Staycation

So on Wednesday the 12th we had planned to do a little stay-cation with the boys. At first we were planning on using this stay-cation to go to the Temple but after planning it and booking the hotel we realized that the Temple was closed. So we figured it would just be a fun outing that we could have fun making memories with the boys. So we booked a hotel in Denver and told the boys that we were going to be staying at a hotel with a hot tub! Ethan was so excited that he talked about it about every day until we went. He would get so upset when I told him that we were not going to be going each day and then when it finally arrived they were excited but they had gotten colds, go figure! Brandon had a CE coarse that morning in Denver so the boys and I headed down after preschool and hung out at the hotel until he was done. Then the fun started! We had dinner at the hotel and then went swimming for a little while. After going swimming we headed back to our room grabbed some popcorn and watched a movie while eating popcorn laying on our beds! The boys thought it was so much fun! The night was terrible for sleeping though! Since Ethan had caught Wyatt's cold he was up every hour until about 2:30 and then up again at 4 and 6. It was a very long night and each time he would just freak out. We are lucky that Wyatt did not wake up while laying next to him during his freak out sessions! That next morning we grabbed lunch and then went to the pool again to enjoy it one last time before checking out of the hotel. After swimming we got washed up, packed up, checked out and then headed to ikea to grab some shelving for the basement! 

The boys thought it was so cool to play with the phone! The only rule was they could not touch any of the buttons! 

Getting ready to go swimming!

Ethan took this picture of the pool..

and hot tub! 

They sure enjoyed the hot tub. Well once the burning stopped! haha 

It was a fun staycation even though Ethan had such a hard time. He is such a panzy when it comes to being sick! The boys had a blast swimming in the hot tub and staying up late. Even though it became a nightmare in the middle of the night we were glad that we did it so we could make some fun memories with our boys! 

I also must quickly mention how terrible it was to go to ikea. Sure Ikea was great but since Ethan had gotten only a few solid hours of sleep he had a total melt down while at Ikea. It was great having him screaming and hitting and trying to bite (yes I said trying to bite) us while everyone was watching. Besides that but everyone got to watch us try to discipline him and calm him down as well! It was a lovely occasion! We should have known that it would happen with him being sick and having no sleep and barely any food in him since he didnt want to eat! But, we always hope it will turn out better than it does! haha 

Anyways, besides all of that joyous stuff we really did have a fun time. :-)
