Salt Lake City

We drove to Utah on July 5th. The kids were actually very well behaved in the car. Thank goodness for portable DVD players! On Sunday we just relaxed and had fun catching up with Adam, Nicole, Madi, and Avery. On Monday we had our first big outing of the trip. We took the kids and cousin Madison to downtown Salt Lake to show them the Temple. To be honest the kids didn't seem to care too much about seeing the temple when we were there, but Connor talked a lot about it after and even shared the experience of seeing the Temple with his Primary class. (This is a big deal because as most of you know, he is extremely shy and never speaks in Primary.) We also took a quick trip into the visitor' s center. Madison and Connor were very interested in all of the paintings on the walls of Christ and prophets, and also liked seeing the large statue of Christ.

Too bad they are cousins...they'd be a cute couple.

It was a hot day, so while Ryan was cooling down the car we found a nearby curb in the shade to enjoy some cold juice boxes!
