On Saturday morning the gondola near the Canyons Resort was running so we hitched a ride to the top of the hill. The ride is surprisingly fast.
At the top are all kinds of shops (most closed until it snows) and beautiful new condos and hotels. We decided quickly that we were beyond our social status up there. The kids found this "metal puppet" and played with it until we had enough annoyed stares from the noise we decided to leave. I think I'm much happier living at the bottom.
On the way home from Park City (ok a little out of the way), we stopped at the Mayan for lunch. We had not eaten there in a couple of years and were pleasantly surprised to find that it had been remodeled more like a jungle theme and the food was a little better. We actually ordered from the table and didn't have to walk down an assembly line of enchiladas. It reminded us a lot of the Indiana Jones ride at Disneyland and the RainForest Cafe.
Tyler, Megan, and Emily loved the divers. They followed them around when they weren't in the water. The kids loved the show and watched it 3 times. After eating we headed to Ikea for some more fun. Ikea can definitely take a good portion of a day-a lot of shopping for Wendell and Tyler. Megan and Emily could have stayed there all day. We ended up with a bookshelf for Tyler's room to try and organize the Lego mess a little more. The fun really began when we got home and had to then organize the Legos. We actually had the shelf together and everything off of Tyler's floor by dark---Pretty successful day!

I love the Alpine slides. We haven't given those a whirl since Haylie was born. I'm thinking it's time to go again. Haylie and Mikaela would love it. You all looked like you had a great time. I can't believe how big your kids are getting.
