Fun days

We met Andrew and Megan, the newly engaged couple, at the airport as they arrived home from Peru.  Megan's parents were there, too.  We all ate lunch together at Cafe Rio because Megan had been craving "American food"? after two months in Peru.
 
 
 
 Later that evening Holly and Cody brought their three kids down to Salt Lake for a sleepover because Holly had to work the next day and couldn't find anyone to watch them.  I was more than happy to have them.  Olivia fell asleep that night as she was reading. 
 
 
The next day we headed out into the city.  I showed the kids my "Church".  Our branch meets in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building.  Lils said it was the prettiest Church she had ever seen.  Yeah, it's not too shabby.  :)
 

We wandered around Temple Square and they all wanted to go see the Christus again even though they had just seen it a few months ago.  Lily loves to ask the Sister Missionaries in the visitor center for pamphlets in Chinese since she is learning to speak it in school.  She told them she wants to go on a mission to Taiwan someday.
 

We spent a lot of time in the children's section of the Church History Museum.  Jack and Liv were fishing in Nephi's ship. 

 
 They all "made dinner" for the missionaries.  Jack wanted to feed them a whole chicken, haha.


 Driving a jeep in "Mexico".


 All of these pictures were taken with my phone and they are quite blurry.


 Lily and Olivia really got their Mexican skirts twirling as they danced to the music.
 

 

These guys deserved a nice cold treat after walking all over in the hot sun without complaining.
 

  This one was worn completely out.
