Weekend trip to Utah

We went to SLC this weekend to visit my sister Patty, her hubby Glen, and her 2.5 month twins Aubrey and Naomi. We took Bart to SF and arrived in SLC in the morning. It was a quick flight, Ilan was kept entertained with Cheerios and a tooth brush. In SLC, we rented a car and drove to the mall in Murray then ate lunch at the Macaronni Grill. With full tummies and a little rest, we drove to Bluffdale to meet with Patty and family. The weather was perfect for my sister and I but our husbands were burning. Every time Caleb complains about how hot a day is, I remember a clip from the movie "Fools rush in," when the parents go to Nevada to visit Salma Hayek and her family at the lake. If you have seen the movie you know what I mean. Anyway, we met the babies. I thought they were so small, they only weigh 5+ pounds when they were born. Compared to Ilan who was almost 9 pounds they seem like newborns. Even though they are not identical twins, they look so much alike.

On Saturday, we went to the Museum of Ancient Life in Lehi to look at dinosaur fossils. Ilan had fun touching the displays but he would have enjoy it more if he was a little bit older. After that we went to eat at Rodizio's, a Brazilian steakhouse in SLC. I was so busy feeding Ilan that sometimes I was overlooked by the people bringing the meat to our table. None the less, we ate so much, everything was delicious, if you haven't try it, I recommend it.

On Sunday we went to the Spanish Ward, it was interesting to see so many churches in the same town.

On Monday, before coming home, we visited the temple grounds and the Conference Center. We took a tour of the Conference Center and my favorite part was all the awesome paintings inside.
