SpudMan & Park City

A few weeks ago we went up to, as Ellie calls it, THE Pocatello. To visit Brady's sister, Holly and her family. We had a lot of fun despite the crazy afternoon thunder storms. We ate a lot of ice cream, did a little shopping, went to the park, got snow cones, played with tons of fun new toys and cousins, and enjoyed our first SPUDMAN experience. 

Friday night Brady and Dave headed out to Burley to get things set for the triathlon and spend the night. Brady couldn't believe all the people that were camped out at the golf course and described it as tent city. Holly, the kids, and I drove out early the next morning. We made it in time to see Brady and Dave come in on the bike and both finish the race. The finish line was on one of the greens and totally marked off so the kids could run all over the soft grass. Ellie and Cooper were in heaven and so was there mother not trying to keep them out of the lanes. Brady and Dave both did an awesome job and are already looking forward to next year. 
 Since we had such a long drive home we decided to stop and stay in Park City on Sunday night. The kids had a blast swimming both days and with their floaties are turning into quite the little fish. We ate dinner at the Red Banjo and enjoyed a walk up and down Main street and did a little retail therapy at the outlets. 
 I think this might become an annual trip and I couldn't be more excited about it, if only it was a few hours shorter:)
