Utah

We had a long enjoyable weekend in Utah, at least I enjoyed myself. Joe was flying out of Salt Lake on Thursday morning to go to his uncle's funeral in St. Louis, so I decided that since he was driving to Utah to the airport, that the kids and I would go spend the rest of the week and weekend at my moms. On Wednesday night we all went out to my brother's house for my nephew Levi's birthday party. The kids all loved that because they got to play with their cousins that they don't get to see very often. Thursday I had to drop Joe off at his parents at 6:30 a.m. so they could head to the airport. The kids spent the afternoon at Grandma Burger's house to play with their aunt Madison, and I spent the day with my mom. Friday the kids got to play for a while with their cousins Nic and Sammy, and also my brother Rex's kids. We spent most of the day at my brother's getting haircuts and playing. Then on Saturday we went to Hogle zoo we were all really excited to go to the zoo, the only problem was it was raining! We had to go to Walmart an buy umbrellas, and then we ended up buying poncho's for the kids when we got to the zoo. The only good thing about going to the zoo in the rain is that it isn't crowded. Sunday we went to church with my parents, and we were able to see my oldest sister, who we haven't seen in a long time. We headed home about 6:30 last night along with Joe's little sister Madison. All in all I think we had a good time. Now to keep all the kids and Madison entertained for the week! The only draw back to being gone 4 days is all the laundry that I get to spend today doing!

Joe had a nice visit in St. Louis other than it was a sad occasion, he was able to see his Grandma Burger along with aunts, uncles, and cousins who he hasn't see for years. I'm a Little jealous I have only been in the airport in St Louis.
