Saturday Mornings!














Can I just say that I love Saturdays? Not just because that means that usually Mike is home with us, but because our children are so happy. Sometimes we find ourselves just hanging out longer than usual in our jammies playing with the kids. Here are just a few photos that we have taken on Saturday mornings...

Frontrunner Trip!

Last weekend, we decided to take Ethan on the Frontrunner train. He loves anything that has to do with cars, buses, trucks, and trains. So, we thought this would be a cheap and easy way to entertain our two year old.

We invited our good friends to come with us with their kids. It was the neatest experience. We had a blast. We rode the trax train up to the train station and caught Frontrunner. We sat on the top floor of the train and looked out the windows. We took the train all the way up to Ogden. When we arrived there, we kind of just started exploring. We found a trolley train that was free and it takes you around about a three block area; which included the Depot (which is like the Gateway up in Ogden.) We stopped there and had lunch and let the kids play in the arcade of the Fat Cats.

We then took the train home. It took us all day, and the kids were quite exhausted. In fact, all 4 of the kids were asleep on the trax train coming home. It was such a fun day, and we decided we will definitely recommend it and do it again! (Maybe when the weather is better!)

This is Ethan at the Fat Cats arcade. He loves helicopters! So, he just HAD to ride this ride.

Here we are riding the trolley up in Ogden. It was free and the driver was very helpful. We thought this was the most awesome idea. Salt Lake could learn alot from Ogden!

Here are the kids on the Frontrunner! They loved the fact they could color and play while being on a train. The boys spent most of the time looking out the window.
