Utah

David was not able to take any trips with us this summer so I decided to take one without him. I talked Sandra into taking the drive to Utah with me. I drove more on this trip than I had in my entire life!!!!! I was proud of myself-soooo much driving. Sandra really saved me on the way home, I think I only managed 4 of the 6 hours. 

We staying with David's Uncle Ivan and Aunt Jolene in Manti and it was great! It was fun getting to know them! We went kyakcing, to the Manti Pageant, talked with Grandpa Star and did a little four wheeling. The kids loved getting to know their Kolstad cousins. 

Then we left Sandra in Manti and headed to Bountiful to see Emily's family. It was so fun to get to know her kids and husband. We got to see Lacey and her twins also. We didn't do a whole lot-just played and chatted, how I love my friends. I did take the kids to Music and the Spoken Word-the girls first time. I had Holly lie to three different people about her age! She's close enough though! The kids were too grumpy to do too much at temple square so we went back to the house.

The weather was beautiful, the Lord blessed us with safety and a functioning car, it was a great trip. I think I have the Utah bug out of my system for a while but in a few years I would love to go back with David and stay in Manti again.
