Our Whirlwind Trip
We just recently got home from a six day whirlwind vacation to visit Rudy’s family. I suppose a better way to describe the trip is to call it a family reunion since this was the first time in nearly six years that we have all been together again. I even saw some of Rudy’s extended family that I had only met a couple of times and he and I have now known each other for 14 years!
It was definitely a jam packed family extravaganza with the baptism of a niece, the baby blessings of two nephews, and many long and enjoyable conversations as we all caught up on each others lives. I was even able to hang out with my younger sister and cousin who are attending BYU.
Eventually I will post some pictures of all the good times we had, but first I need to collect some photos from the ones who were snapping memories all weekend. However, here are a few pictures of us on Temple Square in downtown Salt Lake City. Can you tell how windy it was?

I was wondering why you seemed so quite these past few days. Welcome back!

I went to SLC several times as a single gal, but the husband and kids have never been. This really makes me want to take them! I hope you had a great time.

Glad you had a fun time! We are hoping to do a roadtrip of our own at the end of the month. It’s tough to believe it’s been two years since we were in Utah.
