We HAD planned on going up the the cabin the whole week between Christmas and New Years- but unfortunately there isn't much snow up there. Only about a foot. (Considering usually they get between 4-5 feet of snow- a foot isn't much!) So instead we decided to take a little mini-vacation to Salt Lake City. Pam, the boys and I headed out Wednesday morning- YES- in the snowstorm! Our first stop was the Planetarium. We loved the exhibits, and watched a dome movie about the Universe. 
Roo and his "lellow scarf"- he got this for Christmas from Aunt Trish- and LOVES it and wears it everywhere. He forgets his shoes, and coat- but he remembers his scarf!
Then we ran a few errands and made our way to the Hotel. A while back when we were driving through SLC, we saw this cool hotel that had a water slide that came out the side of the building and went back in. So we searched online and Found it! I only got a couple of pics at the pool- I need to get the rest from Pam. I wasn't so sure about taking my camera by the swimming pool. Roo loved the little water park, and the big boys loved the slide. It was crowded, and a bit more expensive, but we loved it.
Thursday morning we got up and headed for the Aquarium. It was fun. We especially loved the octopus, electric eels, and the caiman.

wow that's crazy that's all the snow at your cabin!!! Especially for the amount around here! We were mostly sick that week/weekend and ended up pretty much staying home..fun, fun!!
looks like fun!...where do you get your creative fun ideas? oh also...speaking of fun ideas..hayden wants to know now that we can go to the Dinosaur park "whenever" he wants to know when we are going with you guys :)
WHERE is that hotel with the slide? I saw a glimpse of it on our way down to my grandma's in DEC. and thought that we need to go there next time (when we have our SLC mini vaca!). I had forgotten about the planetarium. I used to love that place.
The hotel is right by the E center- Holliday Inn Express- it's right off of I-215. It was great!
Everytime we drive by that hotel, I say to Quinn that we need to stay there sometime because it looks so fun! Maybe we'll have to copy you and do it!
