In the West: Utah, Day 1 and a Half

Mountains!



We met up with Ryan Banister, who has been a family friend since serving his mission in Georgia. We ate at a barbecue place called Ruby River in Salt Lake City.

Me, Sadie, and Mommy:



Ryan being a goofball:


Ryan not being a goofball:


We made a mess with the peanuts.


Ryan drove us to the University of Utah, so I could see what it's like.



We stopped at some random park because Sadie was tired of being in her carseat. Check out that lush grass. Woo!



My new little friend:


Blake and Lindsey's place. Lindsey painted those pictures on the wall to match the pillows on the couch. What a creative homemaker!


This is the view they wake up to everyday. Maybe it's not a big deal for people who live here so long, but I love it. Love it.



Sadie and I danced and then ate Banana Nut Crunch together this morning.



All in all, it's been fun so far. I'm just having fun not working! And I love being surrounded by dry mountain air. I feel like I'm home.

Until next time . . .


Thing I'm thankful for: chain stores like Target, where you can quickly and easily buy what you forgot to pack . . .
