We'd been planning to spend this weekend in Salt Lake for several months now. There was a bike race that Kyle wanted to enter and it was family friendly so we were all going to do it together. Unfortunately, the Utah weather report kept getting worse and worse so in the end, Kyle decided he didn't want to ride in a race with rain/snow and 30 degree weather...we certainly didn't argue. We ended up staying home and for a weekend without plans, we did quite a lot.
Friday was a day off for Kyle so once we made the decision to stay home, we headed to breakfast, Barnes & Noble and Babies R Us. Tripp, Kyle and Abbie all picked out some new books and used the pile of gift cards we had stored up to pay. We then headed to the dreaded Babies R Us to get the rail for Abbie's place in the bunk bed. We are going to try and talk to her this week about moving into her "Big Girl Room" then try it out next weekend while Kyle visits his mom (I'll update you on the progress later...cross your fingers for us). That afternoon, Tripp and Kyle went to a movie and I worked while Abbie napped. Later that day, we all went for a bike ride here in town. It was terribly windy but we still had fun.
Saturday morning was spent on a little yard work then hanging up our Halloween decorations. We are big fans of Halloween! That afternoon, Kyle had a football game then we headed to Playhouse Disney Live! thanks to Grandpa Marz (we were having trouble buying tickets but he managed to get us some from a friend). Abbie really enjoyed it and Kyle was a good sport and did all the little kid stuff so that Abbie would be exited too.
Sunday was a relaxing day for us...General Conference. Although it started at 9 a.m., just like our ward, we enjoyed watching it at home in our PJs. After conference we went to my parents' house for brunch then came home for a relaxing second session, dinner, a walk and hopefully bed soon.
Hope you all had a lovely weekend too!

Sounds like a nice weekend as a family! You did get to do some fun things. It was good to see you guys today.
If you ever have plans to come to Utah after the condo is sold you always have a place to stay with us. The bike thing that Kyle was interested in sounds like fun. Who sponsered it? Sounds like you had a great weekend with your great little family.
For Tina - The bike race was Utah Bike for Kids and took place in Murray
