It has been a while since I have posted. We have been
without a computer for about a month now. And before that we were in various
stages of making our old laptop keep limping along. Well now we are back with our
bran new Sony Vaio.
Sony has been good
to us and so we decided to stick with what we knew. I bought a new computer desk because our old
one wouldn’t fit this new larger desktop. We are still learning how to use
everything since the laptop we had was about 7 years old which in computer
years is about 50 years old. Like since when can I get apps on my
computer! Where have I been? Haha
Anyway we aren’t just back in the computing world we just
got back from our trip to Utah! It was a
2 ½ week trip to paradise. We had a really good time and especially loved
showing everything to Viktoriia.
car seat arm covers are the perfect rocklond sizes shoes.
We started off in Las Vegas for our good friends Ross and
Illiana’s wedding. I was a really out of
it and never put my memory card in my camera so I don’t have hardly any
pictures form the temple. But it was a beautiful wedding and the temple was a
breath of fresh air after spending three days wandering in and out of
casinos.
Our good friends Keith and Julie were there and really
hooked us up with a great place to stay. We had so much fun spending time with
them and their 2 kids.
Then we went to Cedar city.
We saw a gymnastics meet and toured the campus.
John, Austin and I took Viktoriia Skiing. It took her a while to get the hang of it but by the end we were going down bigger and bigger slopes.
We went to Brice canyon,
and sledding,
and best of all we went to the Grand Canyon.
It was about a 5 hr
drive from Cedar but well worth the drive.
We took our time getting there and enjoyed
all of the stops along the way.
We stayed in Williams AZ and tehn drove back thru the canyon
the next day. It was all full of fog and you couldn’t see a thing!
Soon it was time to go up to SLC.
My sister Emily and her
3 kids and my Aunt Dianne drove out from Denver, Co to join in our visit.
Since they were staying at my parents house we stayed with
Johns aunt Sandra. She was so sweet to take us in. Knoxx slept on the floor and every night
would wake up under Rocky’s bed.
Hill air force base.
We went to Park city,
down town SLC,
temple square,
My best friend from high school Chelsea came over with her
two kids for a visit.
and the best day was
when we went to BYU. Rocklond and john
didn’t come with us this day and I felt really bad about that because it was a
really cool day. We went on a golf cart
tour. Had lunch, listened to my brother, Billy, give a small performance with his
horn quartet. Then my mom and dad watched the kids and Emily, Dianne, Viktoriia
and I went and saw the exhibit sacred gifts which is a collection of famous
paintings of the savior from around the world. It was really good. Then Billy came home with us and we spent
the weekend hanging out with him.
One day I organized a sister’s activity. We had 9 girls
there who were all related either by blood or marriage or exchange student. We all went and got our nails done at a little
beauty school in Taylorsville.
At night we all enjoyed playing Dominion, and eating ice
cream and cheesy fries.
All to soon it was time to come home to Houston. We were so
sad to leave, but ready to get back to our own beds and house. The next time we go to Utah will be when my
sister comes home from her Mission.
