Utah

We went to Utah this last week.  I had just gotten home from girls camp (where my phone had fallen in the toilet and stopped working).  The plan was for me to drive with the kids to Vegas on Sunday and then to Salt Lake on Monday and Matt would fly up on Wednesday.  But Matt was really concerned with me driving alone and no phone.  I had super faith that my phone would be restored to its original self and function fully, so I didn't want to buy a new phone.  We remembered that we had an iPad with Verizon capabilities.  So Sunday after church, we got the "Ox out of the Myer" and stopped in to have the iPad activated.  Me and the kids left from the Verizon store and headed out to for Las Vegas.  In the mean time Matt took his mom and niece and nephew to the airport to head back to Utah.  I am so grateful Peggy was able to help with my kids while Matt and I were both gone due to work and girls camp.  I messaged Matt a few times to let him know we were doing fine on our drive.

I didn't take many pictures, because I felt extremly awkward pulling out this huge iPad and saying SMILE!!! However I did take this cute picture of all the kids (Minus Hannah, she was at EFY) eating in my mom's apartment.

And when Matt came, I got a few more of Elena's Butterfly she made out of mud.  She named it Muddyposa (Mariposa, is Spanish for butterfly).

John has this amazing garden, I wished I would have gotten some pictures of it. The kids loved playing in it and filling their mouths full of berries and other deliciousness.

I love this cute picture of Johnny, Cody and Elena with Grandma.  We had a wonderful time together, sure wished I had more pictures to prove it!!!
