the view from our window
The day after we returned from Arizona the kids and I headed up to Park City for the week with my family. I had just enough time to wash all our clothes and re-pack! We stayed at the Marriott Summit Watch on Main Street, and had a great view of the lift and the arts festival.
Mom and Dad had a ton of fun things planned, and we were never bored! We did lots of swimming, made crafts with grandma, went on walks, visited the Shoe Tree {and added grandpa's shoes to the bunch}, and had fun at the Maze making sun catchers, funky hats, necklaces, and finger paintings.
We also went to the farmer's market, got some yummy melon, and saw an old friend from Thailand who gave Kensie 2 skirts and me and awesome ring from her shop!
We walked to the park and spent the day digging, swinging, climbing, somersaulting, and having squirt gun fights. Grandpa also taught Kensie how to throw a wicked spiral, and we had our own little football team with Lincoln as the center. Daddy would have been proud!
Danny and Leah came up Wednesday night {after Danny finished taking the bar exam!} and we all spent Thursday having a TON of fun at Park City Mountain Resort.
Grandma and Leah kept the little ones busy on the kiddie rides.....
...while Dad, Danny and I rode the zip line. Super fun, and not long enough!! Then we took Kensie and Lincoln on the Alpine Coaster, which quickly became the favorite ride of the day! Think Wild Mouse through the forest. Our last ride of the day was at dusk, and Kensie said "Mom, I feel like we're in Twilight"! Ha!! It did feel a bit like we were on Edward's back running through the forest....
Next came the Alpine Slide, which seemed weak after the coaster ride. Jackson and I got to the bottom to find Danny and Kensie behind us- bruised, burned, and bloodied! They hit a turn wrong and fell off. Danny, being the good uncle that he is, saved Kensie from the worst of it, though she did have a fat, bloody lip and several scrapes and burns.
We took a trip to the first aid station and they got fixed up. Kensie was scared, but at the end of the day decided to ride it again with Grandpa and conquered her fear!
We also had fun riding the {super slow} lift and doing some mini golfing. Jackson bypassed the whole hitting the ball thing and opted to just drop his ball in the hole.
One of the last things we did was the Legacy Launcher. Danny went first, and impressed us with his jumping skills {or lack of}! He did do a flip, though. Next up were Kensie and Lincoln. Kensie got so high, and tried to do a flip but was too scared. Lincoln was having fun jumping away. I told him to do a back flip and without hesitation he did one! He was a pro and did them over and over, which made Kensie mad!! He was so proud of himself.
A lift ride up the mountain by our place rounded out the perfect day {as well as dinner at Good Thymes bistro. So good!}.
Thanks for a wonderful time!!!
