Park City With The Wood's

We had a family reunion with the Wood's at the end of August.  It was in Park City and all of Josh's siblings were there.  We had a lot of fun, and enjoyed the time spent with each other.

 Josh had to work in Salt Lake the day we went down there so I drove with the kids and went to IKEA and Target (my two favorite stores). Drake and I ate lunch in the cafeteria at IKEA. We were the only ones in there for a while so Drake thought it was pretty cool. A couple of people came in with some other kids and Drake ran over to me and said, "AAGGGHH those people are freakin me out!"  This kid makes me laugh everyday.  He NEVER stops talking and everything that comes out of his mouth is funny! Later that evening we met up with Josh and drove to Park City to be with the Woods.

 The next day Josh had to work again in Salt Lake. The rest of us went to the Main Street in Park City to look around the shops. We also got some ice cream and Drake threw the biggest fit I have ever seen. It was one thing after the other. He wanted a certain kind of ice cream, so I got that for us to share and then he wanted his own and didn't want any help from anyone.  Then he wanted a napkin, but not a white napkin a brown napkin!!  Then I went into the store to wash his hands off in the bathroom and on the way out he spotted a cookie and screamed because he wanted a treat!  YIKES! This wasn't just a little fit, these were all lay down on the floor, kicking and screaming fits! We all made it out of there alive though and got home quickly for Drake to take a much needed nap.


Cooper and Drake are the cutest little buddies.  Drake absolutely loves Cooper and wants to do anything Cooper does.  He watches him so closely so that he can be just like him.  They had a lot of fun on this trip and were able to play a lot!



On of the days we were there we went to Olympic Park to watch the ski jumpers practice.  It was really cool and fun to watch.  Then everyone but Stella and me went on a ski lift ride and a short nature walk.  Drake thought the ski lift was awesome.

We also looked around at the museum there at Olympic Park and were able to get some fun pictures...






One of the evenings we went to an outdoor concert at the Canyon's resort. The group we listened to were called "The Wood's Brothers".  They were really good and fun to listen to.



We rode a lift up to the concert.  I am not a huge fan of heights, especially when I have my two small children with me so it scared me to death, but everyone else thought it was great!



 Look at those two!  Drake is a spitting image of his Dad.  He looks up to him so much and does everything he does.  It is the sweetest thing ever!





On Sunday we went to an outdoor market called "Park Silly". It had darling stuff for sale, live music and some really yummy food.  We got some lunch and took it to a nearby park for the kids to play. 




Drake played so hard every day and was so filthy by the end of the day!  


Saying our good byes!  All of the Wood cousins: Logan, Emmy, Cooper, Capri, Drake, Stella, and Sydney.
