Great People!~

Kent attended his Czech Prague Mission Reunion
on Friday, October 4 in Utah.
Dad and I wanted to go as well and meet
this wonderful couple that lead Kent and other
 missionaries so faithfully and with so much love.

President and Sister Irwin with Kent.
They are so delightful!
I wish they lived near us so we could enjoy
more opportunities to be around them.

Trip to Utah~

I left Wednesday, October 2 (Tyler's bday!) to head
over to Utah to spend time with our kids in Provo.
 These photos do not do the scenery justice.
If I could have stopped around every bend to take
a photo I would have, and it would have taken 
me much longer to get to Utah!!

 Just amazingly beautiful!!!

 Little Payten has grown since I was here a month ago.
Ella, and the rest of the gang just love this boy!!

 Sister Mangum's family lives in Provo so I stopped
by Thursday night to give them a hug from their 
missionary and enjoyed getting to know her family. 
Diane and her family are very sweet, I could easily
enjoy being their friends and wished we lived nearer
one another, but Provo is not too bad for some visits.

 Diane runs a fun preschool and art school
in her home, this lady has talent!!!
I got to hold Sister Mangum's dog Phoebe.

 Their home is so FUN!
I got to try out the two swings that hang on
 either side of the ping pong and puzzle tables.

 What a great Grandma house this would be!!!

 Friday night we endured the FREEZING weather and
 went to watch Nathan play in a home football game.
Nathan's #27, walking towards us.

 Nathan's on the far left, dark jersey

 Dedicated family watching Nathan's game!

 Saturday morning we watched Zach's game.
Kent's girlfriend Kenzie, and Jessie and myself
were happy watching as long as we were wrapped
up nice and warm sipping hot chocolate.

 Zach's #2,  he's in the center with the red wrist band on.


 We surprised Kenzie and showed up at the place 
she waitresses.  The BBQ was delicious.

 Sunday morning eating swedes and watching conference.

     
I'm so glad we came to spend time with our awesome kids!!
I'm looking foward to the next visit!

Sister Jenkins and Sister Mangum-our "roomies"~

We are housing the Sister Missionaries in our
ward for a few months, we love having them!
Sister Jenkins, on the left is from Virginia.
Sister Mangum is from Provo, UT.
They are great woman to house.
My house kind feels full again :-)
