Dulaneys Do Utah Day One: Sunday, July 8, 2012



Finally!  The day we had been waiting for all summer!  Steve's sister Lisa and her husband Ed and their two youngest kids, Josh and Meg, arrived in Utah!  It has been about 16 years since Ed and Lisa last made the journey to the Promised Land from Missouri.  We were so happy to have them here with us.  My kids must have asked me about a thousand times on Sunday how much longer it would be until the Dulaneys got here. And finally, around 4 PM, they were here!  Above, Steve and Ed are cutting up the chicken for dinner while the salivating onlookers gather round.

The girls wasted no time before they turned on Just Dance 3 and got the Floobie Song going.


That night we decided to go for a walk on one of the trails close to our house.  They are clearing out a lot of trees that fell during the storm we had in December and someone cut an awesome chair into this tree stump and made seats in the big tree trunk.

There is a new strip mall that is going in near our neighborhood.  They just opened the fountains not that long ago.  We hadn't been to see it yet, but had heard it was awesome.  They do a show every hour on the hour.  We happened to be on our way home from our walk just a little before 10:00, so we stopped to catch the show. It was fabulous.

A video of the show.  The Beatles only helped with my enjoyment of the whole experience!
