Spring Break

Victor and I decided not to make our Hawaii trip this year. We had planned on taking a different getaway in the fall, but now are not sure if we even want to go on that trip. So spring break came along and we had a list of places to possibly take the kids. Any guesses on where they wanted to go? Yep, the ONLY place they wanted to go was to their Gram and Poppa's!!!! I couldn't just sit in that little town for days so we planned a few days in Park City and SLC as well.

We went down and spent a couple days at Gram and Poppa's and the kids were thrilled to be there. They were even more thrilled to see their little cousin Shelby there to spend the night and play as well. They ran wild!!!

I had to hit the outlets in Park City!!! And Nordstrom's!!! However, I didn't want the trip to be just about Mom's shopping (not that it is all bad ;) ). We met Krista and Rick at Thanksgiving Point and took the kids through the Museum of Ancient Life. Our fun group pictured below.

It was awesome. The boys had a great time. It seemed like we flew through it pretty quick, but the boys are still talking about it. The museum got everyone into the dinosaur spirit. Krista even grew a tail!
Mason and Hannah just hanging out.

It seems like forever ago I saw this little taquieria on Dinners, Drive-Inns, and Dives called Lone Star Taquieria. My mouth has been watering for it ever since! We got our friends Casey and Akiko on board to try it out with us. Victor had a burrito that was bigger than my thigh, it was yummy! I love trying new places.

I must say, the highlight of the kid's little trip was the pool. Krista, Rick, Casey, Akiko, and their kids all came to our hotel to play in the water with us. The kids were laughing and having a blast! Zack is very cautious, but Mason and Conner have turned out to be quite the little fish. We had to keep a good eye on Mace, he would just run and jump in whether someone was there catch him or not. I was so mad my battery in my camera died! We topped the pool off with rounds of ice cream- a pool + ice cream= fun for everyone!

The boys were also able do some shooting with Poppa and take part in Gram's Easter Egg Hunt! We don't normally make the trip down for Easter and Gram mails them a fun Easter package. My Mom and Dad are the best. They were so excited to gather eggs with all their cousins this year. It snowed, so we had the egg hunt in the basement.

When we arrived home Conner said, "Oh man, we are home. When are we going back." And Zack starts to cry, "No want to go to our house!!!! Want to go to Poppa's house!" And then Mason started doing the same!

Although it wasn't our Hawaii trip, I think it is safe to say the boys had a blast. We definitely enjoyed our time with friends and family (and shopping! ;) ) I hope everyone had a Happy Easter!
