Swiss Days and IKEA . . .






So . . . . a few weeks ago I made one of my mom's dreams come true and we had a great time.  My mom has always said that she has wanted to go to Swiss Days in Heber but we have never been able to go . . . until, this year.  We left really early Saturday morning with a car full of Mate, snacks and good music and headed to Heber.  It was a beautiful morning and it was good we got there early because it was packed full of crazy Swiss Day goers who loved the homemade scones, crazy booths and small town parade.  It was fun to see all of the crafts and the parade reminded me of a typical Morgan parade with High School Cheerleaders and homemade floats.  We then made our way to SLC and another place my mom was dying to see - - - -IKEA.  It was just like everyone has said in that it had great deals, new looks and good prices.  It was a really fun weekend.

This is mom and I bright and early Saturday morning . . 


Here is the typical Susy Chard road trip food - - - - bread, string cheese and of course Mate . . .




It was a beautiful day and they had a fun little parade as well (check out mom's serious face)


Now here comes the fun time of the trip - - -the great IKEA.  Now you can tell by the looks on both of our faces how we felt about the decision that was made to come to this store:)



and that's a wrap . . .
