Our week in Utah!











This post is way overdue however with my state of mind right now I am lucky to even be thinking about it and get it done ever.  Back at the beginning of June the kids and I went to Utah for MANY reasons.  First of all we were able to be at Taryns baptism.  It was so wonderful to spend this time with her and the family and it was so sweet to witness.  She was the only baptism in her ward so we were the only ones in the room, family and close friends.  What an intimate experience.  Second, that evening was Sheas dance recital.  She was so good and she looked like a true princess.  She got some flowers after it was done and you would have thought that she won the lottery. She glowed carrying those around.   Then on Sunday we journeyed to Layton to watch Creed get blessed.  It was so nice to see all the family together and Jonathan and Jaimie did a great job.  Then we went to Logan to spend a couple days with my uncle, aunt, and cousins.  Needless to say that there was non-stop laughter and a whole lotta good food!  There were some firsts like kite flying and rock skipping the weather was amazing.  I miss seeing everyone and being able to bond it is nice to get all the cousins together and to spend some quality time united.  The best part was driving up American Fork canyon and seeing the majestic beauty.  I often forget how beautiful this world is.  Don't get me wrong I love living in AZ but the outdoors don't compare to Utah.  I really think that I could live in the mountains with streams and some good old fishing!  Thanks Jerianne for the hospitality and letting us ruin your place for a week.  I miss you all, all the time!
