UTAH TRIP part 1

So, I know I'm just now getting to this, but it's been really crazy busy since we've gotten home! Here are some of the fun things we got to do while in Utah for 8 days....
Wednesday....
Flying standby went great...we got on all our flights fine! We landed in SLC and was home at Grandma's and Grandpa's house by 6pm. We ate Chicken Enchilada's~yummy and pretty much got ready for bed! We were pretty pooped~ us AND the kids!!! Chris and I left our house at 5AM EST and our flight left at 10:45ish to JFK with a 3 hour layover, but all went great! Of course the kids loved flying and watching everything that was happening outside on the runway and loading docks!





Yes, it was Chris' idea to fly in our PJ's and yep, it was comfortable!!!

Thursday
We went to the Bountiful Temple in the morning. It was SO wonderful to be in the temple! Chris and I really enjoyed the scenery; the flowers and grounds were gorgeous! It was a beautiful sunny day and being up on the mountainside, we could see the snowcapped mountains all the way to Draper!! It was beautiful.
After a little bit of shopping, we came home and ate some lunch before heading out to our friends, the BENSON's for a visit! Oh how we miss our friends there. It was fantastic to visit with Jen! It was like old times!!!
We then took family pictures with the entire Jeppson family kids~ there are 14 of us now! SHEESH! :) I haven't gotten any pics yet to post, but when I do, I'll post them!

Friday....
Friday Chris wanted to take the kids up to Odgen, so we road the train, the Frontrunner. It's a double decker train. The kids loved it!!!






We took the kids to the OGDEN train museum...which was really fun! They had some interesting things for the kids to do and Ethan loved it! Alexis got a bit tired and wanted to be carried some, but everyone really enjoyed the visit there...and the train ride!
