Ok so I really need to be better about keeping up my blog. It's just terrible. But to make myself feel better about not keeping up my blog the best I tell myself that I'm spending that time playing with my little bug. And we have done lots of playing! I'll work backward and start with our fun vacation to Canada! Kolby went for business so Hudson and I tagged along. I had never been to Canada before so it was exciting! I worried for weeks after we booked the tickets about that plane ride. I dreaded it. Not because I hate flying. No no I love flying. This dread was because I would be flying with a 15 month old monster. He hadn't flown for a year and a year makes lots of difference. However, he did fabulous! I was so surprised and happy. He watched Mickey Mouse on the Ipad, did some snoozing, played with toys and fuzzy pipe cleaners (if you have not brought out the pipe cleaners for your little ones you should. lots of fun!), read books, and ate snacks. Once we got to Canada we checked into our hotel and then ate some dinner.

We were exhausted so after we all bathed we headed off to bed. The next morning we went to the sale where we market our product. The sale was not Hudson's favorite place. It was so funny though because there were people from all over Europe, Canada, America, and Asia there and even though I didn't socialize with most of them they all stopped to say hi to the cute baby. One man from Asia even put his face time up to Hudson so that whoever was on the other end could see the sweet little guy. Whoever was on the other end put their baby on and there Hudson sat face timing a baby in Asia somewhere. It was great fun! Hudson ended up being the hit of the auction!
After lunch we went to the Toronto Zoo. Ok my friends, this zoo was ginormous (sp?)! It had so many different kinds of animals and we had a blast!
After walking around for hours and taking Hudson on the merry-go-round we left and went to dinner at the Rainforest Cafe. I love that place and it kept Hudson occupied too.
The next day we went to the sale for a bit and then Kolby had meetings so I headed out with the baby to a shopping mall nearby. This was one of the best malls that I've been to and I had so much fun checking out the stores. I didn't buy much but had fun looking! Pottery Barn and William Sonoma were my faves! When we got back we ate some dinner, went swimming, and got some ice cream. On our last full day there we went to the sale and then ventured off looking for the Toronto Temple. It was about 20 minutes away from our hotel but the drive was worth it. What a beautiful temple!
That evening we went to dinner with some friends and then got ready for our long trek home the next day. Once again, Hudson was fabulous and we made it home safe and sound.

ReplyDeleteUm I was just looking at your blog and thinking the same thing about your little ones! How is it having two kids anyway? We do need to get together soon. Are you guys still in Huntsville? Maybe we could meet somewhere fun in Ogden!
