Park City Trip: Part 1

After returning from our trip from San Diego, Jared really wanted to go on another trip. He was trunky to leave again after only two days of being home. He found a condo in Park City, Utah, that the whole family could go to. He liked the idea of going to this condo because we were able to leave the Saturday before Thanksgiving, stay until Wednesday, and still go home and have the rest of the holiday to rest and relax.
Jared's brother, Chad, and his family ended up getting a condo at the same place. Having them there made the trip way better than it would have been.  We enjoyed spending time with Chad and Des and our kids love to play and hang out together.
 The best and worst thing about the condo was the pool. It was great to go to the indoor pool every day. The kids really had fun and Lexie learned how to swim better. Jordyn loved blowing bubbles in the water, and Eli sat on the stairs and waited until Daddy would act like a boat. By the end of the trip, he was brave enough to jump into the pool and grab hold of Daddy.
 Mackenzie and Alexis cheesing it up in the pool.
 Jared taught the girls how to dive too. Most of the time it was a belly flop but once in a while they would get their heads in first. It was fun to see them try.
The last night, after we went swimming, we went back to our condo and started feeling itchy. REALLY itchy!  We figured that we just needed to shower off all the chlorine. We did.
Alexis broke out in a major rash that not only itched but burned. We all needed help so Jared went to the store and got some Benadril and anti-itch cream. Finally....some relief! The next day, when we checked out, Jared noticed the pools was taped off with the yellow caution tape. Nasty! What did we swim in?

We won't be returning to that condo!

You didn't notice that the pool was taped off? Funny.
