Aspen Grove 2009

 Aspen Grove is officially our new favorite family vacation spot! It is located a mile past Sundance ski resort in Utah. Thank you Arlene and John for the best family reunion ever! 
 
 
 At Aspen Grove the kids are divided into groups by age and taken by two group leaders to swim, do crafts, sing, and play games all day long! While the kids are playing, the adults have fun too! We played basketball, walleyball, paintball, ping pong, climbed a ropes course, went fishing, played cards, played with the kids, hung out while we ate candy from the candy store and did I mention that we ate......A LOT!  One night we played all sorts of games on a huge field. The kids were so fun to watch as they hopped around in the potato bag race. They also had a frontier night at the little western village where they gave the kids snow cones, and wagon rides. It was so cute because in each little western village building they offered candy, panning for gold, face painting and all sorts of other things for the kids. I couldn't find Kate for a minute and I found her inside the barber shop getting her face painted. 
 The best part of the whole trip was spending time with family! We miss everyone so much living out here in Indiana. I have to admit I had a hard time coming home after hanging out with family and being up in what I believe to be the most beautiful place on earth! 




 The kids had a blast dancing up on the pavillion stage. This is Hailey doing the robot move.

More Utah Pictures
 Hailey loved going with Grandpa to see his chickens. She helped gather the eggs. Hailey's favorite thing right now are horses so she couldn't get enough of them!

 We ended our trip with a pool party. Arlene arranged for us to borrow her neighbor's pool for the afternoon. So much fun!

Thanksgiving Point Pony Ride

 It was so fun to meet up with Nana and Grandpa Rigby for an evening in Utah. We went to Thanksgiving Point and Hailey and Kate went on the pony ride 3 times each! After a JCW's shake we had to say goodbye. We will see you in a couple of weeks!!!
