Brady got off work a little early Friday afternoon and we drove around for a while pondering what we could do for fun. On the spur of the moment we decided to book a hotel room and drive to Salt Lake for the weekend. We found a great deal on a hotel with a pool and free breakfast in West Valley and never looked back. Saturday morning we went to Hogle Zoo. It was a little chilly in the morning but by noon it was perfect. After the zoo we had lunch in a park downtown, then went back to the hotel for swimming. Then dinner at the Training Table (one of Brady's favorite Utah restaurants), and that night we found a drive-in movie theater close to the hotel so we watched Monsters vs. Aliens. It was the kids' first experience with the drive-in and they loved it! We chose the right day because we drove home in an nasty smowstorm on Sunday. But it was a great weekend and a great way to blow a portion of our tax return!

FUN! How awesome is it that you got a little bit of spring before the ferocious return of winter?? did your kids think the movie was scary? I'm still debating whether to take mine...
That's so fun! I can't believe there is snow on the ground still.... I think you should drive to Salt Lake again this weekend to visit the Risenmays. :) Don't worry we'll be back in a couple weeks - this time to IF....stay tuned for more details on that trip. We'll call you. :)
My favorite is seeing Hannah and Eli holding hands :)
What fun, spontaneous parents! Debbie, you look beautiful.
Wish we could have been there. Good for you for calling the weather "perfect" with snow still on the ground.
What a fun time! You all look so happy; it makes us happy too. Grandma & Grandpa Shipp
Thanks for sharing your pictures!
We want to visit you for REUNION & Reunion.
Grandpa and Grandma Shipp
