Summer '09 Park City Vacation Thursday to Saturday

On Wednesday evening Mya's friend Kennedy left and Danielle (Mya's cousin) took her place as her roommate. They did some fun stuff together like swimming, hand painting, games in the pool, taking rides on the gondola outside of the condo. Oh and bubble baths after swimming. I really wanted them to read but they would have none of that!









On Thursday we decided to go to the Hoggle Zoo. It was a hot day, which made us very happy to return to the Mountains where it was a little bit cooler.













One of the toys the twins got was a little walking toy. Alexa was very excited to start using it!





Saturday, another hot one, even in Park City, was a busy one. Early in the day we went to Park City Mountain Resort to go down the Alpine Slide and Coaster. Danielle, Mya and I did the rides. Mya and Danielle were afraid to go down the slide by themselves, but I made them. You can get an idea of how fast they allowed themselves to go by the picture. Usually the riders behind you don't catch up to you and have to help push you down the slide. The girls did much better on the coaster ride though.
After this us girls went shopping, then Doug went shopping. Guess who took the longest and spent the most. If you don't know me very well then you may not know that I hate to shop, so contrary to popular belief this set of girls did not shop long or buy much.
Back at the condo the Canyons Resort was getting ready for their first Saturday Concert of the summer. Us girls and the babies sat on the lawn ate goodies and listened to music. We had a fun time getting to know the people around us and relaxing on our last evening in Park City as we waited for Doug to join us after his shopping spree.
We had a great time in Park City even with babies and a broken leg. To me, family vacations are a tradition you must keep. It's a bonding time as a family that is usually never forgotten and something to be treasured.
