Park City

We decided one Saturday to head up to Park City to check things out before the weather got colder.  It was a beautiful drive on the way up.  The first stop was the Olympic Training facility where the Winter Olympics were held in 2002.  We sat on the hillside for a little while and watched the ski jumpers soar off the jumps into the pool below.  Not sure I could ever do it, but it was fun to watch and cheer them on.



 Some of the homes close to the downtown area reminded me of homes you would find close to coast somewhere.  They were so cute and quaint.  I think someday Bryan and I would love to go up and check out all the shops without all the kids without us.  We are excellent window shoppers!
 They has one of the best Moose stores I have been too.  Look at all the fun PJ's!!!  I might have to revisit this store someday and stock up.
 Crazy girls....I don't know where they get this....any ideas??
 Probably the kids favorite part of the day was taking a ride on the Alpine Slides.  They were a little nervous going up on the ski lift, but all of them did great.  The views from the lift were amazing, I could have stayed up there all afternoon.  Next time I we want to try the Alpine coaster, it looks like so much fun.  Note to self....be prepared to go really slow if you are behind Cambree, she was very cautious on the slides.  I think it had a lot to do with the fact that she wasn't strong enough to release the brake completely be herself.  We were planning on her riding with me, but when we got to the top we realized she was too tall to ride with someone.  I was proud of her for being brave and riding alone.  Brody rode with Emery, Landry with Bryan, the rest of us rode alone.  It was a lot of fun and I'm sure we head back up there next summer/fall.






 Of course we ended our day touring Park City at the candy store.  I had to have a caramel apple of course. Love the time we had to spend together there, can't wait to go back....when the snow melts!
