Vacation Report

Well, I thought that it had been over a week, then I should probably tell you all about our little Stay-cation/vacation. We started out the week at home. Jared took the whole week off of work, and Cody was out of school for assesment testing. Mommy brain is setting in early, and I can't remember what we did on Monday, other than the boys spent the night at grandmas house. *oops* On Tuesday, we took the family boat out to the lake. Jared's parents came along, and we had a lot of fun. That evening we went camping out in Snow Canyon State Park. We had hot dogs and smores for dinner, and slept in a tent. We had some yummy eggs and bacon cooked over a fire for breakfast.

On Wednesday I did a lot of laundry, and we packed our bags and the van. Thurdsay morning, we headed to Salt Lake City. I met up with some of my awesome online friends in Ogden, and let the kiddos run wild. :) They had a blast.

Friday was spent at Utah's Hogle Zoo. We were pretty much there all day. We took a little break for lunch and a quick siesta, and then we went back to the zoo until they closed, and we left for dinner and bed.

Saturday we went to Discovery Gateway. It is a children's museum in SLC, and it is FANTASTIC!!!! We were there almost all day. We ate lunch in the mall courtyard, and went back to the museum. It is pretty pricey, but we found some BOGO coupons online, and someone in line ahead of us were gracious enough to give us 2 free tickets that they didn't need. In the end, we only had to buy one ticket!

On Sunday we went to my niece's baby blessing, and that was the whole reason we went to Salt Lake in the first place. :) After the blessing, we hung out at my sister's house for a bit, and then headed home.

Then Monday(Labor Day) was spent doing laundry again, and just vegging out before our lives had to start again.
