Christmas in Utah (the aftermath) 2009

On the 26th Joe and I went to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple with Mom & Dad and Uncle Gary. It was wonderful and a really great way to start the morning after Christmas.

Here’s the view from the Temple across the valley to the East. In Utah we call that nice smoggy stuff an inversion; it’s when all the gross gunk gets trapped with the cold air below the warm air all between the mountains on the East and West, called the basin.

After our visit at the Temple, we decided to meet up with the Grover family at the bowling alley. They were there to celebrate Abby’s birthday, which is the 26th.

Since it was out last night in Utah, I wanted to have one last get together with my family, so we invited whoever wanted to join us at Crown Burger for a little burger dinner, they have the best fry sauce!

Christmas time in Utah with the family was fantastic. We love all the time we get to spend with them.
On the unfortunate side of things, a nasty 24 hour flu was running through the Grigg family. Joe had it Christmas Eve and I ended up getting it the night of the 26th. We were supposed to leave early the 27th, but that wasn’t going to happen. Joe was able to move our flight back to the afternoon and get on a direct flight. Luckily the Meads live near by and have good drugs, so LeAnn hooked us up, and I pretty much slept through the flight. It’s too bad things ended that way, but over all the trip was wonderful!
