Good Times, Great Friends

Carson as the water dinosaur

I actually applied sunscreen this day








The pioneer schoolhouse in the Treehouse museum



We spent last weekend doing what we do best: vacationing! Our great friends the Carlsons invited us to their condo up Ogden Canyon at a lovely resort called Wolf Creek. Although we had 6 kids ages 5 and under, we managed to have a fabulous time! If you have never visited the Children's Treehouse Museum in Ogden, it is worth the drive. It is so cute and less crowded and less expensive than the one in Gateway. Our kids had a blast there. We also soaked and relaxed in the hot tub, enjoyed the beautiful scenery, took a trip to Pineview's beach, and ate candy like there was no tomorrow.
The Carlsons are definitely true friends. We have been hanging out since we were both dating. They have witnessed us at our best and worst (I won't elaborate on the whole throwing the snowboard incident). And they still keep calling us! Through it all, we've laughed and grown up together. We're so glad they decided to settle in Utah. Here's to lifelong friends and more good times!

Oh I have wanted to go to the tree house museum. I glad to see your family liked it. I am going to have to give it a try this summer. You always do the funnest things. Weekend vacations are the best.
