Vacation in Park City

 We needed a little break. So for the weekend we went to Park City/ Midway. The rides at the resort are awesome. We love the Alpine slide and the coaster. The kids love it and we all have fun.  Park City also has a lot of fun places to eat.
 One of our favorite places to go is Java Cow and get some ice cream.

We stayed at Zermatt in Midway. Zermatt is very fun. Great pool and a carousel.

As a child, my family would stay at the Homestead. It was sold out this weekend, but we went there and climbed the crater and had lunch. To me the Homestead was the best place in the world. It seemed we were there forever, we were probably there for three days. We used to swim and go for walks and ride horses.

The boys kind of looked around like, what do you do here? But my memories of the Homestead is about family. About Aunt B vacationing with us, playing cards at night, swimming every afternoon, walks with the family, making drinks for my parents and Aunt B (vodka and Tang...ew).  So I try to incorporate the same feeling with my little family on our vacations (minus the vodka and Tang).  Just hanging out, swimming for hours, and slowing down our pace. The kids thought it was a great vacation. I think it was just great to be together.
