Family Vacation

We took a 5-Day vacation as a family.  Beau took the time off work and we enjoyed some much needed time together.

We stayed relatively close to home and went to Midway, Utah.  It was beautiful and the weather was so perfect (80's every day).  It was perfect for our little family.  We were able to pack all of the baby gear and we were lucky enough to stay in a little home for the week.  That meant that the girls each had their own room (which allowed for proper naps and sleeping times), we had a kitchen to cook in, and plenty of room to roam.

This is what it looked like right below the vacation home.
I took this picture on a run one morning.
We tried to do something fun each day.

We rode a real train (Heber Valley Railroad).
Evie loves trains, so this was definitely a highlight.

We went to Cascade Springs.  A beautiful place found in the mountains.

We looked for wildlife and found fish, ducks, and birds.

We had a picnic lunch there too.
We did a lot of swimming at the HOA pool.  The girls loved this!

We went on plenty of walks with the girls and Evie loved riding scooters together.

Since we were close enough to home, we also had some visitors.
Here's a great ping-pong match between Beau/Evie and Amber/Joel.

Chance & Jamie battle it out at Air Hockey.

Mom & Norm also had a close match with Air Hockey.  Go Mom!
Evie had tons of fun with cousin HaLee. 

Besides all that, we also had fun eating out, going for ice cream at night, and we even took a tour at a local cheese factory.

It was so nice to have some fun quality time together as a family.  It's hard to get time like that between Beau's job and the farm so we certainly relished it.  Beau REALLY had a hard time going back to work the following week. . . . and his three girls missed him like crazy when he did.
