Boy's Trip

So Jamie and I decided to make the guy's trip from last year an annual event and got Aaron and Adam a trip to Salt Lake City to go snow boarding for Christmas again. They were so excited. We picked the perfect weekend for them to go and they had such a great time. 

While they were gone we did a lot of fun stuff. 

What is a girl to do when he brother and sister go to school and little brother takes a nap and Mom is busy. Well throw yourself a little party of course. Everyone got a little string cheese and turkey and their very own cup of water. They also read some Christmas books and the Book of Mormon. It was a raging party. :) 

Carson devoured a few books and a few bags of grapes. 

I finally stepped up to be a good Mom to Spenc and took him to story time at the library. (Okay confession, I had promised the littles a trip to the library and when we got there baby story time was just beginning but we still went!)

Spencer loooved it. They had bubbles and singing and he had a smile on his face the whole time. 

At the end they got out all the great baby toys and let the kids loose. 

Day one for Aaron was Brighton. It snowed on them the whole day, he had a blast. 

Check out this snow. 

They stayed all day and even closed it down and did night riding.

On Friday I took the kiddos to the Children's museum. It was probably our most fun trip ever. We did story time and spent lots of time in the water and painting. Spencer is finally big enough to join in on all the fun. 

It was a gorgeous day and we played outside until it closed.

On Aaron's second day he went to Solitude. They had just as much fun as the first day. They were tired and sore but stayed all day. I am so glad they had a great time and enjoyed the powder. 

On Saturday Carson did some babysitting and I enjoyed a nice foggy early morning run. 

Then that night I got out and took the kids to see The Trolls and then we went out to dinner. The movie was a blast but out to dinner was too much. The kids were kind of little monsters. I couldn't wait to get them home and straight to bed! Mom was worn out and ready for Dad to come back into our lives. 

Aaron spent Saturday with his family. He played with Spencer's kids, made a snowman and enjoyed the snow.

Then he celebrated Spencer's birthday with his brothers and they went to an arcade and played games and then had Costa Vida burritos. 

Then on Sunday Daddy came home and we were all happy! He brought me this great t-shirt and I put it on right away and then spent the morning helping Carson organize his pokemon cards.

Then we were off on a family walk. Love this girl and her clothing choices. We were all very happy to have our family all together again.
