A Swissian Evening Away

Another school year is just around the bend. The Dad took us to the Zermatt for one last getaway before the intense preschool curriculum reigns yet again. 051
Midway, Utah isn’t much more exciting than a pool visit, a few carousel rides, bakery treats, yodeling;) and a Mexican meal at Tarahumara…so that’s precisely what we did. And we enjoyed ourselves.

Miss Kate always loves the helltels and a life of luxury. I honestly think this was the very first time she didn’t cry while leaving a hotel…that’s how much she loves a vacation! 048
Such the little pageant girl with that wave
Now, Cole, on the other hand, that’s questionable. Don’t let the smiles fool you; SUCH a grumpy boy this trip! I’ll go ahead and blame it on teething this time around, but geez, we’ll need to work on that. 050
Cute as can be, but a real spitfire!

As for Dave and me, we liked our room. It was magic. After a few test runs of a vacationing with a new baby, Dave felt inspired to upgrade to the Villa, which sported a couple of rooms, a kitchen, and a lovely split bath. Bless him! While we can’t always afford rooms like this, it made putting the kids to bed so much easier this go around. If only we could vacation this lavishly all the time…

Well done, Mr. Blackhurst. I think we are now ready for preschool!

  2. That Cole may be a spitfire, but he is such a stinkin' cute kid. It was fun to see you guys at the BBQ.
