Sleepover Day 5 -Swimming, eating, petting Zoo and Home

Ambur took all the kids out swimming while I got everything all packed up.  It is a chore getting it all packed, but I managed to get it all while they were all swimming and they came in got dressed and they were all telling me how much fun they had.  I just love hearing their joy.














After swimming we packed up the van and started on our way to Parowan.  It is always bittersweet to have the time come to an end.  We stopped in Scipio at the petting zoo and had some real fun with the animals.  Gimlet also interacted and the lama's couldn't decide if they liked her or was scared of her, but they were very curious about her.  The cows however they loved her and she them.







































 We had snacks at the Dairy Queen inside the gas station and it was a nice rest and cool down.  Then we were off as our adventure came to an end.  What wonderful grandchildren I have.  I am always so grate4ful to Blaine and Sara for sharing the kids with me for a few days at a time.  It is always so much fun and I get to know the kids a little better because it is really the only time we get to spend much time together where they are really themselves.  I give thanks to my Heavenly Father for all that I have and for the special time we have been able to have together.  This is likely to be the last time that we will have a long 'sleepover' as my house in Las Vegas is on the market and I will be moving to Cedar City where I hope to have many, many little sleepovers with laughter and fun as I get to know these beautiful souls even better.  This has been one of the best weeks of my life.  I am so blessed and so grateful.
