Ski Trip

We were able to get back on track with our annual ski trip this weekend! We were all excited for different reasons. Bri couldn't wait to stay in a "No-tel", Jake and I wanted a get away, and Bronson was just a long for the ride. The kids headed out with my parents Friday afternoon. I was nervous about how Little B Man would do traveling without his Mama, but there was NO need to worry. He napped and traveled happy. They picked up GMA and GPA and went to dinner at Chili's. It sounds like Bronson made some messes, but all in all, it was a good outing. Jake, Stac, and I left after work, and made record time. We haven't traveled to the city without kids in a long time, and it really is amazing how much faster everything goes. We got to Salt Lake in time to say hi, and send Grammy, Papa, and Bri on their way to get Del from the airport. While we went to dinner at Zuppa's. I really wish Vernal would get a Zuppa's. We got back to the room visited for awhile and headed to bed. Brilee had a sleepover with Uncle Del and Aunt Stacia. She told them "spooky" stories all night. Bronson fell asleep, and for the first time in FOREVER he slept all night long. (In his life he has slept four nights, and two of them were this trip. I almost wanted to move to Embassy Suites in West Valley... ) We woke up early for breakfast and to send the mighty skiers on their way. We took Bear swimming, and then Grammy, Bri, Bronson, Jake, and I went shopping. We started at Toys-R-Us and then went to Scheels. We spent our whole morning at Scheels. We rode the ferris wheel and went bowling there. It was super fun. After shopping the kids fell asleep so we went to the condo. Bronson stayed asleep during the transfer from car to bed, but Bri woke up. Bronson took a three hour nap, Bri played, and Jake and I went to lunch and Costco. We met back at the hotel for happy hour and more swimming. We finally put the kids to bed, and Grammy stayed with them so we could go to dinner. It was fun, but I felt bad Grammy didn't come too. (The kids appreciated being able to sleep!!!) We went to Texas Road House per Jake's request, and he didn't let us down! After another awesome night we loaded up and headed home. It was a great weekend. Thanks Mom and Dad! Thanks Del and Stac! We love you all!
