Finally, our Utah Trip!

We weren't sure we would have time to go to Temple Square - I am SO glad we managed to get there! We had a whirlwind tour of the temple grounds, the church office building, and the visitors center and we pretty much ran through most of it. It was so beautiful!
It took us a few trips to various stores, but we finally were successful in getting Sami's room put together. We did buy some things ahead of time and had them shipped to our friend's house...but it was amazing the number of times we still had to go to the store. And I would not have believed this if you had sworn on a stack of bibles, but most things WERE cheaper at the bookstore!

David spent most of the trip "trying to have patience!" The one thing he wanted was to buy a special CTR ring...and they didn't have the one he wanted in his size. We did order it when we got home - so not all was lost. It was very hard to leave her there - but we all knew it was the right thing. We are so excited that she is coming home for Thanksgiving!

I wanna see the CTR ring when he gets it. Thanksgiving will be here in no time and Sami will be under your roof once again.

Great pictures! Sami is doing good things in a good place-you can't buy these memories at any price. It is hard to drive away, isn't it? Take comfort in knowing how much she'll grow. Being a mom hurts a bit, huh?
