Park City and Pumpkins

Park City

About 4 years ago we received a gift card from Dave's client at work for the Stein Eriksen Lodge in Park City. We didn't use it when we first got it because I was very pregnant with Landon, and then just kind of forgot about it. We found the gift card again and Dave called to see if they would still accept it, we were in luck! They were also offering a great "fall package" which included the hotel room and a 3 course meal at their fancy restaurant (the fanciest one I've ever been to...)

So Dave booked it and we went last weekend. I left Dawson for the first time overnight with my mom. The kids did great(unless you count Dawson waking up twice in the night), thanks mom!
I had heard people talk about how nice this lodge is, but I'd never really heard of it. When we got there I was stunned at it's beauty! The rooms.. wow.. the rooms. I have never seen a more beautiful hotel room. (Katherine Heigl had her wedding there this last summer, that's how nice it is!)

Thought I would include some pics of the hotel room. Too bad we only had one night, this place was awesome.
All dressed up for our fancy dinner! Our three course meal was awesome and a new experience for me. I think the fancier the restaraunt the slower the service and the smaller the portions. (We were still full) I would have taken pics of our meals that looked too pretty to eat.. but I felt weird... Dave got a spiked lemonade. That was funny.

I'm jealous of your Park City trip! Thanks everyone who took Kaemon to the pumpkin patch, it sounds like he had a lot of fun! More fun than he would have had here with his doped up mom!

What is up with that picture of you on the trailer. You look like you are 10 with buck teeth. On second thought, that is a pretty normal look for you except the 10 part.

Horray for the Pumpkin patch!! It is definately a Bennett Family Tradition. Landon is pretty tough holding that pumpkin up!
