We'll make a weekend out of it! or so I thought. We were invited to
Kami's parents home for a fish fry they have every year after her father returns from Alaska - so we headed up for the weekend to spend time with
KK, however it was their 1 year anniversary weekend so they went to the cabin in bear lake. Regardless we still headed up early Saturday morning. Looking over my pictures - I think I forgot to take photo's at pretty much everywhere we went.
We checked in a the hotel and then headed out. However the boys would have been fine had we stayed there and swam all day!
Firsts things first - we cannot go to Logan with out getting cheese! In fact we will drive to Logan with the sole purpose of getting cheese. Now we get to see
KK so that works out even better
Second - Lunch! We were hungry - we got some A&H burgers and
rootbeer and headed over to the park. This park is amazing, super shaded and a nice big playground.
Third -
stahling... we drove around town for a bit for Weston to take a short snooze knowing that he would not stay asleep through the elevator. This drive lead us to 50 lbs of potatoes :)
Preston - he kills me sometimes. He just jumps up on the bed and strikes a pose.
My
Bry, super excited to be in a hotel room.
Weston just keeping up with his brothers
The room was really nice, clean - just the right size, I could not have complained about it at all
When we returned from out
outtings - the boys were excited to go swimming, they were taking their shirts off in the hall.. oh boy! So we ran down to go swimming - again forgot my camera! We swam for about an hour or more - I cannot even recall. Then we took the boys over to
the Fire House for some yummy pizza, I took pictures of that but it must have gotten deleted as they aren't there now :( but we had fun! And to end our day - Aggie Ice Cream!
We had stopped at
Wal-Mart and picked up some treats and pop corn to watch movie that night. The boy s all did pretty well in the same bed -
YaYa was up walking around through most of it.
Bedtime on the other hand was a bit different.
Bryson was fine and all but asleep, Preston didn't want to sleep and was ready to go home, he was scared. And
YaYa would not stay in their bed and so took a crying match to get him to sleep. Once they were all settled though we hunkered in.
The next day after a morning swim we checked out and headed up to Bear Lake to meet Kyle and
Kami for some lunch. This overlook point is my favorite - it's so pretty and the day could not have been nicer. The sun was in the boy's eyes - but it still turned out okay.
Bear Lake - a very beautiful place to look at - but WAY too cold for my likens
Darren and
Bry - giving me his best
cheeser grin
Preston had brought his Bat-Man cap and was in his own world. This is the two
of them showing me their wings!
Daddy and Preston - I have to snap pics quick to get Preston looking at the camera, his focus changes to something next in an instant.
Weston found a bug - this is his bug pose - he is in it quite often
When we met up with
KK they took us over to this resort that
Kami's family has a annual pass to - so we let the boys play on the playground which was a much needed release of energy. The playground was half modern and half - well, what I recall my playgrounds being like. The boys had a ball and didn't want to leave.
Darren, Weston,
Kami, Kyle and
Bryson
My Weston-
YaYa
Darren - stretching his shoulders...
ahhhh
Preston doing the upside down swinging with Daddy, they
were both laughing so hard that Darren had to stop before he dropped him
This was their favorite part of the play ground - they spun and spun and spun on this thing
After that we went to lunch with
KK at this delicious
mexican place - it was super yummy! Again I left my camera in the car.
Kami needed to get home to help her family with the final party stuff so we headed back.
There was still about 2 hours to kill and instead of my kids wrecking the Anderson's home I went back to childhood memories and we drove to this zoo. My oldest brother Kevin went to school at USU and lived here with his family for about 5 years. They lived straight across from a park that had a small zoo there, needless to say the park has changed, the zoo is nicer and new homes are everywhere. But the kids loved going to the zoo and seeing the animals.

Tortus
My Guys
I am starting to really like feet pictures
After the zoo we took the boys to play at the park for a bit before going over to dinner. I think it helped them get some energy off.
We ended our adventure at
Kami's parents home for their Fish Fry they have every year. Her family is so welcoming and wonderful - Kyle
truly got amazing in laws. The food was great and we had such a good time. Thank you Anderson family! This was such a great weekend and a fun family escape from the crazy life of errands and things to do. I can't wait to do this again.
Bryson found his right off the bat
Grandpa Paul and Preston look for his
Preston and his winner 
This is Darren and Paul looking down at the 50 lb one that Darren wanted - they were fight over who should pick it up. Both of them were equally playing "injuries and age"
Weston found one just his size - he was so very proud that he could carry it.
Here are the Guys again - over the 50 lb pumpkin - our nephew Cameron wasn't going to pick it up either... although he finally did. He is a good kid, he'll be going to the Marine Core the end of October.
My sweet hubby
There was a corn maze the boys found - this is Bry running through it
Our barrel of pumpkins
Grandpa and Weston taking the pumpkins over to be weighed! He is such a good helper boy.

Bry and Weston - good buddies

All my boys chasing a chicken that got loose from the coop! I was laughing so hard. Darren finally grabbed it and threw it over the fence.
Didn't turn out light enough - but this is the burnt mountain in Herriman, Darren's parents house was about a mile or so from the base of the mountain.
After the pumpkins we went back to Grandma and Grandpa's for some smores and a camp fire. The boys had a great time roasting and chatting with us. Nothing better then a camp fire.
Everyone around the campfire.
Daddy, Weston and Bryson - Darren makes the best marshmallows!
My boys - man I love these guys.
