Grand Coombs Staycation

Ben's parents took us all on a mini vacation to Salt Lake. We stayed at the Grand America Hotel! It was beautiful and we had a lot of fun as a family.

First thing after we checked in we went swimming. The pool was really cold so we spent most of our time in the hot tub...even the kiddos!






After our swim we got all cleaned up for a night on the town-riding Trax to The Gateway and eating at Tucanos. Ellie didn't want to be by Dax at first because he peed in the tub and Dax couldn't get enough of his reflection in the faucet :)


The next morning we walked around the beautiful hotel trying to find a good place for family pics.

  
The kids were less than thrilled about pictures, but we did manage a few good ones :) 








After checking out we went to the Discovery Gateway and had a blast!!










There were so many fun things to explore and pretend to be! It was a really fun adventure for the kids. We learned that Cole could be a helicopter pilot already and that Ellie has stage fright :)








Thanks for the fun staycation Grandma and Grandpa Coombs!

We decided to end our fun filled day with a trip to see Grandma Wini. The kids had fun there, especially Ellie who wasn't shy and climbed all over the walker, asked for a snack and asked Grandma why her feet were so fat :) I'm glad we went to see her because who knows how much longer she will be around. 

We have had a great week in Utah with all of our family! Thanks for the fun everyone!!
