Utah Fun

We left the campground and lake and drove to Reno where we spent the night with my former BYU roommate. The next day we drove to Springville, UT where we spent the weekend with Nathan's brother and his wife and 5 kids.

Uncle Morgan (visiting from Florida) maintains his reputation as the favorite uncle by playing with the kids. He played tag games outside, told stories or played computer games with them. Here he is playing Kings Quest II with 9 of the 12 kids.
 Kylie and Madalyn pass a Sunday afternoon crocheting with their cousins. I loved walking into the family room and seeing children quietly working away. The rest of the drive home the girls crocheted little dresses and skirts for dolls of various sizes. 
 Devouring delicious homemade ice cream!

 Monday we went to a creek to play.


 Makenna showing her splits. She may be chubby but she's flexible.

 Tuesday I took the kids around Provo, showing them the apartments I lived in and the Provo Temple.

 Spencer took this picture of us walking around BYU. It was the first time most of the kids have seen this beautiful campus and they loved it. I hope they can attend college there.

We also went to Temple Square for their first time and quickly saw a few sites. Here they enjoyed dressing up and dancing in the church history museum. After Salt Lake it was up to Wyoming where we began our week trip back to North Carolina.

I didn't know you were in Provo. You should have stopped by! Glad your trip went so well and you saw so many cool things.
