Father-Sons

 Here's part of who went...

This is Wes and our boys but Grandpa Gardner met them up there

and Wes also took up Bro Hudson and his 2 boys as a service. 

Wes said it is just too stressful and busy to get lots of pictures there so I'm grateful for these:)

Always an adventure:  they had a tire go flat on the way up from a sharp rock and it took them a lot longer to get there than planned.  Grandpa always comes stocked with lots of yummy food to take care of them though.  Chicken fried steak, potato chips, homemade bean dip, rootbeer, milk, his homemade hot cocoa...always too much fun with Grandpa.

While the boys are away the girls will play and we usually have Girls Night Out on this Friday that they are gone.  This year Brookly had a birthday party she felt she needed to be at to support her friend so I wandered Hobby Lobby alone until they kicked me out at 8.  Then I grabbed Wendy's and watched Cosby Show until time to get Brooky.

We made Saturday our Girls Day however.  We went shopping with her birthday money and she got darling clothes at Kohls and a fun jewelry making kit and game at Walmart. We hit Bahama Bucks for a Strawbery Daquiri Cream shaved ice and topped it off with a date with Wes that evening at Golden Canyon, our favorite Chinese restaurant with famous hot and sour soup and delicious Lemon chicken and Mongolian beef.  We grabbed Brookly's free Coldstone on the way home.  We shopped til we dropped:) What a fun birthday week for Brookly!
