Get-Away

We had a great Get-away over Conference weekend. We left early Friday morning and drove to Sandy where we ate at Fudruckers and then spent some time at the Living Aquarium. The boys had fun at lunch and were thrilled to get balloons and play on the arcade games - even though we never put any quarter into the slots! The aquarium was so much fun, and the kids loved it! The exhibits were wonderful, even Ross and I were impressed. That night we went with Ross to his mission reunion, the first he's been to since we've been married. We were able to see both his mission presidents and two people he knew from the district. We finished the night off with a swim. Saturday we swam again and stayed in relaxing as we listened to conference. A trip to temple square and dinner at the Mayan finished off our day. It was so great to spend time away from home with our family. The kids favorite part was the swimming of course and staying at the hotel. One funny story I have to share is about Dallin. After swimming I took Dallin and Reed to get showered and ready for the day. Dallin was ready first so I sent him on his way to get dressed with the clothes I'd laid out for him, it took a little longer to get Reed out of the shower because he was shivering so much and he spent more time in the warm water. Needless to say by the time I was out myself it had been a while. I walked into the room to see my four year old kneeling on the office chair coloring away buck naked. He is simply addicted to coloring and drawing. Of course I had to snap a picture, but it will only be making the baby book!
