I really need to hurry and update my blog before I forget everything we did. I can't believe it has already been a month since we were there.
We got into Utah on Tuesday and got settled into our hotel. Cirdan needed to get a haircut and buy a white shirt for the wedding so that night we went to the mall. There was a little train that drove through the mall so Cirdan rode on it with Ella and Jett. While we waited for Cirdan's hair to get cut we went to Claires where Kaiya bought herself these black glasses. She wanted to wear them everywhere we went. I had to say no a few times because they just got annoying after a while. I am glad she is comfortable enough to do her own thing though.
On Wednesday we decided to head over to Provo and go show the kids BYU and go to the Creamery for lunch. After eating we got the kids some ice cream. I never realized how good that ice cream is! I don't eat ice cream very much but that was goooooood!
Ella really wanted to get a picture with the Y on the mountain. She enjoyed watching out the car window to see if she could find a letter. We drove around and found a spot in a church parking lot to take some pictures. The kids were getting restless so we found a park for them to play at. After being there for about 10 minutes and having Jett fall on the bar and cut his lip we decided to go to another park. Not because of the hurt lip but it was ghetto and the people walking past were...interesting....
We found another park and played there with the kids for a while.
That night we went and picked up Cirdan's grandma to go to dinner with her. It was nice to see her. After dinner she came back to our hotel to visit. It was fun hearing some of the stories about Cirdan's grandpa and family. Jett has never met her and the last time Ella and Kaiya saw her was when we were down in Utah for Nathan's wedding in May 2004. She had some pictures of Cirdan when he was little that she gave to him. There is a picture in it when he was a baby which is the only picture he has seen when he was that little. It was really special.
The kids found some ants to watch. Jett wanted to stomp on them and pick them up.
