Fall Break

Lucas started his fall break on Wednesday when he got out of school early. After school we drove up to the Canyons Resort outside Park City where we met Sarah, Sean, Gracie and Isabel Armstrong at the Grand Summit Hotel that they were staying at for the night. They had invited us up to go swimming with them.
The pool was nice and warm but with the little breeze coming off the mountain, any part of our body not in the pool got a little bit chilly. The kids did not seem to notice as much as the two moms did. :) burrrrr. Even little Isabel did not seem to mind the cooler air, as she loved splashing and playing in the pool.
Lucas and Landon had so much fun swimming with their best buds and may have just stayed in there all night if they had a choice. Unfortunately for them I did make them get out so we could get dressed and head home to have dinner with Steve.
Thursday we woke up and played board games before our little friend Danee got dropped off for the day. We watched her earlier in the week as well but before that it had been July since we had even seen her. Lucas has been asking to see her which was pretty cute. He decided he would help me watch her or so he said. He did help put her shoes on when we went to the park and helped her in and out of her seat belt. That counts as helping right? We spent the afternoon at the park playing soccer and watching high school kids play Quidditch, you know the game Harry Potter plays while flying around on a broom. Yeah I had no idea people really played this!! Of course they were not flying but they were running around on their brooms. Speaking of brooms.....
Thursday night I met up with some friends at Inferno for our annual Witches Night Out. The margaritas were super yummy and so were the steak nachos that I shared with my friend Jessenia.
It was weird and a little sad to have some of our friends not present for the evening but we still managed to have a fun night. There were lots of new faces this year as well, including my friend Nicole and her guest Jenny. Once the DJ started at 10 pm we were able to get out on the dance floor and bust a move before heading home for the night.
Friday morning Lucas had his little friend Parker from school come over and play. They have been wanting to play for some time now and so Lucas was so excited to have him over. At lunchtime we picked up grandma Judy and went to lunch at Chilis and got to see Uncle Fris (that's how Landon says it). We did not have any plans at all for the remainder of the weekend so we just hung out around the house playing soccer, football and board games. The boys and I painted pumpkins and did crafts while Steve began winterizing the house. I'm sad to see Lucas head back to school but I'm excited for the coming week filled with Halloween fun.
