Visitors from Scotland

We were so excited to hear that our good friends from Aberdeen, the Rankins, were coming to visit America! And it was for a wonderful occasion - their son was getting married in the temple in Utah. We quickly made arrangements to go down and spend a long weekend with them while they were here. It was a blast.

 

Of course we spent time in historic downtown Salt Lake City, visiting the Church museums and Temple Square.

 

We also did a lot of shopping and eating. We went out to eat at a Brazillian churrascaria, Texas de Brazil, where they feed you endless cuts of meats. While the adults were busy still stuffing their face, the girls kept Reanne busy.

 

Our family stayed at my sister's condo in Provo. We were surrounded by college kids and the girls were thrilled to play with all of Madison's toys! Provo has a great waterpark, so we spent an evening there, at Seven Peaks.

 

 

The best part of the weekend was boating at Deer Creek Reservoir. We rented a boat for a half-day, and everyone went tubing, swimming, and waterskiing. Reanne even got up on skis.

 My boating buddy Scarlett. I even got her to go tubing with me! By late afternoon both of my babies crashed, they were so tired, and loved the hum of the boat.

 

 Thanks for a fun weekend Rankins! Hopefully it's not too long before we do this again :)
