Every year in the fall, my kids have two days off for fall break. Lately, whenever we travel, we always go to San Diego to visit family. Don't get me wrong, we love going there, but we wanted to go somewhere close that felt like we were truly on a vacation. My friend Dara and I had been talking about going on a trip with our families together, so when we found a great deal at the Westgate in Park City, we were thrilled that they wanted to join us. The rooms were tiny, but we still had a blast.
Reina was obsessed with the blow-dryer in our room. Whenever we were in the room, this is what she was doing.
You might be wondering what is in the picture below. Well, the rooms all had kitchenettes and the maids left an oriental rice bowl in our fridge. So we started the rice bowl war with our friends the Jakins. First we left it by their door with a note saying they had ordered it from room service. We had put whipped cream on top. Then they brought it back with something added to it. This rice bowl war went on back and forth for hours and some of the things that were added were: mustard, bread, bananas, teddy grahams, a coffee fitler, a water bottle and other things. It was funny and Aaron says it was the best part of the whole trip!
The bowl progressed into notes being sent along with it. The Jakins sent the note below in the words of Justin Bieber. So funny.
The bowl got truly disgusting.
The sad part is that my camera never left our room, so I didn't get any pictures of our friends.
We had a great time. The kids were in and out of the pool. They have the biggest pool in Park City and half of the pool is indoor and half is outdoor. The weather was absolutely beautiful while we were there.
One of the best parts of our couple days there, was that Dara & I would get up every morning and go walking. We are dorks and even had matching sweatshirts from the outlets. The scenery was beautiful and I loved walking with her. A couple other fun things we did was on the 2nd night the adults went to dinner and the kids got pizza in the room while we were gone. Their kids are older than ours, so they babysat & we took Reina with us to eat. Since the resort had kitchenettes, they cooked one meal and then we did another. Thanks for going with us Jakins and let's do it again!

Sounds like fun. That rice bowl thing looked so nasty, but I bet it was fun. I love the note about their kids having later bedtimes. LOL
