MONDAY - JULY 27th

What an awesome day today is going to be!!! Emily is going to EFY today with Brooke Thompson and Lara Porter. Our started with a yummy hot breakfast at the hotel. What has been so nice is the relaxation we have had on this trip. Usually our trips are scheduled from sun up and sun down so this has been so relaxing....no alarm clocks for this trip! Emily got all packed and we headed down to Provo to meet up with the Thompson's at the Bean Museum. WOW...I have never seen so many stuffed animals in my life. Not the animals you win at the carnival or get from your grandparents....the real ones! From elephants to zebras to bears and hippos.

After the museum we took a quick trip to the Creamery! I didn't know what to expect but it was a way fun place....grill, ice cream, grocery's, yummy bread...what else do you need! It was so busy that Emily had to grab a sandwich and then off to check in for EFY. We all met in the stadium parking lot at BYU. What a relief when Lara, Emily and Brooke were all in the same company and they were rooming right next door to each other!!! They are staying at Heritage Halls in Harris. They are going to have so much fun!!!

After we got the girls off to EFY we went back to the creamery and ate lunch. It was yummy!! On our way back to Salt Lake we stopped at Thanksgiving Point. Our first stop was the Farm Country. Well....we could have done without it but it was still fun.

Then off to the Dinosaur Museum. It was neat to see all the different dinosaurs. I think Andy had more fun playing in the sand then the kids did!!

We have decided that Provo is a place that we can live (or at least think we can). It is so beautiful here!! I am sure come November we would be crying to move back to Mesa since we don't own coats let alone shovels!
