Visit to Utah

Last week was a busy week and flew by. Tuesday and Wednesday, I got to spend in Billings with Christian while he attended some meetings. Grandma Foulger came and stayed with the boys so that we could spend the night. Thursday, I got the boys out of school early and we headed to Logan to visit my sister over the long weekend (the kids didn't have school on Friday). We got there around 8:30 and the boys were so excited to finally be there!

Landon decided to use the toy he got in his lunch as a nose ring.

Travis chose to have Panda Express for lunch. Carson gave it a thumbs up since he had a better experience than the last time we went to one (where he locked himself in the bathroom and he/no one could get it open because it was broke and they had to call the fire department to come break him out)

We decided that we would shop Friday, in hope that it wouldn't be as busy as a Saturday. We drove down to TaiPan and shopped there and then made our way to Farmington where we hit up a bunch of stores there. We grabbed some Nielson's ice cream on our way home and sat around the rest of the night and ordered pizza for dinner. 

We stopped to let the boys play at play place at the outdoor mall and had to snap a picture of them in front of the fountain.



Love hanging out with my mom and sister!

We bribed the boys and told them that if they were good while we were shopping, we would get to go and do something fun. So, we got up Saturday and got ready and then headed to Jump Zone. It's a huge building filled with all sorts of trampolines. The boys LOVED it! After an hour of play, we stopped by one more store and then had 5 Guys burgers for lunch...delicious! We went back to Megan's house and the two younger boys took some much needed naps. Megan and I crafted (with the help of Carson). While we were crafting, Carson and my mom went to run some errands around town. We made some cute Halloween signs to go outside. They are so fun! We made reservations to eat at Kabuki for dinner that night. They make the food right in front of you and it's so yummy! After dinner, we went back and watched Hocus Pocus before it was bed time.

 

Ready to play! When we first got there, it wasn't super busy, but got busier and busier the longer we were there.

Landon really wanted to do the rope swing, but was too chicken at first. By the time we left, he was able to do it all on his own.

Climbing the rock wall. Carson thought this one was really fun because when you got to the top, you just let go and land in the pit, but you went way down into the pit and it was hard to get out.

The only bad thing (but good thing) about this place is that the little guys weren't allowed to go in the main area (where the big boys were) and the big kids couldn't come into the little area, so we had to shuffle back and forth between the two areas to watch them and couldn't just watch from one spot. But, it was so nice for the little kids to not have to worry about getting trampled by a big kid.

Travis catching some nice air!

Megan and I crafting away. Carson helped paint the orange arrow and then decided to go with grandma to run errands.

We had dinner at Kabuki which is a Japanese Grill place where they cook your food right in front of you. The boys thought it was really cool! It was quite entertaining and yummy too!

Our group!

Sunday, we left Logan around 9:30 and headed home. This trip was a great little get away for the weekend. Travis said we should go back this week since we don't have school on Friday again!

While we were gone, they came and installed our bathroom vanity. I'm in love with it. They still have to come and put up the framed mirror and another tall cabinet. The plumber came and finished hooking it all up and fixed our water situation for the sink and toilet! We are hoping to get our carpet installed this week. The pad for it is down in the basement, so we are a step closer!
