Oops! We missed a few days

So we were waiting for the pictures to be emailed of our golfing adventure but they haven't come yet so we will post them later. We have really had a lot of fun the last two days. We got to go to Willard Bay to play on the "beach" on Friday. The kids got done practicing around 2ish and we drove the 45 minutes to our sandy destination. We bought some snacks and water toys at the local Dollar store and Walmart and we set out to have some fun. The kids were all looking forward to this tropical day in the water because the temperatures have been hot here. When we arrived and got out, we were so disappointed because there were a MILLION mosquitos. Luckily we had some bug spray with us and drenched everyone from head to toe. The bug spray kind of stung because we all had been bitten a couple of days before when we were outside and the new bug spray had lemon in it. Come to find out, they weren't mosquitos at all, only annoying gnats. The kids hopped in the water and started playing and then the Conrad family joined us and they really started having some fun. The Conrad children are about the same ages as my children and so they all play well together AND they have a dog that entertained Maci and gave her someone to play with. We didn't leave there until around 8:30 and no one wanted to go home. We'll have to do that activity again.
Saturday we only had one practice from 10-1:30 and while the older two were at practice, the little girls and I went grocery shopping. It just so happens that it was national Kid Day and Macey's grocery store had a lot of fun things going on for little kids. The had a huge inflatable slide, cotton candy, corn dogs, dunk tank, and face painting for free. Olivia and Maci had a blast! After we picked up the kids and had lunch, we met the Call's at the park by our house. The adults played a card game and the kids ran around the park playing tag and riding bikes. We went to their house for dinner and I got to do some more laundry. Sierra made potstickers and we had Chinese stir-fry too. It was yummy and the Call's are such good company. Still loving Logan!
