Day Six was New Years Day. We woke up at James' and just relaxed and hung out with them all morning. Jamie made us crepe's for breakfast, and we had leftovers from the night before for lunch. One thing I really liked about our trip was the good mix of doing activities and having breaks like we did this morning. It was nice to not be rushed, to let kids nap, and to have some good visits with family.
After lunch we said good-bye to the James Cutts family and drove over to Uncle John, Aunt Alicia, and cousins Maggie and Jackson's. I don't have any pictures from this day, but we had a great time with John and family. In the afternoon we went shopping at Station Park in Farmington. Alicia and I split up from the group and got some good shopping done. We came in separate vehicles so we stayed a little longer than the rest. Chris and John and the kids walked around, checked out the cool candy store and fountain, and got donuts thanks to Uncle John. After shopping we hung out at their place. Dinner was a repeat of the night before but with more pizza and this delicious salad Alicia's friend brought. We watched the Alabama football game and John and Alicia's friends from Alabama, Mary and Aaron with their two kids, came over to watch and eat with us. It was really a fun night. Macy loved running around and playing with her cousins. We barely saw her all night! We stayed as late as Rachel would permit, and then left to go back to the Coulam's for the night.
Day Seven was Friday and our last day. We slept in and then went out to City Creek Mall in downtown Salt Lake with Aunt Pam, Paisley, and Scarlet. Chris got some shoes here and we visited the Disney store which the kids all loved. We played at the indoor dinosaur park for a bit and then left for lunch.

We parked a couple blocks away and walked down to the mall. On the way back we stopped to take a quick picture and look at the Salt Lake Temple. There was really more we could have done around Salt Lake, but with little kids we just did the minimum. Perhaps next trip!

We went to lunch at Apollo Burger, which we all really enjoyed. After lunch I stayed back at Pam's with sleeping babes, and Macy and Paisley, while Chris and Pam went to Best Buy and did some shopping. After they got back Pam stayed with the kids and Chris and I ran to Target to pick up a few things.
It was Pam and Spencer's 5 year anniversary so we all went to dinner that night at Settebello Pizzeria. My favorite was their lemon gelato! Back at the Coulam's the girls went to bed and we played some games before getting ready to leave the next morning.
