Salt Lake Visit


At the end of March Isaac's school was on Spring Break so I decided that I would take the kids back to Salt Lake for a week. We had so much fun playing with cousins and friends. I loved being able to just hang out with Kelly and Laurie. I really miss that!
I also was able to get together with 3 of my friends from high school. It is so fun to see how big the kids get each time we are together. Thanks Jessica for letting us hang out at your place.
Clara and Macey invited Isaac over for his first real sleepover. We all watched Tangled, had some ice cream and let the kids play together. Sarah loved the horse - which is fun to see since that was my horse growing up. Isaac did great till I received a text at 11pm saying they were bringing Isaac back home. I guess their house was "just too dangerous" Okay that is what Isaac told Kelly after he hit his head on the ceiling. That boy cracks me up!

We also had great weather and took advantage of playing with Laurie, Miles and Leah and their fun swingset. Sarah is not a huge fan of swings so she only lasted a short while. But we had fun with all their other toys too. We also made a trip to the zoo, but it was so crowded we didn't stay too long, but we did get a train ride in for the boys.


I was able to see my grandma for a little bit and my great aunt, Lois. It was so nice to see them. We had a wonderful breakfast and I enjoyed talking to them. This is a four generation picture which is wonderful to have!

We also went to the indoor swimming pool which I have really missed while living in Yakima. I love all the fun water toys and the kids loved going down the big slide. Isaac loved going down all by himself after we had to do it with him a couple of times.

Of course we had some down time and hung out with Grandma and Grandpa Oaks for a short while and enjoyed lunch with them. It was fun to see Steve and Annie, Chad, Michelle and their kids too.

Sarah had so much fun playing with Grandpa Love. Every night after I would put her in bed she quietly would climb out of the pack and play and make her way down for some more attention. I know Isaac and Sarah love going to grandma's house because they get spoiled. We had a great time and can't wait for you to come visit us!

It was so nice to see you again so soon! We wish you were here every day, although my housekeeping would be even worse if I had you around to help distract me everyday.

There is a new Michael Jackson dance game out for the Kinect. You going to come try it out with me?
