Was it worth the 12 hour drive?...

12 hours in the car with our two girls is not something I recommend! Tylie did not sleep a wink (which I knew about her and she is better now that she is older to entertain, but Brynn being five months old definitely takes after her sister and doesn't sleep in the car either). So she slept 3o min. at one point and that 3o min. was bliss!! About two hours into the trip Dallas and I wondered what the heck we were doing driving to Utah for the long weekend. It was actually pretty comical as we were driving and Brynn would not stop crying, Tylie had major gas and Dallas wore his stinky gym shoes! I wanted to be dropped off on a curb! Once we got there we actually had a great time!
I love this picture of Tylie because of the curled lip!?
We stayed with my sister in Orem

Visited my Grandma in Salt Lake and took her to her favorite, Olive Garden!

Walked Temple Square

Tylie was not in a picture taking mood!

Then Rachel watched the girls while Dallas and I stayed in Midway for one night and went into Park City. Dallas had to take a picture of the waterfall!

We walked up and down Park City all night ,which we loved with the lights and falling snow. We ate dinner at a Bistro, ate lots of chocolate at the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and went to a movie. It's amazing how much more enjoyable a night is when you are not worrying about paying a babysitter!

Park City
This is the cute little place we stayed at

I really wanted to go snowboarding but we decided to take Tylie sledding instead since she had never been. Snowboarding will have to wait yet another year!

I loved watching Dallas make his falls so dramatic at the end by tumbling over!

Tylie was funny to watch. She biffed it a couple times and got snow all over her face. Sometimes she would just sit there with snow all over and not know what to do.

Rachel brought Samson who apparently collects snowballs all over his fur and by the end they were even bigger than this. He couldn't walk!!

Our family all together for the first time in the snow
I took Brynn and waited in the car where it was warm after a while.



Rachel and her bf Tyson
We got there the night of the "Survivor" party. Tyson is on it for the second time!


We visited the McCuistions on Dallas' side and Tylie was seriously in Heaven playing dress up with the girls! I was in Heaven eating Aunt Pam's cookies :)
Overall, great trip! Just remind me to fly next time.
