#flashbackfriday aka catching up after a blogging break part 3

We celebrated the final stretch on our drive to Salt Lake City by blasting Utah's epic state song to drown out our whiney toddler and screaming baby... it didn't work.

Presenting UTAH in a bunch of pictures out of order:

Jack got to go fishing with the boys.
 


 
Zoo with cousins

 
 
I wish we lived closer to these cute cousins!
 

Grandpa Jack Hall meets David
 

We hiked Adams Canyon and it was beautiful.
 
 
Making cookies with Grandma
 

Jack became obsessed with bugs while we were in Utah. We hunted for potato bugs and snails every single day, and since Jack was too scared to pick up the snails, that means that I hunted for snails every. single. day.




Jack got to mow Grandpa's lawn twice while we were there and he was in heaven.
We went boating with Spencer's family and James.
 
 
 
 
Grandma held David on the shore the entire day. She deserves an award!
 

For me to actually set foot in Provo means that I really love James! ;)
 
We redeemed ourselves the next day by going to Logan.
We hiked the first bit of Bonneville Shoreline Trail (my happy place), ate Fredrikos and Aggie Ice Cream, and walked around campus.
 
I love my little Aggies!
 
 


 After 5 weeks on the road, we were ready to make the last 18 hour stretch and to get settled in Iowa.
