Utah Vacation Day 1

For spring break, we told Alex he could choose a place (within reason of course)where he would like to go for his senior trip.  He chose a ski trip to Utah, so that is what we did.  It was a WONDERFUL vacation.  We fit in everything.  We had two places where we wanted to eat while in Utah:  In-N-Out Burger and Cafe Rio.  We hoped to get his mission call while there, which we did. (More on that later) We hoped to ski, enjoy the hot tub, have some down time, spend time with family, and get some mission shopping done at Mr Mac.  We did it all, and it was SO fun!!  It was a great last vacation together!

We flew into Salt Lake City late Tuesday night and stayed at a hotel in East Salt Lake that night.  The next day, we took our time eating breakfast and lounging around. We stopped at Mr. Mac to get an idea of their prices and what Alex might need.  On our way to the Park City resort, we stopped at In-N-Out Burger for lunch. Below are some pictures of eating at In-N-Out Burger:

Yummy burgers!

And yes, even a rare picture of me!

We made it to the Park City resort!! 
It couldn't have worked out more perfectly!  There was a pool and hot tubs below.  When you walked out the gate from the pool, there was the ski lift RIGHT THERE!  I can't tell you how great it was for our family.  With Micah, we could trade off taking care of Micah while skiing/snowboarding in between.  The breaks were a welcome relief and the convenience couldn't be beat!

Looks like a lot of fun! You guys had a great view from your hotel room. I'm glad you got to go! It's funny that you wanted to eat at In-N-Out Burger because we had one near us when we lived in California, but never got to eat there because they only have burgers and the kids only ate chicken nuggets at that age. Gabby still doesn't eat hamburgers!
