Oh my goodness we had no idea what we were missing. I thought all parade of homes were created equal and boy was I wrong. I had heard of a few friends going down to Utah Valley for the parade of homes and was intrigued. Matt and I have always loved the parade of homes and have taken the girls for many years. After looking up the houses online we decided to book a hotel and make a weekend out of it. We did about 10 houses a day. We came away completely inspired and dreaming of a house that may well be out of our price range. The girls were pretty good and Liam was just happy to be along for the ride.
Some of the kids spaces were unreal
The tramp pit was awesome
Liam was pretty thrilled with his first taste of ice cream and wouldn't give it back. He also blew through his pants so he was living his best life in just a shirt, diaper, and an ice cream cones.
The outdoor living and landscaping was super cool and something we will definitely incorporate in the future. The girls have all requested the large swinging beds.
I also loved the labeled lighting!! A must for the next house it feels like its taken several months to remember which switch is for which
There was a soccer field in one of the houses under the suspended slab which Hallie thought was really cool
I love locker and there were so many ideas and different layouts it was awesome
In total we saw 10 homes the first night. It was awesome but we were starving we ate dinner at 10 and then got everyone bathed and ready for bed everyone was so tired. We slept good and the next morning we headed down to breakfast before Liam was ready for a nap. While he napped Matt took the girls swimming. They of coarse loved it.
Then after a good nap for Liam and some swimming for the girls we checked out, grabbed lunch, and headed to see more houses.
We took Liam's infant car seat and he napped while we traveled form house to house so that was nice
It ended up being such a fun couple of days. We saw 21 houses in total and we all survived and really enjoyed ourselves. I think it may be a new family tradition
