Vaca.

So we were blessed to share my sister & my parents time share with them this year. So our family vacation was in Park City.

We got to The Canyons Friday evening about an hour before anyone else, so we ended up walking around the grounds and checking out the pools, and all the luxuries.

That night mom and dad were in charge of dinner and I don't think we ate until about 9:30 because of bag being dropped and other unpacking that needed to be done. Although it was late, it was still good.
Melanie had made Lucy and Tierra night gowns and surprised Bridget with one to match! Unfortunatly, Tierra didn't get her picture taken with them.



Saturday morning we were anxious to hit the pool and get a tan... in fact Josh was so excited he cannon balled into the 3' pool making him a cripple all week!



Everyone else besides us were going to spend the day at Heritage Park, but Melanie and Nick's car died on them on the way after hitting a "bump" and wouldn't start up. In fact, they didn't even leave the parking garage! So, everyone just hung out in the pool and played Wii and Rockband.



Melanie was born to Karaoke! and Ryan has such an "angelical voice" at Rockband (according to Josh)


Monday, we went to the Olympic Park where Josh went down the Extreme Zip line with Mandi, Landon and Ryan. Josh was last.



We went down the Silver streak (?) slide. It was pretty "quick" alright! I was really upset that Bridget couldn't ride this one with us.


After the slide, we headed over to the Bobsled track to watch Dad, Landon and Ryan go down 68 miles per hour in 1 minute, 2.78 seconds!





the G-force hurt Ryan's back, and made Dad vomit! What a ride!

Mom and Mandi went to the store and came back with something for Josh...



Tuesday, Me, Josh, Landon and Ryan went to the IMAX to see Transformers while Grandma, Grandpa and Mandi took the kids to Kennacott Copper Mine. (Dad's always wanted to go.) The kids had a great time! After the Movie, they met up with us and we ate at the Myan (and Bridget played in their flowers).


I remember it being SOO much better. But it still was a fun day.

Wednesday Josh, Bridget and I went to Main Street while everyone else went to the Outlets.





The Trolly kept going up and down the road. Bridget and I stuck out our thumbs and bummed a ride... Mike was our driver! My friend from Washington! Bridget got to ring the bell, but I don't think she was real excited about it!



After Main Street, we met back up with everyone at the Park City Mountain Resort to play.
We went through their "maze" that was supposed to take 45 minutes. ...it took us about 1 minute! Mom got our money back!




Josh and I got to each take Bridget down the Alpine Slide. I think she was a little scared at first when I took her down, but when she went with Josh, he said she was saying "WEEE!"

It must have been a long hot day, cause Bridgee came home , stripped and went for the food!



It was a GREAT vacation, thanks to Mom, Dad, Mandi and Ryan, but I think we can all say, "we are glad to be HOME!
