Ogden Visit February 2010

The last part in February we ventured to the land of Ogden to make a visit to see my family. Me and the girls ended up staying through the next week and had such a fun time visiting--there is never a dull moment! I love this pic of Mae laying there willey nilley listening to Grandma Barbara read her a story...how cute!

Anytime we are in Ogden we HAVE to make a trip to the mall so that Mae can play on the indoor playground equipment there. Not having a mall in Vernal or anywhere like this, this is a BIG deal to Mae and she takes it very seriously!

WEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

The carousel...

Time to get off the carousel...notice the pout, AND grandma reaching into her purse for more money...can we say spoiled???

P.S. Thanks to whatever mom decided to bring her sick kid toplay on the equipment...a puking kid and a 3 hr car ride home make for a fun time!

Also while we were there, we made a trip down to SLC for what started out to be a visit to the Zoo, but quickly turned into the aquarium with the storm that hit while we were on the road. We had never been there before though and Mae has been obsessed with "Nemo" lately, so it was a good trade!

Even Lu enjoyed looking at the fish and touching the glass

The stingray petting pool...this is where we spent 99.9% of our time, with Mae's hands in the water the whole time.

Great Grandpa Gary and little Lu

What trip to O-Town would be complete without a visit with my AMAZING friends! Since I pretty much have a babysitter anytime I want when we go to Ogden, Me, El-Say, Ho and Aimee got together for a well-needed girls night out.

Can we say "ICE CREAM???"

Tony's Pizza

That's right folks, that is me eating PIZZA and not just any pizza, TONY's pizza...well worth it!

The highlight of the trip was definitly a visit with 102 year-old Great-Great-Grandma Clarke. Lu had never met her before and I was so glad that we were able to take the girls there to see her.

How much do I LOVE this pic??? Lu loves to touch and be touched (to the dismay of her older sis sometimes) and it was sooooo cute to see her reach out and touch her Grandma Clarke-- too sweet!

Five Generations, the 5th generation squared.

We had a GREAT visit to Ogden! WE LOVE ALL OF YOU!!!
