Fun Time Had By All - Most of the Time

Memorable Memorial Day weekend for us, to say the least.  We loved having our little buddies visit.  It turned out to be kinda cold, but Reese especially liked the trains at the Treehouse Museum and would have stayed all day right there had he been making the decisions. 
  Nate enjoyed varied exhibits, and may consider being a bull rider.
 We chanced going to the Alpine Slide in Park City the first day of the season. Nice that it was cool so that not many were there for compitition on the rides.  Jason, Sara, Mel and Oakley rode the ski lift up, then came down the slide with no mishaps.
 Reese and Nate did the kiddie rides. Reese did NOT appreciate flying his own plane.
 but Nate loved it.  Needless to say, Nate used the rest of the kiddie ride tickets by himself.
 The boys loved Crown Burger.  If you eat there for very many meals you obviously have GREAT potential.
 Saturday we attended the air show.  I should have stayed home with the little boys so that everyone could have enjoyed the spectacular airplane stunts, but you can never tell who's going to like it.
 Apparently, Nate would rather be the pilot. He hated the air show and cried the whole time.  He pulled his cap over his head and wouldn't let anyone pull it up.  The crying wasn't muffled in the least by the hat.  It started raining before we got back to the truck and they had to pause the show events, so it was just as well that we had a head start.
So the boys were happy as soon as they got home on the porch, even though it was poring rain.

 Sunday we visited Uncle Wayne and Aunt Delana after church.  The boys liked baby Mary, but especially liked Seth and the amazing toys he has even more.  Monday we took a walk around the neighborhood before hitting Salt Lake City.  The Church History Museum has an interactive area at the back that was a hit.

 So glad they came picture

Because it was Memorial Day, the boys stopped at every flag along the street and Oakley led them in the pledge of Alligence.  Thank you Miss Janet, for teaching him. 
So, a fun time was had by all, most of the time.  Let the summer begin!

It looks so green and beautiful now! Great recap of a fun weekend. It looks like you showed them a fun time. Just don't be too fun or everyone will want to start moving up to Utah.
