Magical Places

The place: The Treehouse Children's Museum in Ogden. It seriously was the most magical place. Ever. It was two stories of kid (and adult) heaven with a giant tree in the center that had a staircase in side. You would take the stairs in the center of the tree to get to the second level. There was so much to explore and we just let the kids go crazy with it until they about collapsed of exhaustion. A ton of the areas has dress up too. Like the fire truck area above.

Olivia spent quite a lot of time at the Doctor section. She kept picking up the babies and rocking them, then tucking them back in their bassinets. The she would make the rounds and check their heartbeat. From their stomach.

The barn area was equally as cool with a cow you could milk. Except water came out, not milk.
There was also an aquarium, dinosaur area, singing and story time, Indian tee pee, Lego's like crazy, mini houses that represented different countries.... I was blown away at how awesome this place was.

There was a lot of time spent in the snow. The guys took the big girls sledding. Olivia loved sledding, but didn't like walking in the snow. The first day of sledding Blaine found it more fun to make snowballs, but when they went sledding again she was going like a pro.

Why is Marcus not wearing his coat here? Because he left is coat at Trevor's sister's house. THEN he left his fleece (or back up coat as it were) and Kaitlyn's cousin's house. It was quite the shenaniganery to get them all back. We gave him a pretty hard time about it the rest of the trip. So for the love of a daughter he braved the cold in just shirt to take her sledding. In his defense he did have his hands chock full of kids at each location when we were leaving, making him forget his coat (s). But none of us left stuff behind...I'm just saying...
