Saturday at Temple Square


On Saturday we were able to meet our very good friends Dave and Sheri and cute boys in Salt Lake at Temple Square. We really wanted to go up there one more time before we move away and also really wanted to meet up with our good friends, so it worked out perfectly. The weather couldn't have been more beautiful! We took the kids to see the Christus and that was really neat. 




Katelyn kept saying, "Jesus, owie!" She noticed the "owies" in his hands, feet and side. 

We got some neat pictures outside by the temple. The temple and the grounds were stunning as usual.






The kids had a great time playing together! 



We walked through the Church History Museum and the kids had a fun time playing around in the area designed for kids. Then we finished off the visit at Crown Burgers and had a great lunch together. 



We love these guys and are so glad that we squeezed in one last visit with them before we shove off! 




2 weeks until our move! Scary!

Another chapter comes to a close....


**Disclaimer: Please forgive me for the volume of pictures in my next few posts. But this is a busy/exciting time for us and we have so many experiences and people we want to remember. So be forewarned, lots of pictures ahead!


It is that time of year. Graduation is upon us at the end of this week. I'm so proud of Justin for completing a masters degree. It's been intense and very rewarding!



We have been enjoying the closing socials, the "lasts" of everything. It is a very bitter sweet thing for us. The MBA program has been a life changing experience....not only for Justin, but for me too. We've learned so much and have met so many incredible people. 

The MBA closing social was a wonderful evening....great food and friends. Justin received the big globe for the Hawes Scholarship. It's mighty pretty!
