Book ending the family reunion was the rest of the Utah trip. We started out with a layover in Houston. Because it was so long ago, I can't remember if the trip was smooth or if we got bumped. We don't usually fly through Houston from Columbia so I'm guessing something odd happened, but who knows?!
I know we spent enough time in Houston to buy some tasty, but very expensive, empanadas.
We got to Utah and took our traditional photo in front of the panoramic photo.
Baylie loves to lay on the soft Utah grass.
I have no idea in what order the following events occurred.
We climbed into bed with Grammy.
We went shoe shopping at the Traverse Mountain Outlets.

We did baptisms at the Provo City Center temple.
The boys went fishing.

We had a visit from the former Elder Brigham Black, one of our favorite South Carolina elders who happens to be from Blanding.
Not sure what is happening here, but it was part of a dinner at Erik and Shanelle's

I have the best parents. I love how much they love each other. Grandad let me take this cute cow home. She now has a bell and I call her Clarabell.
Playing Farkle.
After all the family fun it was time to head home again. We were able to introduce David to the awesomeness that is Garrett's popcorn - even in Houston. And apparently our car was packed to the brim.
Thank heavens for flight benefits or we would never see our family.
