Well I'm back! My trip to Utah was great! Sorry it took so long to post but you know how that goes sometimes!
I'll first share the highlights of my trip! Then on with the pictures. Look out! There are a lot!
*When we arrived in ceder city on Friday night there was SNOW on the ground! It was like 18 degrees outside but we didn't care, before my dad stopped the car we were outside! Can you tell were from San Deigo?! (Aaron and Evan said when they were playing in the snow people who were driving gave them weird looks!)
*On Saturday we went to my cousin Jenny's house. We visited and played in the snow! We had a ton of fun!
*Sat afternoon we went to Jenny's daughters baptism. She was to exited and happy. At the church she gave everyone hugs! She was sooo sweet. After the baptism we had a dinner with a bunch of family. Once again we played in the snow! It was great to see all of you!
*Sat night we went to my uncle David's house to pick up Ryan! (David is my mom's youngest brother) (Ryan came down on sat and stayed till Sunday)we then arrived at my Aunt Susan and Uncle Dave's house! (My dad's sister is Susan) (They live about three hours away from ceder city).
*Sunday morning can you guess what I did with my brothers and cousin Josh?? Played in the snow! (And sorry if you think that is breaking the Sabbath or something but hey we did sacrifice! We wanted to go sledding but my mom wouldn't let us. We even tried to tell her we wouldn't have fun at all (I guess that would be hard to do...But still!)and we would sing church songs but......My mom didn’t really go for that!)
* Sunday evening after church all of our family came over for a big dinner! It was so much fun! ALL my little cousins adore me and I adore them! ALL of my cousins are adults except one who is 13 (Who lives far away)so I mostly spend my time with the little kids! I play with them give them rides on my back, take pics of them and I LOVE them! And another exiting event happened when my cousin Brad brought home his girlfriend Stephanie and what was on her finger?? A ring! So that was exiting that now my cousin brad is getting married in April!
*Monday....Was a busy but fun day! We first went to the Draper Utah temple open house! (It was beautiful!) We then went up to sun dance ( were my dad, bros, and cousin were skiing and snowboarding) to pick up mt cousin Josh who had fell while snow boarding and hurt his wrist. We walked around the site for a while and had fun doing that. It was so pretty! Then my uncle David came over for dinner. We had FHE at 8:30 and it lasted till 10:00! We had soooooo much fun! We had the lesson and My Aunt told some memories about my Grandma Mary Alice. (She died from cancer when my Bro Ryan was a little baby.) Then we read jokes from readers digest talked and laughed! And we made some really good memories we'll never forget! So to my family who was there the word "Fairly" and "Light bright" will always be in are funniest memories! We also won't forget Aunt Susan's Prayer! lol!
*Tuesday wasn't really a highlight because we had to leave! But we had a great time with everyone and were so glad we could come even thought it was last minute!
Me Sat Morning in the snow! I am throwing snow and it's falling on me in the pic.
Aaron and Evan build a giant snowball or part of a snow man...or something!

And well..........This might have been the most exiting part of the trip for some people in my family. (Not me!) Going to Taco Time.

We had a great time!

Aaron was telling us about that! Did u know Bro & Sis Gillite got lost up there too? They went skiing off the path and it was night! They thought they were going to have to spend the night but someone found them I guess. It was really cold too!
Wow! You covered so much in that post. Maybe we should make Dad some Mexi-fries for Valentines' Day.
