For Spring Break, I wanted to do something special for the family so I contacted my friend, Amber, to see if we could get a good deal on a hotel in SLC and spend a few days there as a family. She hooked us up with the Marriott at City Creek.
We drove there after church, checked into our hotel and headed to Temple Square. Dave met us a little later. The flowers were just starting to blossom ....beautiful! Taylor said she really felt the spirit there so I am thrilled it left an impression.
The next day, we swam and got ready for the rainy day! BOOOO! Around 1:40pm, the boys were....ummmm....being pretty naughty. Hyperness is something I put up with every day with from the boys but ingratitude.....I can't take it. No. And they were both complaining non-stop. We had put up with it for a few hours and both Dave and I landed with a "no more!" So I called the front desk, told the receptionist my boys were being naughty and if we would be charged for a 2nd day if we checked out right then. She told me if we could check out by 2:00pm they wouldn't charge us. We were in the lobby by 1:51pm. Yes we were.
On our way home, the boys asked who they could play with when we returned home. I responded, "No one, and the weeds in our yard are about to get picked by boys."
Yup, it happened. I hope the boys won't forget this anytime soon.
Here is our sweetie pie Lou Lou! What a shining star!
