Utah trip

We had the pleasure of visiting Utah this past weekend for my new nephew's baby blessing.  While there, we managed to fit in a few fun excursions.  The highlight for me was visiting my 92 year old grandma.  I was so surprised at how sweet and loving David was towards her.  They hit it off immediately.  Later, David asked me, "mommy, do we get old things on our hands and our face?".  It took me a minute to figure out what he was asking about, and then I realized that he had probably never seen a very old person before.


While we were driving around Murray, I noticed Wheeler farm and remembered going there as a child.  The next day, we went over there for a couple hours.  Here's David on an awesome climbing tree at the farm.  I wish I had one of those in my back yard!


Our visit couldn't be complete without a trip to temple square.  If you have never taken a tour of the church conference center, I highly recommend it.  Here we are enjoying the view from the roof.


David "touching" the temple.



...and, of course, our visit couldn't be complete without a trip to Provo.  Here's David at bridalveil falls.


This picture would've been much cuter with a better backdrop.  We had to take it in a hurry because Joseph was running off to meet my brother-in- law at the football game.  It's too bad that they lost.  Joseph still had fun!

Thanks Jessica and Brent for the fun trip!

What great pictures. Sounds like you had a great trip. You've had a lot of traveling lately it seems like! You look really pretty in black with your headband.
