Wrapping up our summer vacation....

 The first weekend of August was our last BIG summer trip.  Yay!  It was a fun, busy summer but I am so ready to get and stay on a schedule and be at home.  I am such a home body and traveling so much has made me really home sick.  So yay for summer being over and yay for fall time weather(come soon please!!)

Anyway,  we went up north with our Ramsay family and had such a fun weekend.

It all started with a drive up on Friday.

The boys and I met up with Kris and Danielle in Nephi for a pit stop and a break from sitting in the car. 

We then drove up to northern utah... And I know I'm horrible but I forgot the town we stopped in and the restaurant we ate in (Dan can you help me remember?!?) anyway it was a yummy little ma and pa restaurant with good burgers and fry sauce.  My boys are doing so good in high chairs now that eating out is actually fun again.!  plus they like big people food so feeding them bits and pieces of my food keeps them quiet long enough for me to have some adult conversation. 

After lunch we drove out to The Hogal Zoo and met up with the rest of our family who came up (or down) for the weekend.

It was such a hot afternoon but with full bellies and plenty of water to drink and plenty of people wanting to hold the babies it was a fun night...

That night we all went our separate ways to get some dinner and some shut eye!

We were able to stay with my sister-in-law Shiloh and her family in their camp trailer parked in the Lagoon RV camp grounds.  It was a nice night and the boys had a lot of fun playing outside.  My nephew and niece even made friends with this cute little Korean girl (Leah) who was camping with her family next to us.  She spoke pretty good English and we found out that her dad sells shoes and was selling them in the United states for a few months.  What a crazy life some people live.  The kids especially had fun with Leah's i pad and all the fun games on it:)

Kollin just loves his uncle BJ.

The next morning we hung out and ate breakfast and slowly got ready for the BIG, BIG day waiting for us at Lagoon.

Can I just say EXPENSIVE, especially because you have to pay for babies!!!!  Well I guess you don't HAVE to pay for them but if you wanna take them on any rides you have to pay full price regardless of how many rides and how old they are.  Ugh!!!  I didn't want my boys to just have to sit in the heat all day so we did what we had to do and thankfully we did because it made the day fun for them.

They both went on the Log ride...

Kollin fell asleep in the morning so Kleyton went on the TERRORIDE with me.  We all took turns going on big rides and waiting with the babies and making sure everyone went on what they wanted too.  A couple hours later we all went our separate ways again to eat lunch and change for the water park.. (Sorry, I was AWFUL with my camera a didn't take any pics of the rest of the day :(  )  So we spent a couple hours at the water park which was perfect after such a warm morning and gave everyone a break.  When we were done instead of going back to the trailer for dinner like I thought, we all ended up going on ride after ride and babies were getting hungry and my legs started hurting (because walking around in wet swim shorts is no bueno if you catch my drift....eh!  can I say pain!!)  So while everyone went on a couple rides I didn't really want to go on I found a nice shady grassy spot and fed my boys and my nephew cheesy bread sticks, graham crackers, and Gatorade for dinner..(I know,.. mom of the year award.. lol)  THEY LOVED IT!! 

We all went on a bunch more rides and I bought some nice dry pajama pants.  Kleyton fell asleep because it was getting late but Kollin was loving all the lights and people!  While I went on the 'Wicked' ride (which is my favorite!) my sister in law and mother in law took Kollin on some fun toddler rides..  Cute little guy rode in the baby boat all by himself!  Momma is so proud!!  By that time Kollin was freaking out and I was tired and Shy took them back to the trailer and the rides were about to shut down for the night so off to the RV park I went.  After a break down and tears and then some random, hilarious conversations with BJ and Shy I crashed out for the night.

The next morning was packing and saying our good byes outside everyone else's hotel.

Then instead of driving the 5 hours home I headed north to my parents and spent a couple days.

It was nice to hang out with everyone on my Bawden side of the family too.

On Monday I wanted to go on an adventure because this was my last summer trip and all so My dad and I took my boys and my niece Brittany to the 'Tree house children's museum' in Ogden.  It was AWESOME!!!!  If I was a little kid I could spend hours in there!  Only problem was that it closed at 5 and we got there at 4:15.  So we made a quick trip of it which was just perfect for my boys.

Then we went a couple blocks away to the BEST ice cream shop ever!!  Farrs Ice cream...mmmm my mouth is watering just thinking about it!

That night we went swimming at Crystal Hot springs and relaxed in the warm water....

On our way home I stopped in to see one of my sisters and she took me to a little handy craft shop.  She was carrying her baby so we put mine in her stroller.... they though it was a pretty good time  :)

So there ya have it... our LONG, BUSY, CRAZY last trip of the summer!!

WE hope you all had a great summer~ Love the RAMSAYS!
