We were so excited to go on another road trip!! Off to Utah....one of our favorite places and to see two sons, 3 grandkids, one expecting daughter-in law, one sister, and another brother....and one granddaughter's baptism! The first day there, David was ready to get to work on Scott's garage, and so was Fos and Nathan. They love to helpout, using tools, staying out of the way when needed, picking up things for Grandpa, and they stay right there for as long as the project goes! Very cute boys!
On the Friday afternoon we headed up to Salt Lake City to meet up with Brian and see where he works. then we went for lunch. Here's a selfie in front of the Salt Lake Temple.....where, you ask? See the angel?
Here's Brian in one of the cubicles where he works in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building.
The Church grounds are gorgeous!
We had to get a picture here even if we weren't in wedding attire.
Saturday morning we worked in the garage getting Scott's work benches in and doing some organizing and cleaning. It felt good to get that much done.
Those cute little helper boys!
Saturday afternoon was the baptism. She looked like an angel and I'm certain that she felt the specialness of the ordinance.
After the baptism, many friends from Kaysville, and family came to the house for some great food and visiting.
That evening, Brian and I went to a concert in Salt Lake with the Utah Symphony Orchestra playing video game music. It was part of Comicon Conference so there were many people dressed up in any character you can think of from all different media. Too bad we didn't sneak some pictures of some. Here's a not very good picture of us before the event. Brian got some better shots.
It was a very fun evening with Brian, and the music was pretty awesome.
Sunday evening we went up to Herriman to visit with Jim and LeAnn, Marci, and Aubrey and Robert. So fun to catch up with their lives, and meet Robert, Aubrey's new husband. And hear their story....always fun.
They have a great, big backyard.
On Monday, David went to Riverton to Brian's other place of work and went for lunch.
And Monday, I went with Jennifer to the BYU Motion Picture Studio, where she is helping paint the murals for the new Provo City Center Temple...old tabernacle. That was really fun to see! What a neat experience for her! Then we looked around the site a bit, where they film some church history movies and videos. Looks like Kirtland.
Then Jennifer and I and Finn went shopping....always fun! Then to Jennifer's house for awhile and then back to Scott and Elisha's for dinner. Aaron and Angie's kids were with us because Mike and Jennifer are taking care of them while the parents are in Hawaii.
We had fun sharing the big bubbles with them even though it was lightly raining! It didn't pop the bubbles though. Will loved making the bubbles for Piper and Finn.
OnTuesday, I helped Elisha paint the upstairs hall, took Fos to kindergarten, and then met Scott for lunch near his work.
Happy little boy and worth the quarter to see his delight! Then we packed up and left after Brian got home from work, driving to Boise where we stayed the night. It was a great trip! Thanks Scott and Elisha for letting us hang out with you a while!
