Utah Trip week 3

Our final week in Utah was a bittersweet week. Anxious to be going back home soon and back to normal life, but sad to be leaving our families and friends again. We were lucky enough to be in Utah the same time that one of the missionaries from our area was coming home. We were able to attend his homecoming and visit with him and his family. Living outside of Utah has had its perks. We've been able to have the missionaries over for dinner and Milan has been able to go on splits with them. I think it's great for our boys to see the missionaries in action and hopefully it gets them excited to go on a mission one day.
Park City is always our favorite part of the vacation because that's when Milan is with us and the fun stuff really begins. We love going to the resort and riding the alpine slide, the mountain roller coaster, and the zip line. My favorite part of coarse is shopping at the outlet stores. I get to go without kids and have a little quiet time.















Milan's family was able to come up a few times to spend some time with us. Grandma is always so wonderful to help with Payton so we can go and enjoy the rides and to swim without her. Maybe by next year she will be a little easier to handle.
















Another fun thing we love to do is go to the Jordanelle Reservoir. Milan's brother brought his boat up and we were able to spend some time with his family and have fun. The boys can't seem to get enough of each other.








To end the trip we drove home over 2 days which seemed to take forever, and we only had one incident. My brand new laptop, which is only a month old, got run over and ruined. No warranty, no insurance. I guess it wouldn't be a memorable trip unless something went wrong, and we definitely will remember this one.
