Mini Family Vacation

I seriously feel so clutter brained. Is that a thing? I feel like I have been doing so much, but haven't had time to document it. So a few things I need to catch up on. Lexi is now 2! Maya is 3 months! We had a small family vacation, and Lexi had a cute birthday party.  So,  I am first going to start off with our trip up north! The others will be in different post.

Friday, Aug 29. All of Broc's family took off and headed up towards SLC for the holiday weekend. Broc and I were lucky enough to stay at his sister's in laws house. They were great host and had tons of toys which Lexi loved.
We left bright and early around 8am. Lexi was super tired because her party was the night before. This is how I found her Friday morning.

 Lexi was a really good traveler. She only used my phone for about 5 minutes, slept about 30 minutes, and talked and play for the rest of the way. Which was about 3+ hours. 
 The whole way up there Lexi wanted to be able to see Madden's car. 
 We had a very busy day. After we got up to Lehi, which is where we were staying, we rested a bit and about 4pm we headed to Seven Peaks. The kids (Lexi, Madden, and Chloe) had not napped that day. They were getting tired, but they were excited to go. On the way there Madden and Lexi were fighting over Maya. Which is odd, because usually neither one of them are "holding" her...
 I didn't get a ton of photos from 7 peaks, but a few from the water slide. Lexi loves the slide. 

 



Saturday was Lexi's birthday! I was so excited because my little girl was turning too! 
We went the new Aquarium. Lexi loved the fishes and just being able to run around. It was perfect weather up north.





 Lexi didn't like the sharks.






 Uncle Camden, Aunt Joclynn (Broc's sister), Chloe, and Lexi
 Sleep over with the cousins
 Saturday, after the Aquarium and lunch at the Cheese Cake Factory, which was amazing...
we all headed back the house and relaxed. I was the only adult awake for a bit...so I guess that automatically put me on baby watch duty. 





On Sunday, we went to the zoo. I was most excited about this. Lexi loved it.
 Lexi loved the Lion, Polar Bears, and Monkeys.





 Oh yea, and she loved the carousel!

 Oh! and the Ice cream! Which I did too!
After the Zoo, a few of use went back to Broc's brothers house and hung out for a bit. After that we headed back to where we were staying and had a BBQ. I really wanted to head back that night so we could have Monday off to relax and so we did.
We finally got home about 12:30. Maya slept the entire way, and Lexi woke up a fussed. Mostly because she was so sleepy, but a quick stop for some fresh air and we were good to go again! It was such a fun little vacation.
