Utah trip

Haley flew out to Utah for a girls camp and we drove to Utah to pick her up and visit my Mom. We did not have  a lot of time there, but we managed to pack in a lot.

Eric took Ruby and Lucy on the hike up to Timpanogos caves. The girls had a blast and Lucy took like  200 photos (trees, sky ect.) with her camera.


We went to temple square. If you have not been there recently they have a full model of the temple with the sides taken off so you can see all the rooms and where they are located. We spent a lot of time pushing all the buttons that would explain each room. The girls were really excited to see the rooms where weddings are done.


I have heard about the acoustics at the tabernacle but this was the 1st time I saw them demonstrate the pin drop from the pulpit. The pioneers were such awesome engineers.


We picked Haley up from her camp and just like last year she had a wonderful experience and made tons of new friends.

This year we have really seen Haley come out of her shell and be more social. She is hilarious and so much fun, it was great to see all the girls swarm around her laughing about what a fun time they all had.


We also drove down to see Eric's 99 year old Grandpa. His hearing has really gone bad since the last time we visited so it was hard for the girls (ok myself included) not to giggle as Eric screamed as loud as he could asking Grandpa questions and Grandpa calmly would reply "What?"
I can't believe how well he is doing overall for being 99.

Jolene just explained to me who can attend temple weddings. No wonder the girls were intrigued by those rooms. I am too! :-)
