Last leg of the trip

The Whimers were all here, and Casey was back.

We had a few days left to get it all in before heading back home!

The Whitmers had never been to Lagoon.

The kids were excited for a second round!

First, I think the number 1 thing they wanted to do was check

out Zac Efron at East High!

Hey, Sharpay!

I wish I could see who cut Lane off, LOL!

A glimpse into his teenage driving years, yikes.

All sweaty and tuckered out.

Casey took the big kids up to the Y.

And relaxed at the rec center.

I miss that place so much!!!

They played some major pickleball the last couple of hours.

And ended our trip at non other than, Leatherby's. 
I miss that place so much, too!!!

With many hands, packing up the house took no time at all.

Loved having the Whitmers join us for a bit!

I couldn't believe the month was over.
We truly enjoyed every second we had.
An experience we will never forget, that is for sure!

Goodbye Utah house!
You were good to us.
Broken shower head that ran all night long, wasp infested playhouse,
propane leaking stove and all. 

Ha. don't get me wrong.
I would stay there again in a heartbeat. 

We had Anna and Amber in our car on the way home. 
I think the kids were ok with that:)

I loved finding these selfies on the ipad a few months later.

Lunch break in Kanab. 
The drive home went smoothly.

Minus no inside eating OR open bathrooms.
A lot had changed since we left.
Peeing behind gas stations was an excitement. 

I will never quite understand how our world got so out of
control over this virus. 

 

Nothing like pulling up into your own home.
We sure missed it!

Exploring some more!

It was such a treat to have fruit trees in our front yard!

One of the things I really wish I had at home.

There were 3 apricot trees dripping with fruit!

The ground got most of them.

On the other side of the house were pears.

We had a few days with just us before Casey and the rest of the Whitmer's came.
We sure made the best of it!

We showed them around BYU.
Luckily we were experts by now, thanks to Stephanie!

You can barely see the "Y" to the right of the tree on the mountain behind them.

Unlike the Alamo, there IS a basement in the Wilkinson Center!
And even better than a bike, there is a bowling alley!

Thanks to covid, we had the place to ourselves.

I got everyone settled at the house, then when to Pleasant Grove

for the BEST MASSAGE OF MY LIFE!

Purify Wellness Center had been on my radar, thanks to Just Ingredients on instagram.

Truly, a magical place.

I ended my visit in the salt cave.

If I only would have thought to book this earlier in the month so
I could have gone back! 

Grabbed myself some sushi before heading back.

I needed to document our daily lunch making ritual.

The kids had it down solid.
Every morning after breakfast we would get all the fixings out 
for sandwiches. We we would load up the
cooler bags with granola bars, chips and such, and be ready for our days adventure!

We have never eaten so many sandwiches in our lives in that 1 month!
But with Grandma Sycamore bread, nobody was complaining!

We drove up to SnowBird for a fun filled day on the "slopes".
We had a pass that let us do all the activities we wanted in 3 hours.
I thought we would be done earlier than that, but nope!
These kids kept cruising until the last minute!

Love my cute lift buddy.

I love it at the top of this tall mountain.

So peaceful and happy everyone was enjoying themselves.

These 2 girls are like sisters to my kids and do so much for us.

Grateful they were able to experience this with us!

I saw an Iceberg restaurant on the way home and you better
believe I screeched into a parking spot! Why does UT have the best food places?

Wednesday Darl, Miche, Aaron and Avery would arrive by dinner time.

We took the girls to Splash Summit since it was close to the house and we could easily 
get home quick when they arrived.

This girl chilled in the chair for a bit with snacks.

So of course I joined her:)
