Having a little fun along the way!

We drove up to SLC for another Dr. Appointment for Bryn and we decided to take Nate with us and have a little fun along the way. We took the kids to 'The Living Aquarium'. It was really neat. The kids were fascinated. Bryn loved picking out all of the "Nemos" and "Shocks" (sharks).
The shark aquarium and touching the sting rays were Nate's favorite! Overall, the aquarium was definitely fun!
We also went to Chuck E. Cheese for dinner...it was a HUGE hit! Bryn loved the carousel with the pink horse! Chris and Nate had a great time playing air hockey.
Nate was great help for his sister...especially in helping her win more tickets!
We met Brad and Parke there - Nate and Parke had a GREAT time together!
Bryn's favorite ride was the electronic teeter-totter. She must have put at least 25 tokens in that machine...one right after the other - she couldn't seem to get enough teetering in!
Nate was just having the time of his life!
Nate won a TON of tickets, but worked very hard to win them all too! It was definitely entertaining to watch! He picked out a Ninja Turtle prize and he was thrilled to pieces, however, he was a few tickets short, but the worker was nice and let him get it anyway! It definitely made his night! Thanks Chuck E. Cheese! Overall, we had a great trip to SLC with the kids, it was a nice getaway for the whole family and fun for all of us to be together. We asked Nate if he wanted to stay home with Grammie and Grampie or go up with us, and he said, "let's go as a family... I just want to be with my family." It was soooo sweet and cute. I couldn't even consider leaving him home! We normally just go up and back with no fun stuff, but because of Nate and his request - we made it fun for all of us! We were thilled to "Go as a family!"

Your kids are the cutest ever! I'm sad I missed your guys' last couple visits! I hope Bryn is doing okay and know that she's in my prayers! Love and miss you guys!
