At home in Orem

We arrived in Orem on Wednesday as planned. Although we did take a bit of a detour to get there. After leaving April’s house in Green River, WY, we headed south through Vernal, UT and on to Neola where we visited for a few minutes with Becky’s sister that lives there. We had good weather the whole distance although there was a bit of snow still on the road in Wyoming. Our car needed a good washing when we got home. Since we have been here, we have had wonderful opportunity to visit with several of our children and siblings that live in the area. Today we had thirty-four of our family here – all except for sixteen. Of those sixteen we visited with twelve of them during our drive here. It has been a very relaxing and enjoyable time spent with family and friends. Today, Heidi reported to the High Council and both she and I spoke in Sacrament Meeting later on. Now that those commitments are over, we now need to turn our attention to preparing for the trip back to Nauvoo. Tomorrow, we plan to get our car inspected (fixed if needed) and registered while we are here. We plan on leaving on Wednesday and travel through Los Alamos, NM on our way to see the home that our daughter Heather and her family live in there. We expect to be back in Nauvoo by Saturday.
