Blog catch-up: Utah Vacation

I'm so behind on blogging again! Life is starting to slow down a little bit so hopefully I can start to catch up. Back in May we went to Utah for my little sister's wedding. We had such a great vacation. We had a super busy schedule and didn't really have any downtime on the trip, but it was great. We were able to do so much! We haven't been back to Utah together since we lived there when we were first married and it was so fun to go back. Utah is growing like crazy and we were amazed at all of the changes that have occurred over the past 6 years. It's so beautiful in the summer too. Some highlights of the trip included the wedding festivities of course, a trip to BYU, and catching up with lots of old friends. We are so grateful for all the kind friends and family who hosted us, fed us, and spent time with us. It was so wonderful to see all of you!

My finger is in this picture but here are cousins enjoying BYU creamery ice cream. They were so excited they were chanting BYU as they ate. I love going back to visit BYU, it's such a special place. Lots of memories there!

Ok, I'm the worst at pictures, I didn't even get the whole cougar in my picture. Oops. t

Wedding day!

The happy couple!

 Siblings!

I told Russell to run for the garter and he won..

He was pretty disappointed when he found out what it was and ended up giving it back. 

Post wedding lunch..we love that Thomas (and the bride)

 

 We didn't do a good job documenting most of our reunions with friends and family, but we did get this one with Ricardo's cousin and his aunt who was in town from Brazil!

And this one with Uncle Trent at my favorite, Kneader's

We spent Memorial Day boating on Utah Lake with my brother-in-law's family and ended the day with a family reunion for my dad's family. It was a great day!

We love Utah in the summer!
