Utah part 1

Our trip was too quick and lots of driving. It was awesome! It was one of the best and most emotional weekends of my life! We were lucky to have Aurora, our niece come with us. I'm so glad she was able to come! Our main points of the trip were to, drop Melissa off (sigh), go to conference (that was decided before she even picked then to leave), take Aurora with us to see Utah and the sights, and to see our returned missionaries.

We were barely on the road when we saw this cool car!

Our first stop of many, the rest area in Eastern WA, near Yakima.




Aurora was so excited to see Utah and get her picture with the sign.




Melissa getting ready for her new adventure!

This is one of my favorite reasons to go to Utah, to see this boy.. I know he tells me he is a man, but he is like a son to me, so therefore, he can't be a man, right?! Our returned missionary, J.C. Price. We practiced saying his "real" name the week before. haha I loved our texts the week before, one week until we come, I'm so excited, etc, and then on the day of , Have you guys left yet? It was a little weird at first seeing him in his "street clothes" and being able to give him a hug, but that didn't last long! He lives close to the Logan temple, so he took us to go see it. We got to see him Friday afternoon for a couple of hours and then all day Saturday and Sunday! So Fun!!
