Trip to Utah

The week before school started we made a trip to Utah. We were able to visit with Craig and Angie and their kids. They had come to bring them to BYU. Rick's mom, and Barry, were also out from Pennsylvania. We stayed at Darla's house. She was a wonderful host, feeding us out her garden and providing all sorts of fun things to do. And Cheri still lives nearby.
Michelle and KC moved back to Utah from Texas the day we arrived so we were able to see them and help out. One day while Rick was doing some heavy lifting I took the kids (except Kate who though it would be more fun to go with her Dad) to Thanksgiving point, just down the mountain from the Holmes new home. My cousin Lori, and her 3 kids met us there.
Below is a friend, Luke, Drew, Dane, and Paige.

We locked them up at threw out the keys! JK.

It was $1 day that day (of course I had to find a deal), so we saw the dinosaurs, rode ponies, and saw the farm animals (in the sweltering Utah heat).

How sweet is she? There were even $.50 ice cream cone so the kids really scored that day.
