spring break fun

We wanted to do something fun for the kids during spring break, so we decided to go check out Logan's new Celebration Center.

Jessica's boyfriend Cale works there, and had given her some tokens for us to use, so we decided to go when he was working and see what they had to offer

It was our lucky day, because the valley channel was there filming a segment for TV, so one of the other employees, Jason (Cales good friend) was able to invite his family so there would be someone there to film (because with the temp being 39 degrees, there weren't a lot of people willing to ride those outdoor rides!) and we were able to tag along, so we got to ride all the rides out there for free!


We used our tokens from Cale for bumper cars and rock climbing, but the mini golfing and sonic boom, sling, swing, and skycoaster were all free.




I figured out what it would have cost if we had paid for everything seperately, and it would have been over $200! Score! We love it when we have connections, even if they are coincidental.


We had a great three hours having fun together, but it took us about that long to thaw out once we got home!

What a fun place....your town is definitely moving up in the world! I'm glad you got to do so many things for free too, but sorry that it was so cold. We are enjoying our last days before it gets too hot, so at least you've got something to look forward to.

How fun!! Score indeed! Does this mean Jake won't want to live in Ogden to be by the Solomon Center? Did you go on all those rides too? Does it put Lagoon to shame? I need to come out and have a date night with Kylee and Brody. We've been wanting to go there with them since last summer.
