Trip To Logan

We went up to Logan for a fun weekend get-a-way.  We had my nieces baby blessing on Sunday and we didn't want to have to drive up to Logan super early on Sunday morning, so we made a weekend out of it and stayed the night on Saturday.
Saturday started with the boy's soccer games.  Tyler and Josh both scored goals.  Tyler had like 8 really close attempts that should have been goals, so it was a really fun game to watch.
After the games we came home and packed up the car and headed up towards Logan.  Our first stop was the Pepperidge Farm factory.  They did not have a very good selection, but we did get some Gold Fish crackers in bulk so it wasn't a total bust.
After that we headed to the "Fat Boy" factory where they were celebrating their anniversary and were offering their Fat Boy ice creams for only 5 cents a piece per person.  So we went and got six ice creams for only 35 cents (plus tax).  It was a nice little treat and fun to eat at the ice cream shop.  We also got a nice family picture there.
After that we checked into our hotel.  We got all our bags in our room before heading back out to go to Sam's Club.  We were asked to bring somethings to the baby blessing lunch that we still needed to pick up.
After Sam's we went to Kevin and Betsy's house to let the kids play.  It was our first time at their new home.  Kevin gave me the tour and it is a super nice house.  We are really happy for them.  We were all hungry by now so we headed out to The Pizza Factory.  The food was super good but the kids pretty much just wanted to get back to the hotel so we could go swimming.
ALL the kids just LOVED the pool.  I already knew my three older kids loved pools, but Allie proved to be just the same.  She loved the water and didn't get fussy at all.  We were in the water for a good long time and she seemed pretty happy the whole time.  She liked to take breaks and sit on the wall and then she would lean down and give me big wet kisses.

The kids all did pretty good with either the water wings or the tub around them.  The boys jumped into the pool from all sides.  They loved doing canon balls and seeing how much they could splash.  The other cousins joined us as well (Julie and Kevin's kids).  Julie and Boyd were staying at our same hotel and Kevin came from his house after dinner.  We all had such a fun time and totally wore ourselves out.

After the pool we went back to our room and showered and bathed.  After we were all cleaned and in pajamas's it was definitely bedtime.  Allie went to sleep first but didn't last very long in her port-a-crib.  Then the three kids feel asleep pretty fast after that.  We started them off all in the same bed and they were just so cute snuggling all together.  That didn't last too long into the night because Megan fell out of bed and then came into our bed where we already had Allie.  I was so worried that Megan was going to hit Allie that I put her in my spot and went and slept in the boys bed.  That wasn't much better then my bed with the girls and Tony.  So I think we are going to start needing to find rooms with a pull out sofa for the boys to sleep so that we have more bed room.
The kids woke up fairly early the next morning, as they usually do.  So we got half ready and went down to the lobby for breakfast.  After we dressed and headed to Kevin's church for the blessing.  After sacrament we had a yummy lunch and then drove back home.  It was a really fun weekend with our little family and our extended family and I am glad that we were able to do it!
