Our Ogden Hideaway

Marco had a killer week (um,or month or quarter) at work. It was time to steel him away, and the rest of us too! Park City was booked w/ Sundance Film Festival, St. George was a bit too much driving for an exhausted husband and so Ogden it was. The kids LOVED every minute of it! Marco and I loved being away from work and responsibility and just having fun! First was a stop at the old Union Station.
The kids became engineers at the Train museum.

We ate at a couple of really tasty joints there; lunch was at Karen's cafe and then we were off to the Dinosaur park.
The kids weren't quite sure if these dinos were going to eat them or not, so here they roared fierce to fend them off!They kept moving so the cold never got to them.In fact, they moved so fast Marco and I had to abandon any hopes of actually reading up and learning anything about these ancient lizards. Oh well!After they had all they could take of dinosaurs it was off to swimming and then dinner and then they were all exhausted and fell right into bed! The next morning we hit the Hill Air Force Museum which was arguably Enzo's 'most favoritest' experience EVER! He is enamored with planes and rockets and helicopters and he literally ran from one exhibit to the next. We will definitely return!

How fun! I knew about the dino museum, but not the train station.

What a fun thing to get away for the weekend and go to a new place. We might have to try that sometime.
