Fairview Museum and Park

As mentioned earlier, last week was a whirlwind! On Tuesday we packed up and headed down to Fairview, Utah, for the Higbee Reunion. It's the first big trip that we've taken with Tristyn, so I didn't realize how much stuff there is to pack for two kids and two adults for 4 days! The Armada was packed tight. The trip down included a few stops and a crying baby. Since my arm isn't quite long enough to hold a binky in Tristyn's mouth from the front seat, we stopped and I climbed in the backseat. Literally seconds after I climbed back there, she was out--without the binky! Crazy kid! Mason slept for the first hour and was good watching a DVD the rest of the way. We arrived at Skyline Mountain Resort in the late afternoon and just hung out for the evening.
On Wednesday the 23rd, we took Mason to the town museum to see this large Mammoth skeleton. He thought it was pretty cool . . . until he realized there was an elevator in the building, at which point the up and down buttons became more cool!
Then we went to the park and Mason played on this huge playset. Well, he didn't play on all of it--about 95% of his time was spent going down the twisty slide at the right. He always heads straight for the biggest slide he can find!
He went down this slide once, but didn't like the hot plastic. Tristyn and I were sitting under the pavilion in the shade and he acted like he'd rather be there with us than playing. I don't blame him since it was about 1 pm and very hot! We decided to go back to the cabin and enjoy the A/C!
Mason loved the swings at the resort and would have stayed on them for 4 days straight if someone would have stayed to push him for that long!
The next few posts will have more photos of our trip!
