Utah


We've been talking about going to Utah for conference ever since Hannah turned 8. It's only taken us 3 years to actually go. The trip was too short but we had a great time.

On the way we stopped at Zion. It was a BEAUTIFUL day and although it was crowded because of the St. George Marathon and Conference we had a wonderful day. Here are a few pictures:






Then we continued the rest of the way up to Salt Lake City. Saturday morning we traveled back down to Provo for a little breakfast reunion with my BYU freshman year friends. After losing touch for many years we have reconnected on Facebook. It was so fun to catch up and meet everyone's spouses and kids. A picture of the group:


After the reunion we walked around BYU campus and went to visit Aunt Missy, Uncle Dan, and cousins Lindsay and Ryan. Uncle Drew joined us for dinner at Spaghetti Factory.

We had tickets to the Sunday afternoon conference session. Bill stayed with Sophie while Hannah, Eliza and I attended conference. Eliza was worried she wouldn't be able to sit through the entire session but we were all amazed at how quickly the two hours passed. We felt so lucky to be in the beautiful conference center listening to the words of our prophets. If only I had pictures!

We can't wait for our next trip back to Utah!
