R and R Trip!

Great Hotel, Fun things, Room Service, Restaurants, and lots of time together!
We went Salt Lake and stayed at the Grand America for our R and R benefit from Sinclair. It is so nice to have room service, a beautiful room, and such great time with my family.

We left on Friday morning and headed to go to the Aquarium in Lehi. The kids were so excited! We didn't tell Emma until we got there. She was so happy and excited!


We didn't love this Aquarium as much as we did in Denver but the kids were excited. Jakob was so interested in everything. The shark tank was the best. They even had these cool sea turtles swimming around in it 














After the aquarium we drove to the hotel and went to dinner. We discovered Jakob in a really nice restaurant is a little tough. He just did not want to sit still that long so we took turns taking him out. 

The next day we ran some errands in the morning. We went to lunch at Little America and ate outside. It was beautiful and so fun! Then in the afternoon we went downtown to temple square and Deseret Book.












That night we opted for room service! The best thing ever! So nice to let Jakob just run around and not have to worry about him. 



After dinner we went swimming! Beautiful evening, beautiful pool and a little chilly. My favorite part was the warm hot tub!


They were being alligators!


Bed time! So nice!


The next morning we were headed home when we learned that our best friends the Nessens were in Salt Lake too! We met them at Heritage Park and then went to lunch. Also, before we left we took a little tour of the gardens at the Grand America and took some cute pictures.

Tooth Fairy

I also forgot to blog about when Emma lost her first tooth. She left it under her pillow and the tooth fairy left her a nice letter and a dollar bill! This happened in July.





She has now lost both bottom front teeth. 

Sinclair Picnic

I totally missed blogging about the Sinclair Picnic in July. We had a good time. Emma loves all of the fun activities for kids. She did the bouncy house and rock wall. Daddy tried the rock wall too. We had lunch and visited with friends. 








The best thing that happened that day was Emma won a bike! Sinclair does lots of drawings and they give away 6 kids bikes. She won this and the helmet. She was soooooo excited! She wanted it so bad! It was definitely a little tender mercy with the rough summer we have had.
