We were on the go! The entire week. It was great.
One of the days, I met up with an old friend, and coworker from my Zions Bank days. Aimee. She brought her two little boys, and we had lunch at Sugarhouse Park. I left Cohen at home with Nick, and I am glad I did! The girls were more than I could handle. They wanted nothing to do with the picnic lunch, or even the playground. It was 60 degrees outside,and all they wanted to do was get in the water.
Of course, Elsa, ever my accident-prone child. Fell in. She was soaking wet, and muddy by the time I was ready to leave. Because Cohen wasn't with me, I hadn't bothered to bring any diapers. Elsa's pull-up was falling apart. So, I was scouring my car, trying to find something to use to cover her bum. I found some newborn size diapers in my first aid kit. It's a good thing Elsa is so skinny. I put the diaper on her. It fit. Barely. She looked like a mini-sumo wrestler. It was funny!
Another day, a neighbor had a bounce house set-up. In the afternoon she invited my kids over to play.
Reagan and Elsa LOVED it!
Then, there was the day when I grabbed my (new) neighborhood friend, Karen, and we took our kids to Thanksgiving Point.
Cohen doesn't really love animals. He hated the pony ride! I tried to get him to pet a goat, and he didn't like that one bit!
It was a fun, but very exhausting week!
When the week was over, I was surprisingly sad. In the past, spring break hasn't really even registered on my radar. But this year, Reagan didn't have pre-school all week, or dance class either. It was so relaxing to be able to get ready at our own pace in the morning. It made me realize that I am excited for summer to come! My kids are so fun (most of the time)!

Sorry about the condo being outdated and not what you were expecting. I hate it when that happens. At least you guys had a good vacation in spite of that.
Sorry I meant to put this in the post above.
