Utah Trip

We had a great time in Utah, the kids had so much fun together and I really enjoyed time with my siblings.  Ridge and Riley got to go to gymnastics with Natalie and Ethan, they had fun.  We spent an evening visiting Clayton and seeing a property he hopes to buy and build on someday.  And the big event of the week that we were all looking forward to was swimming at the rec center.  It's an awsome pool with kid area, lazy river, and slide.   When we went a few years back Ridge was not used to water and would not go down the slide, but this time he was confident and ready for fun.  He went down the slide on my lap, then said "again", so we went again, then he said "again",, we went down about 7 time in a row then finally played in with the others but went down a dozen more times before the night was through.  After we had a late dinner at Chuckaramas and ate back the calories we burned swimming and more.  The last day of or trip we took a little walk near lagoon, saw some moose, buffalo, and a really cool big tree.  It was sad to say goodbye but we get to see them all in two months for our family reunion. 
After the short flight getting to Utah I was not looking forward to the long 13.5 hour drive home.  However with the company of family it was surprisingly really enjoyable.  I got to visit with my sister the whole time, its pretty scenery, Ridge got to hang with Riley in the back seat, and Ian was a life saver and took care of/entertained Lillian the whole time.  Everyone was well behaved and a lot of fun to be with.
