Utah Trip, Day Two

 


On our second day in Utah, we visited with our friends the Howells in Riverton and drove around our old neighborhood.  We went up and saw Aunt Amy, where Grandpa and Grandma are staying, and spent some time there visiting and my cousin Matt came over for a little bit.  We stopped off and saw Jordan's grave.  And we also had lunch at Village Baker, but I didn't take any pictures.  It was so good though!

Utah Trip Day One

We took the kids out of school on a Wednesday in order to drive up to Utah for my niece Leah's wedding. Leah is Jordan's older daughter and second child.  She is marrying Ethan Tenney. We left really early and made the whole drive there in one day, and it was a LONG drive.  We were able to take turns between our four drivers though, so that helped.  We stopped in Amarillo at Buc-ees for a bathroom break and also bought some Icees there as a treat before heading to a park across the street to eat the lunch we had packed. We got to John and Allison's pretty late and went straight to bed.

Choir UIL

I was able to go listen to Travis and Eliza's A'Cappella Choir sing at their UIL competition. They did amazing and it was really great hearing them sing. It was the last time for Travis to do the UIL competition.

Track Season Ends

Jonah's track season ended and he did pretty well, finishing third in district.  He improved a lot during the season with pole vaulting.  I hope he continues to do it in high school.

Alejandra's Bridal Shower

I was able to go to Alejandra's bridal shower with women from my side of the family, which was pretty fun.  So excited for this wedding!






Level 7 States Gymnastics Meet

While I was at Alejandra's bridal shower in Dallas, Corey was with Annmarie in Lubbock for her States Gymnastics meet.  She was able to have her coach, Jazz, do her hair for the meet.  It wasn't her greatest meet ever, but the competition at States is a lot stiffer.  She didn't place high in anything, but did come in 8th All Around in her age bracket. Her scores were similar to what they've been all season, high 8s and low 9s. All Around 35.975.  Missed that 36 by .025.  She had fun just being with Dad.

Wrestling Banquet

As the end of the school year looms, Travis has more and more lasts.  This was his final wrestling banquet, which at least one of us has attended every year with him.  They did special recognition of the seniors.  It was a nice banquet.  Hard to believe high school sports is over for Travis.
