Our Trip To Utah - Part Two

Ok, here is part 2! (I'm really sad that I didn't have my camera out more around my family... but we did have a great time together!)
So, we left Wadsworth around 10:00 Tuesday morning (June 29th) and drove about 13 hours! We made it to Omaha, Nebraska and stayed the night, and were on the road again by 6:00 the next morning! We pulled into Morgan around 7:30 Wednesday night! WHAT A LONG DRIVE! But, my sweet mom and sister JoDee, and my adorable nephew Brody were there to meet us!!! I haven't seen Brody since he was born, and now he's almost 9 months old! He is SOOOOOO stinking cute!

We kind of just relaxed and got readjusted to the time change on Thursday. Friday, my cousin Jennifer and her new husband Jake got married in the Salt Lake Temple! It was a great ceremony! I think it was Jake's Bishop, at the time, that helped him get on a mission, that was their sealer! The reception was that night in my Aunt and Uncle's back yard! The whole day was awesome!
This is the best picture I could get of them! Jen's got quite the smile.... but you could really see how happy they both were!
Tom and I waiting for Jen and Jake to come out of the Temple!
My dad and Brody waiting!
Jen was the last of the three of us (cousins that are the same age) to get married! And we took a similar picture at mine and Shae's weddings too! Jen's wedding 7/02/2010 Salt Lake Temple
Shae's wedding 12/03/2004 Bountiful Temple
My wedding 8/20/2008

Saturday, the 3rd, Tom and Savana and I went on a really fun 4-wheeler ride with my aunt Ann and her two girls, Sydney and Jackalynn! Then that night we watch Morgan's Fireworks and did a few of our own!
On Sunday the 4th of July, we had dinner with my brother's in-laws, the Orr family! It was really fun! They have a pool and we swam the night away!
Jason, Tom, and Savana!
Savana's feet pruned SO badly while we were in the water!
All of our feet in the hot tub!

Then, Tom and I went to Wolf Creek Resort in Huntsville and stayed there from Sunday to Wedsnesday! Matt (Ann's husband)'s mom had a time share there that needed to be used, so it was offered to us! Our condo was awesome! We had a great time there! During the time we were there, we had my family pictures taken and we made a trip to Logan to try and deliver a wedding gift (didn't happen), do a session in the Logan Temple (didn't happen - it was closed for cleaning), drop off a box of stuff to Sister Grimnes' family (she is serving here in Ohio), and get my wedding ring fixed! It was a good couple of days!
Then from Thursday morning to Saturday night we spent it with Tom's family in Sandy! We had a really great time! We did so much fun stuff! We went to Seven Peaks, The Bean Museum, Herriman Lake, ate yummy food together and played lots of games! What a great time! Almost Tom's entire family was able to be there the whole time! Then we went back down Sunday night to try and get a family picture taken.... we were never able to get EVERYONE together at the same time to take a picture of the WHOLE family, but we did get a nice one of Wendell and Kathy with all their kids. What a fun weekend!

Sunday night after being at Tom's parents, we met my family at Weber State and watched their annual fireworks display! It was really fun! Brody ABSOLUTELY LOVED the fireworks! They were pretty loud, but he was totally in awe!

The last week we were there... wasn't quite as exciting! I enjoyed spending lots of time with my family, but Tom did homework ALL week. Poor guy! He had like 6 papers to write and several little assignments and quizzes to do. But, Friday night and Saturday we did have a really fun campout at the Campground with my family and Peter & Kaity Dixon came with Kaity's little sister! (I'm really sad that I didn't take any pictures.)
Sunday night, ALL of my family came to my parents' house and we had a yummy dutchoven dinner and played and games and laughed and talked! Something that I've really missed being away for so many years! Thanks Guys!
Then on Monday, our last day there, my Grandpa and Grandma Mecham had a big family dinner/FHE, and almost my WHOLE extend Mecham family was there! Grandma's FHEs are ALWAYS so fun and spiritual! Then after that, my parents, Tom and I, and my three sisters piled in the back of the truck at a drive-in movie to see "Eclipse"!!! It was awesome fun!
We so enjoyed all the time we were able to spend with our families and for all the wonderful memories made! We can't wait till next year to do it again!
We headed out on Tuesday morning, drove to Lincoln, stayed the night, got up Wednesday morning and drove all day! We got back to Wadsworth around 11:30 that night!
What a great summer it has been so far! Hopefully there are still a few more adventures to come before summer is over!
