End-of-School-Year Quick Trip to Utah

Dave was on travel during the last few days of school, so we decided to meet him in Utah that weekend.

We carravaned as far as Moab with our friends, David & Stacey.  Our kids are really good friends and play really well together.  Kate's friends, Hannah and Norah, rode in our van with me, Kate and Ty while Jack rode in his buddy Eddie's van.  The drive didn't seem to take too long since the kids were having a "playdate" while we drove.

After Moab we headed to Castle Dale and our friends headed to Provo.  We spent the night at Grandma and Grandpa Judi's house.

The next morning we went to Fairview and spent a few hours with my family.  We  packed as much in a few hours as we could.
We fed the horses dandelions...


 Threw rocks into the stream...
 had to stop throwing rocks because the sheep were coming down the road...
 rode the horses...
 Steven and Amanda were visiting too.  We got to hang out with them for a little while. :)
 Jack and I took a ride down the road on "Mater".
 played fetch with Skippy and Grandpa...
 Ty did too.

After lunch we headed to Coalville to Mike and Maggie's house to pick up Dave.  Dave flew into Salt Lake and spent the night at Mike's house.  The kids got to play with Avery and Jace for a little bit.

Then we headed to Salt Lake.  We met Norm and Melinda at IKEA for dinner.  We decided (again) that we like my recipe for Swedish Meatballs better than IKEAs.  I did a speedy IKEA shopping trip and we headed to Norm & Melinda's house for the night.

We spent Memorial Day with Grandma and Grandpa Judi, then they headed back to New Mexico with us.
