Day 3 we went to church with Bob and Haley and ate lunch at their house. We left from there and headed to Murray to see my sister in law Lisa who had just had a kidney & pancreas transplant. We stayed there for a few hours to visit because we had to take turns going in and the kids patiently waited in the cafeteria with one of us.
We left the hospital and took the kids on a quick tour of the conference center and over to see the statute of Christ in the visitors center.
You can tell by the looks on their faces in the last picture it was a rough time at the end. They were pretty exhausted and ready for bed. A few days of playing and running and seeing so much away from home and they needed a good nights rest.
We woke up Monday morning - July 4th and headed to meet our friends, the Hansens at 7 peaks in Provo. Everyone had such a fantastic time. We were there pretty much open to close that day.
All the kids went on the slides and even Lincoln started to enjoy them.
These two girls had a great time!
When it was finally time we left we headed to my Aunt Lois's house for dinner and fireworks in their back yard. Grandma and Grandpa Wheeler live there with her so we got to see them as well. They are suffering from Alzheimer's. It breaks my heart that they have to suffer like this. At this point grandma just talks and smiles and grandpa just doesn't talk much at all. They are some of the best people I know.
The kids loved Staci as all kids do. They watched fireworks with her on a blanket in the backyard until we were ready to crash and we left to stay in a motel that night.
What an adventure!!
