Utah


We spent two weeks in Utah, over Utah and CA/WA spring breaks. It was really fun to see all the cousins, and just six months after we saw them all last! The first week we spent with Bradys and it was a whirlwind week. We were busy busy busy the whole week and did tons of activities. The dads still had to work so they were hit and miss but all the cousins were available to play the whole week. The kids just loved that. Since I am two months late writing this, I can't remember the order but we visited This Is the Place State Park, Classic Skating, Campout, Bountiful Rec Center swimming, Easter activities, and lots of eating!


















































The Purdy week included more Easter activities, Planetarium, lots of games and activities at Grandma and Grandpa Purdys, Classic Skating, and the park.



On Wednesday of this week, Steph, Mom, and Dad watched Brigham and Annabelle while Jon and I took Vanessa and Benson skiing. We were able to rent equipment for Benson to go too! We had to hire an instructor to take him because you have to be certified to use the equipment. Sometime, we want to plan a special trip to get certified and make skiing a family thing. Benson loved the trip and definitely had a need for speed. Vanessa did amazing. She picked it up so quickly I could hardly believe it. She went down the bunny hill three times and was ready for blue runs. By the end of the day, she was doing some squares. Jon said she got a little scared at one point, but put her mind to it and did it. We were so proud of both of them! We had an incredible time!
