Vacation, All I Ever Wanted

I think summer is finally starting to show up in Utah. It has been such a cold spring, we are excited to get outside and play!

Caleb took the day off on Friday and we went on a family adventure. I had to run in and meet with a client in the morning, so Caleb packed some oatmeal and took the kids to breakfast at Carl's Jr. (Corbin hates the food there, but LOVES their play place.) Then we all went to the Living Planet Aquarium.




Makelle is getting to the age where she finds things just facinating and will stare and point forever. Corbin is getting to the age where he wants to rush through everything and ran from exhibit to exhibit as quickly as possible. So it was an interesting balance trying to hurry Makelle along while slowing Corbin down and trying to teach them each something new along the way.

After the aquarium we stopped at In-N-Out on the way home, because Caleb can't drive past 106th south without getting one of their yummy hamburgers. Corbin developed a love of french fries dipped in cinnamon applesauce.

When we got home Corbin got to go the the neighborhood Popsicle Party to celebrate the last day of school. He obviously didn't understand what we were celebrating, but enjoyed running around with all the kids and eating popsicles.

Back at home we had a late nap and quick dinner before Caleb and I had to leave for our soccer game. We won. 4-0. It was a fun game, we (meaning primarily Caleb, not I) actually made good passes and set up plays. Much better than the whole team running around in different directions with everyone doing their own thing. The kids got to visit Grandma and Grandpa's house while we played, where they of course got spoiled and had a fun bonfire roasting marshmallows.

It was a long, but fun day. And it is so great to still have the whole weekend left. We love vacation days!

Random comment, I read in a magazine that you cam buy a wallet made of stingray skin for only eighty dollars. That's just what thought of today when I saw the stingray.
