I'm in Utah!

I've been in Utah for 3 weeks now, and it's been nice to see friends and family, and be back in familiar surroundings. Utah is such a nice place! I love the fact that my mom's house is nestled right up against the mountains and Provo is such a beautiful city.
My good friend Stacy who lived in Philly when we were there, (now lives in Florida)came to visit her family, so it was fun to meet up with her a few times. We went to Thanksgiving Pointe --they were having $2 Tuesday's in August and so you could go to any venue for that price. So us, and every other mormon mom decided to take advantage of the great deal. We hit the dinasaur museam, the gardens and the farm. The day we went to the farm, we met up with Becky and Ash who we also lived in Philly with. Stacy and I were able to get in dinner and a movie without the kids too! That had to have been the best part! I haven't seen Stacy in over 2 years, so it was fun to catch up and man have her kids grown!

How much fun are you having! I can't believe how big Stacy's kids have gotten...it has been a really long time. They were so little when they moved.
Brad does not know about the salary at Vegas...he said they never talked about it when he called. Sorry no help there.
Those pics are really good. I loved reading the update.

Looks like you are making the most of your trip! How fun that you got to reunite with old friends. I think your kids are looking so big too, especially Drew! Let us know when you get to Vegas, we'd love to say hi when we're in town.

I've been reading all your posts! The one about the things you miss and don't miss about Philly made me laugh! And I'm jealous you live by the beach for now. When will you be headed to Vegas?

Glad you had fun w/ Stacy. Both of your kids look so big! It's too bad we weren't in Utah at the same time, that would have been to get together with all you guys. We'll talk soon!

Utah is great.... I think you really appreciate it when you haven't lived there for a while. How fun that you got to see Stacy and her kids. It seems like it's been forever since I've seen the Mitchells. All of your children are beautiful. We really need to get all the ladies together for a trip.

Looks like a really great trip. I was just in Utah myself, but just for 5 days this time, we went up to Yellowstone with the family after that.

I LOVE that pic of the 4 of you surrounded by the flowers. I can't believe how big Drew is getting. Nuts.

I am sad that I missed you by a few days. We were even at Seven Peaks one of the days. It was good to talk to you the other day. It looks like you are definetly having a good time in all the places you've lived in the past couple of months. So if we do a girls trip are you in?
