utah trip

This weekend I took a quick trip up to Salt Lake City and Provo to visit some family and friends and also drop off Dan at BYU for summer term. It was a nice weekend and a fun get away for me since I didn’t bring any kids with me! Dave did a great job watching Calvin and Clare and Pete and Jessica adopted Alexey for the weekend (for her safety –3 kids is really pushing dave to the far limits of his parenting)!!

Highlights – visiting G. Joyce and g. Cal and having a Dahlquist family gathering for Father’s Day with all the aunts and uncles and many of the cousins
-seeing the Hawkes at their new home and spending time with their wonderful family. This picture shows on of the views. They have a view out of 3/4 of their house. The back of the house views the mountians and it is lovely too.
-visiting the Wickmans – my second family from the time I was about 3. It was fun to visit with Matt and Kerry and their beautiful girls. Matt is about 12 years older than me and 10 years younger than my dad. He and my dad were good friends.
- visiting BYU campus. It is just beautiful! All the construction that was going on while I was there has really paid off. Campus looks great. The cannon center and dorms are awesome! this is dan dropping off his tray at the cannon center. It is completely remodeled and pretty nice.
Here's the dining area.


-seeing G. Ruth and G. Bruce
-the breathtaking mountains. We saw all of them, from the foothills in bountiful to the mouth of cottonwood canyon, to utah valley mtns. All are beautiful. I Love the mountains.
