Our Trip to Utah

I have more pictures to share of our vacation to Utah, but I am having trouble with downloading some of the pictures we took. So this is a little journal entry of our trip, photos to come at a later date. We spent 10 days in Utah and it was a whirlwind from start to finish. We got to visit with some of Tyler's cousins, Brian & Chris McAdams hosted us at their home in Lehi along with Clint & Jayna McAdams. It was so fun to see them and catch up. Then the rest of my family arrived and we visited with more relatives on my side of the family. My Grandparents, Marvin & Marilyn Johnson both turned 80 this year, so we celebrated at my Great-Uncle's ranch down in Emery, Utah with most of the family there. I've added a link to our blog. We got to hike, see the famous Rochester Petroglyph Panel, shoot, ride horses, ride 4-wheelers, and enjoy the scenery and company of family. It is a hunting lodge/retreat so there was something for everyone. Then we headed back to Salt Lake for my younger brother, Matt's wedding festivities. My cousin, Katy hosted a great shower in her beautiful newly rennovated home. I got to have lunch with some of my old college buddies, it was so fun to visit with them! We had the "rehersal dinner" at my family's cabin. Then the moment we've all been waiting for...Matt and Chelsea were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple. We are so excited to have Chelsea join our family, she also comes from a large family and she is great with children, my kids adore her already! We are looking forward to celebrating some more at their reception in Oklahoma next week, right after the Vaclaw Family Fireworks! Party, party, party!
