Family night with Uncle Bri and saying goodbye...

At the end of our trip we had a fun Monday night at Brian and Alisha's house.  Alisha made orange chicken (our favorite!) and they made a sweet, frothy drink that Caleb, Avery and Presley will talk about forever!  Brian talked about the story in the Book of Mormon when the people of Ammon buried all their weapons of war and kept their promise to the Lord that they would not kill the Lamanites.  The kids acted it out and even put their swords under the carpet at one point  :)

Then, the last day before we left we met the Blanchards at a park and renewed friendships - it's amazing how easy that is to do!  It was great catching up with Madelyn while the kids played.  Here's Lily with the girls,

and Elliott is in this one with everyone.  Such fun friends!

Last, we went to say hello and goodbye to the Jeppsons and Johansons.  They were camped out on the lawn at the U of U in front of the music building because most of the kids were doing a music camp that week.  We got a great watermelon shot!

We'll see you next year, everyone!
