Free – Or Cheap! – Weekend Family Fun Along The Wasatch Front

So, here’s my challenge for ALL of us this weekend: get out of your comfort zone and try something new. I think my family life is a little stale and in need of shaking up, so maybe yours is, too. This is the perfect weekend to stretch a little and see how clever and competent you really are. Ready?
