Utah trip...

We made it to Utah in a day.
The next morning we had Ella's baptism...Ella is the oldest of our 16 grand children, and the first to be baptized.
Shannon, Dave & Ella
Nessa, Sean & Gracie. Kinda fuzzy, 'cause I really shouldn't have been taking the picture in the chapel.
Dave and Shannon took us to a Japanese restaurant. Here Ron is teaching Cole some mad chopstix skills.
Sunday Morning was Cooper's blessing. Afterward, we had yummy lasagna dinner at Shannon & Daves.
Then Ron & I drove up to see the Brigham City Temple which will open next month.
We were able to see my newest great-niece, Harper, Dan & Heather's newest addition. Isn't she beautiful? So sweet!
The next morning we got up early and drove down to Erin and Ben's. Nathan, Ron and Tyler are looking at a Lego magazine.
Here is cute little Erin. She's just as tiny as ever, except for the basket ball right out in front and man is she carrying that baby low. Must be a boy. :) The Utah part of our trip was a whirlwind, but I'm glad we were able to fit in as much as we did in such a short amount of time. After we left Erin's we headed to California. But first a little detour..."just ten minutes off the freeway" to Bryce Canyon.....
A great shot of Chris & the canyon.
We made time to stop and visit the DelToro's in St. George. Their new home is lovely. What a great family...we miss them being in our ward already! Now on to California!
