Visiting Fun

We had such a fun time visiting family and friends while we were in Utah. I told Steve it was one of my favorite trips I have taken because he wasn't there! Now don't get me wrong, we missed him like crazy and wished he could have been there with us, but it was so fun to be able to do whatever I wanted and be able to visit all of my friends and family and not worry about what he wanted to do! Totally selfish, I know, but it really was great!

We went to a really fun kids place called Pirates Cove in Provo with my Grandma Lindsay. The kids loved it and it was so fun to spend time with her. She also got a new little puppy named Molly and the kids LOVED playing with her!


We had a chance to stop by and see Grandpa and Grandma Black (Steve's grandparents). We always love seeing them!
I was so happy to get together with a few of my favorite EFY friends. We were able to meet up at Julie Kaye's mom's house and can I just say it is kid heaven in her back yard? They have a club house, trampoline, water everything and a zip line. Davis went on this thing about 50 times and I had to bribe him to leave. So much fun!
I forgot to take a picture before Heather left, but here is Julie Kaye, Sharon, Fernando and I. These are just some of my favorite people and it had been way too long since I had seen them. I am so happy they took time to get together with us!

I was able to go see my college (freshman, sophmore, and junior years) roomate, Tepoe. This girl and I had so many good times together...our third year of school we moved into a house where we got our own rooms but we would end up sleeping on the floor of each others room because we couldn't sleep by ourselves anymore! She just had her fourth child, Maire, and it was so fun to see her!
My best friend from High School (or should I say surrogate sister?) came over one night. She just had her third daughter, Mckenzie and I was so happy to meet her. The girls had a great time making lego crowns and playing together. Here is Princess Emery and Princess Maddie:

Emery, Maddie, Mckenzie and Cordie. Apparently Davis was being anti-girl this night. I looked really ugly in the picture of Kaylene and I so I am not posting it. But I love her like crazy!

This is a picture of my roomates and a couple girls that we were great friends with from the Cherry House (where I lived at BYU after my mission). Michelle, Terry and I were all speech path majors and spent most of our waking hours together either in class or living at the Cherry House together. We were super lucky to live with Karen too, who put up with us 'speechies'. I loved living with these girls and it was so great to see all of them.
