Wendover for UEA???

Well ya we took our kids to Wendover for UEA break. We decided since they did so great on their grades that we would like to show them how much we appreciate their work. So we had a free room to Wendover and took them there. It was great the kids all slept on the way out there until we got to the "TREE" if you haven't seen the tree it is amazing. We stopped and checked out the salt flats and we all tasted the salt. I think the kids just wanted to make sure it wasn't a field full of sugar. Then we went to the hotel, we stayed at the Rainbow. When we entered the room all of the kids jaws dropped to the floor. They were amazed at how nice the room was. They thought it looked like a Kings Palace. Then we hit McDonalds for happy meals and then the pool for a great time. The pool was really cold but after staying in the hot tub for a while the pool felt great. Then we all fell into a deep wonderful sleep. The next day they were invited to G-ma and G-pa's for a night with the cousins for a sleep over. They all had a great time together while Terry, Troy, and I headed out to Wendover for another night of fun. It was great not to have to think about homework and getting ready for school. We just love taking it easy on our own time frame. Thanks guys for the wonderful weekend.

Looks like you had a great time. My kids love it when we go away to a hotel. It is always nice to get away from home.

Sorry I don't have a "beach" picture so I hope it's okay to leave a comment still??
I think it's great that you guys do so much as a family.. I can't wait for the day my youngest gets a touch older so we can start doing things... Enjoy them while they are young I guess.

All the kids wanted to do for UEA was stay at a hotel with a pool...it was an awesome, relaxing vacation! Looks like you guys had so much fun...and I love that you got a night alone as a couple. THAT would have made UEA perfect!
