Cooper had Thursday and Friday off last weekend for UEA weekend. Bryce decided to take both days off of work so we could spend some time together as a family. We decided that we would take the boys and stay in a hotel on Thursday night. It's always fun for kids to stay in a hotel. Cooper and Clayton enjoyed swimming in the pool and hot tub. When we first got there, Bryce took Clayton over to see the four wheelers at the store next door. He had fun sitting on all the four wheelers.
Later that night, we went over to our friends house, Renee and Gary, and had Chinese takeout. The food was great. We had a wonderful time visiting with them and the boys had a good time playing with each other. When we got back to the hotel, we all crashed for the night!
On Friday, we took the kids to Thanksgiving Point that is located in Lehi. They always have so many different activities there for families. This was our first time going there. We went to the Cornbelly Cornmaze and Pumpkin Festival. It costs us $11 a person and there were over 40 Halloween and Fall activities for the kids to do.
Cooper enjoyed jumping on the bouncing horses. After that we headed over to the little cow cart rides. Cooper really wanted Clayton to ride with him, but Clayton was scared. He ended up riding with Bryce. I was surprised that Bryce's long legs could fit in one of those, but it did and they looked really cute together!
We also enjoyed the duck races (water pumps) , a spider web the kids could climb on, the talking chickens, the color mazes and the wooden tractors, trucks, and trailers with slides. We were able to watch the pig races. The kids enjoyed the little pigs running round and round and the crystal suckers mom got them! Bryce and I were irritated because we got into our seats 15 minutes early, and when the show got ready to start, lots of parents let their kids come and stand right in front of us. Oh well, life goes on!
After the pig races, we got to do Clayton's favorite thing...go on the hayrides. He just loves tractors, so he was so happy to ride on the trailer. The kids got to sit in a older fire truck and pretend to drive. After that, the kids played in the "bounce" section. Cooper spent alot of time here. He thought all the bounce houses were fun. Clayton headed off to do some smaller slides with Bryce.
The last thing we did, was to let the boys jump on the huge "pillows". These were filled with air and the size of a house. It was fun to watch Cooper have a great time on the pillows. Clayton, on the other hand, just wanted to throw sand on them! Why does he always have to act like his Uncle Shayne?!!!
We definitely could have spent another few hours there, but we were getting hungry and Clayton was starting to get tired. The weather was perfect and even a little on the warm side, especially for October, but it was great! It's something we will have to do again next year.
