for the coyotes in our absence. We will miss them for sure.
