A Weekend in Midway

 

Happy Monday!!

We have so much to catch up on! I hope you all had a great Valentines day weekend and or enjoying your Presidents Day!

The kids were absolutely spoiled on Valentines day. They are just absolutely adorable in these pictures! I love them!

Saturday after I taught pump I headed home and packed up for the annual Bement Girls Trip. We do this once a year with my MIL and all my SIL’s. I have missed it a couple times and I’m happy that I was able to go this year! We were missing two of us though.. boo.

We decided to just have an overnighter up in Midway, Utah. We headed up in the afternoon and spent the morning shopping in the Tanger outlets in Park city before heading to Midway. We all got a few great deals and seriously shopped till we dropped!

After shopping we headed to a Mexican restaurant in Midway that has had rave reviews, Tarahumara.

You stand in line, which is ridiculously long at times but we had beat the rush so we didn’t have to wait to long. After you order you get your own drink then find your own seating in the dining room.

They give you a little box of homemade tortilla chips and you get to pick your salsa out of their amazing salsa bar! We all went a little crazy and tried as many of the salsas as possible.

I ordered the Chicken Fajitas with corn tortillas. It was fabulous! I ate the whole plate! We spent a little time in their bakery afterward, sampling cookies and checking out all the decadent desserts and pastries.

My only tip for eating here would be to eat like a senior citizen.. like at 5pm if you know what I mean. Then you will beat the rush and won’t have to wait forever and hopefully get a good seat!

After dinner we headed to our hotel. We stayed at the Zermatt Resort! It is a beautiful hotel and we had a blast just hanging out, painting nails, chatting and watching movies.

Sunday morning we drove to the Midway Castles!! I have been wanting to see them for so long since it seems like everyone in Utah has been there this winter so far.

It was closed..

But we were able to walk around it and marvel at its amazing design!

Baylee and I have recently become obsessed with this youtube video that was filmed there.

I have always been a fan of Alex Boye but can you believe that girl is 11 years old!! Amazing!

We set my camera on the car and tried for a group photo..

For breakfast we headed back to Park City and ate at the eating establishment on Main. I ordered the Park City Omelet. It was okay.. I probably wouldn’t go there again just because our server was rude and inconsiderate. Maybe she was just mad she had to work on a Sunday.

After breakfast we spent a couple more hours shopping before heading back home. The rest of my day was pretty low key and spent catching up with these little loves.
