Our Trip to Utah

The open house at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple


We went to the temple as part of our family reunion. It was such a fun time, we were able to have my whole family together for three days. We stayed at the dell and were able to hang out a lot and enjoy each other.
The temple was so nice it is on a hill, close to the mountain. The Celestial room was so beautiful. We love that our kids could go in and see this beautiful Temple.

A day at Lagoon






We went to Lagoon with the Buss'. It was fun to watch the little ones as they were experiencing things for the first time. Spencer loved the Bat, which is the only roller coaster that he was tall enough to go on. The big kids were fearless and loved all of the roller coasters. It was nice because the three big kids could go on all of the rides. There were a lot of rides that all of us could go on. I think that this was our first trip where we all could go on rides together and not leave someone sitting with the little ones. We had a Fun and hot day at Lagoon. (Disneyland in Utah)



Fishing in the canyon


We spent some time fishing, But we only came back with fish stories.




Hanging around

These are pictures from the reunion. We had a great day hanging out in the Dell. My mom rented a bouncer for the kids and the kids bounced all day long. The adults played cards together. It was such a great day. The kids did a talent show and got to camp in the Dell that night.

This Summer our family went to Utah and we did a lot of hanging around.






We had so much fun running and playing in the dell.

We had a great time in Utah. It was fun to be there a little longer than usual. We stayed with the Buss' and with the Austins. They were so nice to let us stay with them. It was great to have some days for the kids to get to play with their cousins and get to know them better.
