Trip to Utah

One day, Jarin and I picked up the kids from school and drove to the airport. Jarin pulled up to the curb and kissed me goodbye and I asked Elle to come with me while Jarin got our suitcases out of the back of the van. She was so surprised she was scared. We played a little guessing game and I thinks she guessed every place BUT Utah. So, I finally told her. Then the fun began.

When we arrived it was snowing!! So awesome for these Florida girls!! She promptly made a snowman with her cousins when the sun came up the next morning.


Just in case you're wondering, this is where I grew up. Sometimes I forget how amazing the mountains are, but each time I return I am reminded how truly majestic they are! I heart the rocky mountains.
We haven't lived really close to any temples, so I really wanted Elle to see the temples while we were in Utah. Here she is with her cute cousins at the Salt Lake Temple.
We loved our time visiting with family. Josh and Whitney just had Beautiful Rose. This was our first time meeting 3 of their children -and it was so much fun!!!

Bil and KT just welcomed sweet Eli into the world. They are some of the most attentive parents I've ever seen!! Congrats Bil and KT!!
