Utah

 We finished our trip with a couple days in Utah.  We were able to stay with Matt and Linda which the kids LOVE!  The hot tub, Fortnite with Tucker, and Matt and Linda make the visit so fun for them!  We were also able to go to the Saratoga Springs Temple open house.  It was beautiful, peaceful and a great opportunity for our family.  I'm so glad we were able to do that.  Everyone even hiked the Y while we were there.  I was impressed with their determination and good attitudes.  There were also several trips to DI, about 4 different DI's looking for BYU shirts and a specific DVD Kenney has been looking for. We were pretty tired on our way home, but before we left the city we introduced the kids to Jamba Juice and Panda Express, ya know great culinary experiences, haha!



Our first stop was "This is the Place." We thought we were going to Ensign Peak, but this worked too to kill some time.
Damon approves of the hot tub.
Linda pulled out a solo stove to make s'mores.  Every place we went the kids has s'mores.  They hated it, haha!
The view from the temple.

The temple was beautiful.
The kids all really enjoyed being able to walk through the entire temple and not be stuck in a waiting room, the parking lot, or the baptistry.
But she was a little bit tired; there was a lot of walking!
Pretty flowers and pretty girls.
More flowers
The start of the hike
Taking lots of breaks!
Enjoying the view
Forget me nots
We made it to the top!
This valley has definitely changed and getting more crowded.
They were all pretty happy with themselves.
Not surprisingly, Kenney wore a Texas Tech shirt to hike the Y.
Such a pretty time in Utah.
The stairs down to Kenney's and I first apartment.
Yeah everyone was exhausted!
Any chance she gets to write or draw, she takes it.





It does not look as steep as it feels walking down, but it was quite slippery too!
