My mom and dad came to
visit us over the weekend.
Our time together was action packed!
We enjoyed a nice dinner
at home on Thursday night.
We made steaks with baked potatoes
and cheddar biscuits - it was delicious.
Friday, the boys went skiing at Snowbasin
while my mom and I rode the train into
Salt Lake City to shop at City Creek Center.

After a day of skiing and shopping,
we met up at the LDS Temple.
We had reservations at a restaurant
on the 10th floor of the Joseph Smith
building next to the Temple at
Temple Square.

Check out this view! It looks like
a painting, doesn't it?!
It's not - it's the view from
the Roof restaurant,
where we had dinner Friday night.

Saturday was an adventure.
We drove to Snowbird in Cottonwood
Canyon for a snowmobile tour.
It was the perfect day for it - crystal clear
skies and warm temperatures.

My mom was nervous about snowmobiling in the first place -
then they gave us avalanche beacons... that did not ease her apprehensions. |

After riding the tram to the top of the mountain, we had to ride a ski
lift down the mountain to get to our snowmobiles.

no one was injured. |

Sunday, we went to church
and then drove to Park City for lunch.
While in Park City, we visited the
Olympic Park Museum and shopped
at the Outlet Mall.
We had such a good time!
I'm so glad they finally got to visit!
Oliver enjoyed their visit as well.
