It was time to say goodbye to family in St. George and drive up to Salt Lake City to meet up with Cole, Blue and more family. In the morning I packed the boys up in the rental car and drove non-stop from St. George. We actually only stopped once on the side of the road for a potty emergency and once to fill up the car. It was an awesome drive and the kids did great! After driving with little kids plus a puppy from the Midwest to Utah, the short 5 hour drive from St. George to Salt Lake seemed like a piece of cake! It was great seeing family and feeling the arrival of spring! We took the kids on a lot of outings and to so many places where we have fond memories. I also took the kids to see the cherry blossoms at the Utah State Capitol on a sunny day and I also taught the kids how to make giant bubbles and bubble wands with a homemade recipe in the backyard. The kids made and popped bubbles forever! Blue had fun chasing and popping bubbles too! We had a great visit to Salt Lake City to see family with our kids and Blue.
The cherry blossoms at the Utah State Capitol Building were so beautiful on a sunny day. It reminded me a lot of spring living in Washington, DC:
We played and walked around the Oquirrh Mountain Utah temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
