Salt Lake Days 1 & 2

Bruce had to work in Salt Lake again this last week so we decided to take the whole family and make a mini vacation out of it. We left on Sunday around 5pm and made it to our hotel shortly after 10pm. We stayed at the Residence Inn @ Marriott. The room was perfect. It had 2 bedrooms with bathrooms in each room. Plus a TV couch area and full kitchen.
Collin and Jordon shared a bed and we brought Sienna's toddlers bed and put it in Bruce and I's room. After getting all settled in we went to bed shortly after 11pm. The kids were up bright and early for our continental breakfast. After breakfast we went swimming in the hotel pool. Put the girls down for a nap and then played some basketball while we waited for Bruce to get off work. We then ventured out to Temple Square (the castle according to Jordon) and toured the area. Went to get some dinner and then went swimming again once we got back to our hotel.






On Tuesday we headed out to Thanksgiving Point for the $2 for Tuesday special. The line to the dinosaur museum was outrageous. So we headed over to the garden area and walked around there. It was so beautiful. After an hour doing that we headed back over to the dinosaur area and the line was still just as long (probably and hour wait). It was getting close to nap time, so I made an executive decision to bag the museum and head back to the hotel. All 3 kids of course were in tears and withing 10 minutes of driving back all 3 were asleep. We headed to Payson, UT around 2:30pm to visit my cousin and his family. They have 2 little girls Jordon and Sienna's age. We stayed there till shortly after 8pm and headed home. Thank you Brian and Heather for letting us hang our at your place and feeding us a delicious dinner! It was so fun to visit with you.
