Shopping

Our day started out with me working at the gym

but then we quickly got ready and made our

way done to Pleasant Grove.  Almost

to where Brandon works.  And if you know

me well you know that I don't usually ever

drive past bountiful and sometimes into

salt lake and that is about it.  So I was

a little nervous to find the store and to

handle the traffic.  And to make it worse

for me traffic came to a stop just after bountiful

when I was beginning to think I could handle

this.  Anyway we had to merge onto

2-15 and I really don't know my roads.

I had to call Brandon to have him tell me 

that 2-15 meets back onto I-15.  I know

most of my family is probably shaking their

heads or laughing at me.  But I'm a stay

close to home kind of gal. 

Anyway a few turn arounds and phone

calls and we made it to our destination.

Brandon got off work and met us there

right after we arrived.  And thank goodness.

The kids were out of control and after we left

the attendant asked Brandon, "Now how many

kids did you have"!  Well I guess four was like

10 that day! 

We almost wanted to bag our plans and go home

rather then go to another store with the kids but

we are never down there as a family and decided to go

to Cabelas anyway.  Owen would not stand

close to the bear for a picture but loved looking

at all the animals.  

We can't go anyway even if its only been

an hour and one if not all of the my girls 

have to pee.  I love this picture.  Owen

is particular about his hat and it depends

on his mood how he wears it.   Sometimes

it's sideways and that's when I call him.

Slim Shady! 

Brandon and I still waiting on the girls! 

Owen and Sierra are looking at the fish behind me. 

They are young and easily distracted and can't

look at me for a picture for 3 seconds.  ahhhh

After Cabelas we went out to eat at

Applebees.  I use to eat there all the time

with my friends and once or twice with

Brandon years ago so I thought what the

hey my kids are getting a little older

and might eat the food we order and might

behave.   They were good and ate their

food but I don't think we'll be going there

anytime soon.  The food was not as I 

remember and the service was awful.

We waited a good 15-20 minutes just

waiting for a waitress to come take our

order and bring us drinks.  And when

you are starving with 4 starving kids

that does not please a mom!

So since dinner took longer than we had

planned we had less then 30 minutes

to tour the new Sheels store.  

The kids had fun posing in all

the picture booths.  I love Owen's

face in this one.  I knew he would

not stand in the picture so I had Brandon

put him on his shoulders and he

had to look away pouting. 

It was fun for the short time there. 

And yes we had to look for our kids a few times

in the 30 minutes we were there.  

There is just so much to look at.
