The last three days of our trip we spent with Grandma and Grandpa in Salt Lake City. We drove through Nevada to get there. It was a very long and boring drive from Reno to Salt Lake. We did stop at the Reno Temple but I can't find those pictures. We were so glad to get to Grandma's house. On Friday we skied at Brighton while Abby had a special day with Grandma, Bryce and Lillie.
Madison has gotten so good she did the bunny hill once and then said "this is too small lets go higher". I love my little skier who always tries to challenge herself!
We spent the rest of the weekend before heading home with cousins. We got to meet our newest cousin Addie. Hailey and Abby loved holding her. Lillie is no longer the baby of the family.
While we were there everyone came over for dinner and we celebrated my birthday and all the April birthdays. The kids love going over to my old elementary school and playing on the playgrounds there. While the boys were at priesthood the girls and Bryce played.
The main reason of the trip was so Blake could go to Priesthood Session of Conference with Grandpa Newbold. Uncle Brett, Uncle Kerry, Lance and Grant were also able to get tickets to go. Such a cool experience for Blake and Todd to see the Prophet speak in the conference center for the first time. Such a good looking group of men!
Sunday we drove home. It was cool to be able to hear conference on the car ride home. We drove straight through and got home in time to get ready for bed. I can't believe how much we fit in the back of the car. We were looking forward to not unpacking our suitcases from the car every night or two. We did love being able to see whatever we wanted and whenever we wanted without school, work and sport schedules.Such a great trip with lots of fun memories!
