Our Trip To Grand Junction, Colorado

We decided to make the long drive to visit Eric's mom and brother. We actually made pretty good time and made it in six hours with a one hour break to eat. Nobody puked or had an accident all the way down! Yeah! After we spent an hour at Grandma's she had to go to work so we ate and then went to the hotel. When we stay at a hotel Eric has to sleep in one bed and me in the other. Easton then sleeps in playpen and then we split up the kids. The girl's did not want to go to bed and kept getting up and down. I thought Eric was going to commit murder but finally they went to sleep.

On Sunday all of the kids stayed at Grandma's so Eric and I could go on a date. We ate at a Mexican place and then went to the mall. They have a cool mall that is connected to Target. I found some good deals at the Gap Outlet but of course, it was for the kids. After that we all had a nap. It was much needed after a night of little sleep.

One of our traditions that we usually do is go bowling. Tyler had been asking to go for awhile so it only made sense to all go. Chris and Reyna came too. Eric beat everyone but we all had a good time.




After bowling we all went to Olive Garden. We have never taken our kids to a place that nice but they did pretty well. We had yummy italian food and stuffed ourselves silly! We then went over to Chris and Reyna's to hang out for awhile. The kids watched a movie and they all looked so cute on the floor. They took right away to Reyna and even Easton would let her hold him. He kept climbing on her back and standing up, what a funny kid.




Thankfully, the kids went right to bed the second night. Grandma came to the hotel and we swam. The kids love to swim anytime,anywhere.






I just had to take a pic of this! What a cute bum, literally.



Grandma wanted to celebrate Tyler's birthday since it's next week. He got a spongebob game and a hot wheel's car thing. He picked out his cake and got the biggest piece ever! Easton looked so cute eating with his tray. About five minutes later he spilled it all over the floor! That's kids for you.




Eric went out to the garage and came back wearing this! For some reason, he thought it was the greatest thing in the world. He even wanted to take it home with us but luckily it is his brother's halloween costume.
