Summer Trip

This summer for our family trip we decided to go to Utah to visit with family. We boarded the train on June 23rd and arrived on the 24th. It's about a 17 hour ride. The kids love it. They were so excited to be riding the train. The train stops in provo at around 5:30ish in the morning so we spent most of the day resting, recovering from the long ride. That night Ron really wanted to take the kids to Seven Peaks water park. We went just for the last part of the day. The kids loved the wave pool, Kaeryn tried the rope swing, Ron and Jaxen went in the lazy river. I thought for sure that the kids would go on one of the waterslides, but they were as happy as can be in the wave pool. Jaxen was having a hard time at first but eventually he relaxed and started enjoying the water instead of being afraid of it. We were only there for a short time but they had alot of fun and I really enjoyed watching them and trying to get photos( they wouldn't hold still). Maybe next time we're there i'll feel better and will join them in the water.

The next night we met with my family. We had arranged with my mom and dad to have a sleep over party for Kaeryn with her cousins as an early birthday party. We did have pizza and then we went to see Koralee, Mckenna and Claire in their play about Cinderella. It was so cute. I loved it! Since moving out of state I have never been able to see any of my nieces and nephews perform in their various activities. The play was so adorable. Ron took the boys out on a daddy/sons date while I went with Kaeryn to the play. Ron took the boys to see a movie at the movies 8. After the movie and the play Ron and the boys came back to my mom and dads place and we along with all the girls had cake and ice cream. We stayed to visit for awhile. The girls were putting on their dress up shows. We left Kaeryn there for the sleep over and Ron and I and the boys went back to Ron's mom and dad's house( that is where we were staying). Kaeryn stayed most of the next day there, they went to bridal veil falls and played in the water. We took the boys out to dinner at
Los Hermanos. It's a mexican resturant that Ron and I used to go to all the time back in our high school days. We then met Kaeryn and went to visit and play games with Nate and family and jeremiah. It was alot of fun. It's always so good to be with friends.
