Quick Trip To The UT

This is how Eric's schedule has been lately: Go out of town for 3 days, come home for 12 hours, go out of town for 3 days, come home for 12 hours, repeat.....

So when I heard he was going to be going to Logan (my hometown!) for 4 days, the kids and I decided to pack up and go with him. It was a good opportunity to spend time with Eric, even if it was just in the car, and while sleeping, plus it was also a great opportunity to visit family and friends!

Our first adventure was a trip to Willow Park "Zoo." Which truthfully isn't much of a zoo, but still is nostalgic for me.







Sade did some rolling:





When I travel to Logan I like to spend as much time as possible outside. But this trip was a bit chilly so we did a few more indoor activities, one of which was roller skating:



Sade refused any help and fell down at least 200 times, but got up happy each time. Her stubbornness and independence sometimes serves her very well.








That night I had dinner with Kate, my bestest friend from high school. And still one of my bestest friends. Before leaving for Utah I had found this picture that we had taken in what I believe was our Junior year of high school:



So I convinced her to try and recreate it. Our 2 attempts:




Successful?

The kids and I spent our last day visiting our favorite oldies: My Grandma (age 91) and Eric's Grandpa (age 96). First we headed up to Idaho to see my Grandma:





She gave my kids money to buy candy at the store next door, which thrilled Sadie to the bone. She was literally jumping with excitement. That girl is a candy lover:



Then it was our turn to visit Grandpa. He quite enjoyed Megan's boots:






The next morning we packed up and headed home. And then the morning after that, Eric left town again! Tis the life.
