Labor Day Weekend


We started the Labor Day weekend off by joining our friends Sarah & Dylan, Kristin & Gracie and Angela, Jacob & Logan at the Utah Children's Museum. Landon loved playing in the water exhibit and kept running back to it every chance he got. Lucas is just happy to get to hang out with his friends at any given opportunity.





After hanging out at the museum for a couple of hours and eating lunch it was time to head home to pick up Steve and head up to Park City where we were planning to spend part of the extended weekend. We had a two bedroom suite at the Grand Summit Lodge at The Canyons Resort in Park City that we shared with the Armstrong family for two nights. After a yummy dinner made by Sarah we headed down to the pool to let the kiddos exert some energy. Lucas and Landon were so excited to be away from home and to be having a sleep-over with friends.

Saturday Sarah and I hung out with the kids walking around the resort, shopping and riding the Gondola while Steve and Matt rode in their mountain bike race.
The guys decided to team up and each ride half of the 75 mile race with Matt riding the first leg of the race and Steve the second leg. They were both pretty exhausted at the end and we were so proud of them for even finishing what was said to be a very difficult course.

Saturday evening we all hung out with some other friends in the Resort Village for the Summer Concert Series. The kids loved dancing to the live bands and running around playing as the sun went down. The later it got it was comforting to know that we just had a short walk to our cozy room. Landon on the other hand decided to catch a little shut eye while still at the concert.


Sunday morning was filled with more swimming, a trip to the Park Silly Sunday Market, lunch and then home to catch up on some much needed sleep.
Monday we spent as a family just hanging out, relaxing and being silly. What a wonderful weekend we had. Now it's time to start getting ready for back to school. For the boys - summer is officially over. And as Lucas has said "I will miss you summer". Farewell til next year.......
