After recovering (sort of) from our trip to KC, we headed off to Park City to spend some time with Chad's family. We started by taking a family picture. (It didn't turn out too bad all things considered!)
Cole much preferred exploring the fallen trees and the stream to posing for pictures!
Ok, so he didn't mind posing when HE wanted to!3 Generations of Gwilliam women. Watch out!
Cole's favorite part of the trip was when we headed to the Park City Mountain Resort. After some initial reservation about the rides, there was no stopping him! He had a great time on everything. Every time he got to the bottom, he wanted to go back up to the top and go again.
The Alpine Coaster was his favorite.
Whew. They made it back down!
But, he didn't mind going down the Alpine Slides either. (Although he didn't really like it when Grandpa and Emily beat them in a race!)
Or when Emily and Chad beat him and Grandpa!
Emily was ok on the big kid rides, but she was happy to spend some time in the Little Miner's Area on the Merry-Go-Round and Airplanes.
Her favorite part though was the suspended trampoline. She could have jumped on it for hours, if they would have let her!
Cole also liked to jump on the tramp.
Addy loved hanging out with her Grandma. Especially when Grandma got the hint that Addy wanted a snow cone!
Emily and Aunt Alise also rode the coaster. We're not sure who screamed the loudest coming down the mountain!
Waiting for the lift up to the top. (Notice my rule following children who have to have their feet exactly on the pictures of the feet on the ground!)
Whew! They made it on!
Rock climbing was another of Emily's favorite activities. She was much better at it than Cole was!
Addy also got to take a little ride on the Merry-Go-Round.
When the big kids decided to go do the Zipline, Cole and Emily settled for playing a little miniature golf to pass the time.
When we got back to where we were staying, there was lots of time to spend in the pool! (I'm not sure where my pool pictures are. Oh well!)
Who needs flotation devices when you have a Dad!
After all of this fun, then we had to go home and collapse on the couch!
What a great vacation! Now it's time to go home and recover from our summer!
