Memorial Day!

Our first camping trip of the season was cancelled Memorial day weekend. In February we had reserved a spot up Big Cottonwood Canyon at the Spruces with friends (Randal and his Family and Gina and June) so that we could spend Memorial day weekend camping. However due to the hard winter that we had the entire campground was still under 3 to 4 feet of snow plus it had snowed the week prior, so camping was not going to happen. The kids were bummed they were really looking forward to going camping. At the last minute we decided to drive to Logan and stay the night in a hotel and let the kids do some swimming (a mini vacation). On Sunday our friends (Randall and Stephanie Brady) and us headed to Logan. The kids were all excited and couldn't wait to get there. We reserved rooms at the Super 8 just at the edge of town. Once we got there all they want to do was go swimming. So before we went to dinner we head off to the pool. The twins were not sure what to think, this was the first time they had ever been in a pool. Nik quickly adjusted and had fun learning how to swim with daddy. Megan just wanted mommy but she didn't to learn to much as she had a death hold on my neck 80% of the time. Austin had fun splashing around and playing with our friends kids (Destiny and Ethan). We let the kids swim for an hour and decide it was time for dinner. After Dinner all they want to do was go back to the hotel and go swimming again. Here are some picture of the swimming.

Let's go Nik...Chicken fight with Randall and Destini in the deep end


On our way home Monday we decided to stop at Hill Air Force Air Museum. The kids had a lot of fun looking at all the air planes. This was the first time that I had been at the museum. It was cool to walk around and see all the planes and realize how far the technology has come over the years.
