Park City Vacation

We took a quick trip with the girls to Park City for a weekend.  I was determined to get away with our family even if it was short.  I found a hotel that was reasonable and was supposed to have a realy nice pool.  It was nice and the pool was great, but I feel like when I got there I was a little disappointed with the size of everything.  We opened the hotel door and it opened right in front of the bed.  The couch was a step from the bed and the pull out couch barely fit in the small space in front of it.  There was supposed to be a kitchenette but it was sndwiched between the door and the bed so if the door was open there was no way to get to it.  and the bathroom was a step in the opposite direction.  To say it was a little squishy for 4 people was an understatement.  We brought Raelyn's blow up bed and Audrey a mattress pad because a pull out couch is never nice to sleep on, but I wouldn't have been able to fit either of them on the floor in front of the couch.  We ended out pulling out the couch and both girls slept together.  Rae didn't sleep much at all but it worked out to be just fine despite my hope for larger.  
The pool was much smaller than it looked online but again it turned out just fine and the girls loved spending time swimming, eating ice cream, walking around looking in the downtown shops and art galleries, eating good food, and spending time together as a family.   
Paul and I were able to go out on a date while there which made me super happy.  We had pizza together and then went swimming.  It was a good break and Audrey was sweet to watch movies while she made sure Raelyn didn't wake up in the bed next to her.  
There was a pretty epic calendar sundial there.  I've never seen one and Paul was super glad to tell me all about how it worked which I was grateful for.  Audrey's favorite part is always the shops. We never buy anything but that girl loves window shopping, trinkets and books are among her favorites.  My favorite was of course my date with Paul but also the art galleries, especially the photography ones.  Raelyn's favorite was swimming.  At one point she thought it would be okay to just run and jump in the pool.  It's a good thing Paul was there.  We definitely have to keep our eye out for her.  
Over all I'm sad I didn't get more photos.  I haven't been very good at remembering my camera lately, hoping to remedy that and record more of Raelyn's life.
