Logan Trip

We got to go to Logan this past week. We got there Tuesday around lunch and met Katherine and my Mom for Lunch at Chick-fil-a. After lunch we played at my parents house. Casey left for a couple of hours to help David on his house. Peter got to open his birthday presents from my family. Aunt Katherine got him some Pete the cat books and the movie Planes, My parents got him Police Lego's, and Anica, David, and Elliot gave him a baseball glove / ball. (Thank you everyone he loves them!)
Wednesday Casey worked for half a day on Davids house. We had a relaxed morning just playing at the house. Wednesday afternoon we decided to go for a hike up Logan Canyon. I wanted to hit up the Wind Caves. Unfortunately my recollection of how difficult the hike is was fuzzy. The hike is steep uphill for 1.8 miles both ways. We probably made it about a mile winding our way up a hot steep trail before we called it quits for the day. We ended our day by cooling off at David and Anica's apartment pool, and enjoying some Pizza.


 Thursday Casey was off helping my Dad at work. We took my Mom to her eye appointment and discovered Walmart had the Disney mini figure Lego's we've been trying to get for over a month. So I spent over an hour fingering packages trying to figure out which character was in which mystery bag. The kids were elated with the results and only had a couple of mishap buys (Thanks to two kids constantly grabbing bags from my hands and moving my piles around : / After lunch we went and visited with Nana for a few hours. The kids got out her neat retro toys and we got to catch up and enjoy the afternoon there. Nana came over for dinner and we had some fireworks at the end of the driveway to top off the evening.


Friday morning we took a mid-morning snack out to the boys working. The kids got to check out the job site, smooth some wet cement, and drive in the backhoe for a bit. After lunch we all headed out to Cub River for a hike. It was a beautiful hike (much better than our Wednesday attempt ; ).  On our way back we stopped at Peperage farm for some discount goodies. We ate at Juniper Take out for dinner. Uncle Tony happened to be there as well and bought the kids a cookie. They were overjoyed with their cookies. Later we headed over to watch the fireworks. The kids had fun with glow sticks while we waited for the show. The fireworks were amazing. Kendal got scared from the noise, and since we were very close thought the fireworks would come at us. Other than her nervous ramblings it was a great show.









Saturday the kids slept in and we had an easy morning at my parents. We headed out for a couple of errands in town. After lunch we took shakes to the boys at the job site. When we left there we got ourselves some delicious snow cones. We had a yummy dinner and left to come home Saturday evening.
