Around BYU

While Charlotte was at Education Week and the cousins were in school I went on adventures with the boys. The first one was around BYU we went to the Bean Natural History Museum, then Bowling, because of Education Week there were a number of people promoting things and Studio C a Mormon Saturday Night Live type show on BYU TV had a table with cut out actors which was fun for the boys.




Temple Open House trip

 
Ann, Chris and I toke the boys through the Ogden Open House which was really beautiful. Before and after that we went to the Airplane Museum and to Antelope Island




Spanish Missionary Reunion

I set up a mini reunion of some of the Spanish Elders and Sisters from my misson, we had a great time!

Salt Lake City

I toke Ben & Nathan to Salt Lake City, we first went to the This is the Place Monument, Nathan thought it would be funny to put his Cosmo BYU Cougar in each statue picture in the statues hands if possible. Funny thing I thought sure I got a picture of the main monument, but I guess I didn't.





After that we went to see Brigham Young's House (The Beehive House), the Conference Center and a few other places.



Curiosity Museum

We went with Ann and her kids and Grandma Larsen to the Curiosity Museum at Thanksgiving Point where they had lots of fun hands on science activities and play areas. Charlotte even found a fake library!
