We have been trying to figure out how we could squeeze in some time with just our children. You know where they can't bring friends or cousins and they are forced to be together without anyone else more interesting to interact with. Anyway, we decided to spend this Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday forcing them to spend time together and we were getting worried about how that would go. They're all old enough now to think that being together with just your parents and siblings is embarrassing and uncool not to mention boring and stupid. Anyway, we went to lunch and a movie and then made floats and sundaes and watched a Redbox at home that together that evening and everyone had a really good time. Then on Tuesday we went to Snowbird and bought their all day activity passes. The mechanical bull was down but we rode the Alpine Slide, Bungy trampoline, Ziprider, and the Tram before we were out of time and energy after we had lunch at Olive Garden. Today we are planning to take the kids to the Salt Lake Temple to do baptisms together and then out to lunch. After that we've exhausted our brief window of time and we'll need to really focus on the house, yard, and business so we can be ready to host Amy's wedding reception this Saturday at our house and open the doors of our business to the public in about 2 weeks. I am so glad we are taking the time. Family should ALWAYS be a priority!!

Good for you guys! Sounds like you had a lot of fun!
Glad you had fun!
That sounds like so much fun. I'm glad everyone actually had fun and didn't think it was lame. I never thought time with my family was lame, but then, I didn't have lots of friends. ha Love ya cutie. I can't believe you met Beth and are now sending Sarah to her for voice lessons. She is one of my very best friends. That is just so funny.
