Park City Highlights

We went to Park City on the weekend of the 10th. I'm a little late in blogging about it, but I wanted to document. We stayed at the Mountain Side Marriott. Thank you IL for the beautiful room! It was a fabulous weekend filled with playing with the Bradshaws, hot tubbing, checkers, yummy mexican, scavenger hunts, iron chef family, lots of reading, playing games, fuse beads, pumpkin carving, billiards, wii, and a great arcade. Good times.

We didn't win, but We had a lot of fun in the Iron Chef Family competition.  I forgot to take a picture, but I think our creation of graham crackers, Manderin oranges, peanut butter and candy bar shavings turned out pretty well.


Game time with Aunt Sarah!

The hotel had a bookshelf full of books that you could borrow.  I love that Ethan loves to read.

Fun with fuse beads.  The boys actually thought this was really cool and it kept them occupied for at least an hour.

Uncle Zach, master of the Wii.  Zach was able to keep a room full of boys throughly enthralled.

Spencer and I were able to play a couple games of pool.  Spencer totally kicked me bum! Way to go Babe!

The Bradshaw's Pumpkin


Reading books before bed.


Yummy Hot Chocolate after swimming.


I never tried the heated pool because it was FREEZING cold outside and I would settle for nothing less than the toasty warm hot tubs. Spencer tried the pool with the boys but they were soon to join me in the hot tub. On the second night it started snowing while we were swimming.  I didn't get any pictures of it, but it was really beautiful.


The arcade.  Ryan loved the fuse ball table and started to get really good at it.

Ethan playing the original Mario Brothers.  Man did that bring back childhood memories.  

Audrey couldn't get enough of the rice and beans.

They had a huge chess and checker board outside the hotel.  The boys thought that was pretty awesome.

Hanging out on the hotel bed watching good old PBS kids.

The resort was so big we couldn't get it all in one pictures so here is the front.  It really was the most kid friendly place I've ever stayed at.  I'd love to go back!
