Our Utah Trip

 We arrived in Utah for a Holiday visit late Christmas Eve. Christmas morning we woke up and went to church then came back to open presents with cousins. Atlas loved my mom's music boxes

...and getting presents.


We went to Zoo Lights with my family and it was really fun.


Nick and I especially loved this one of the old drinking fountain.



This is Atlas's favorite slide in the world. He could go on it forever. You have to pry him away from it when it is time to go home.

We went to Boondocks with Nick's family.



This was his favorite game, a Batman whack-a-mole.

He got lost in the top of the play place and adults are not allowed in. I tried to coach him from the bottom on how to get down, but he wasn't listening. Fortunately a cute little girl saw that he was in distress and helped him find his way down.

 He also got to play with his favorite friend, Quinn. They had such a good time together. I wish I would have got some footage of them dancing with this repetitive keyboard beat Atlas kept turning on.

We were also in town for Nick's birthday, so we threw a little party so that he could see some of his friends.

All he wanted to do was have a dance party. We watched a bad movie, took an intermission to dance, and then finished the movie. It was great to see everyone and their sweet dance moves.


After most everyone left Nick, Jaxon, Meg and Jace tried to dance like Beyonce.

And Nick's mom made her famous baked Alaska.

We had a great time and it was really nice to be back around family and friends, even if it was for a short while. I can't wait until we can come back again.
