Fun Weekend with Grandma

A couple of weeks ago my mom had to go to Hooper to a viewing and graveside for her Uncle. She called and asked if the kids and I would like to go with her. I had been wanting to take Dalley somewhere fun so I agreed to go. We headed up on Friday morning and got to Hooper in time for the viewing. After the viewing we headed to Roy to go visit Rowdy. We hadn't seen his family since March so it was fun to visit. Dalley had a good time with the girls. They played in the backyard the whole time we visited. We left Rowdy's house and went to Lehi to spend the night. We got up Saturday morning and went to the Kid's Discovery Garden at Thanksgiving Point. Dalley loved the wading area by the ark. We sat and let him play in it until there were too many kids, then we explored the garden. It was really pretty with flowers everywhere and lots of animals for Dalley to find. After we left the garden we headed to the Harvest Restaurant and had lunch then we went to the Dinosaur museum. Dalley is a big fan of dinosaurs. He calls them dinahorses. He ran from exhibit to exhibit and he was super excited. We also took him to the Physics room and he had a good time playing with all of the displays. After we were through we headed home. It was fun spending a couple of days with my mom. She is an awesome grandma and the kids love her!!On Sunday my mom headed home after church then Dustin and I headed for a drive up the mountain and we saw quite a few deer and elk. We ran into Dustin's cousins who we went camping with a lot last summer and spent a little time at their camp visiting. It was a great weekend with great memories made

I've never been to the discovery gardens at Thanksgiving Point, but it looks like a ton of fun! I'll have to venture over there someday :)
