First Day 2019

Last of Utah

Dad took the kiddos shooting.  Mimi preferred the rifle because the result is more accurate. 

This is the giant puddle that Greg drove through and he thought it was pretty cool.

Last few moments at the lake

Leaving Utah 2019

Years ago we put this place on our to-visit list, and we finally made it!
Dinosaur National Monument is so fun.
When they discovered all the dinosaur fossils, the main archaeologist decided to stop digging and just build a structure around them and have people come and see them. 

Here's the giant wall of fossils embedded in the rock

There are more fossils around the grounds as well. 

After we left the dinosaurs, we drove to Omaha, NE and had the yummiest dinner food at Don & Millie's.  We aren't always successful but we try to find fun, local places to eat.

This place fell in our laps!  A detour forced us off the road and practically in their parking lot!  We were SO happy... we went back for seconds... we had the Cheese Frenchee. If you're ever in Nebraska, find a location if you can :)  Here's a description on RoadFood.com...mmmmmm! 

Then we headed to the Church Historical Sites at Winter Quarters.  The stories of the Pioneers are beautiful and moving.  I'm so glad we finally visited.

A few more photos, this time with cousins...

 Driving home through SLC, we visited with Greg's grandma, sister and her family.

 But on the way to UT we stopped to see my sister and her family. 

 So happy for a cupcake with sprinkles! 

And a visit with Greg's sister in Provo.

In SLC we visited the Celebration of Life monument to see my dear friend's name who we miss a lot.  She donated her body to BYU last year. 

 Helping Grandma with some chores! 

 Puzzles, we love puzzles! 

And a sing-along.
