A few weeks ago, we went to Utah for my brother's wedding party (which was tons of fun). We were also able to see a lot of family and friends. Since there are so many pictures, I'll let them do most of the talking (especially the super cute ones of Adriana)
The wedding party was up Big Cottonwood Canyon at the Brighton Ski Resort. My brother is on the ski patrol there and met his wife while she was working there as well. Before the party we took a small hike with some family members around Lake Solitude. Here are a few of the shots.

| And on to the party! Adriana and Kat always have a good time together! |
 |
| A great waterfall and we didn't even have to hike to it! |
 |
| Adriana was examining the rocks - much to Emily's delight - and even tried to eat a few. |
 |
| Here is the crew! |
 |
| And the happy couple, Chris and Di! |
 |
| Adriana had fun while the band took a break. |
 |
| And at the end of the party! |
While in the mountains, we also went to my family's cabin. It's up in the Uinta mountains and just the perfect place.
 |
| The real photographer! |
 |
| I love this one! |
 |
| We stayed with Mark's brother Hyrum and his family. Here are his cute kids. Adriana had tons of fun playing with them. |
 |
| We also went out to the park with his sister Amy and her family. |
 |
| Lincoln and Adriana. |
 |
| Aleia and Adriana. |
 |
| How much is too much? |
 |
| Mark's Grandma Bartholomew (90 years young!) |
 |
| And Grandpa Tanner (91 years young!) |
 |
| Then we stayed with my sister-in-law the last few nights after Mark left to go back to Dallas. Adriana loved playing with her cousins and they were like big brothers to her! |
 |
In addition to seeing lots of family on both sides, we were able to visit several friends.
This is our friend from Monterrey who came up to Provo to learn English.

 |
| Some of my favorite roommies! |
 |
| A mini Jerusalem reunion with my roommates. All 4 of us together again after almost 10 years! And of course we had to take a walk down memory lane. |
 |
| Here we are with some members of the Romero family. Mark taught them in El Salvador on his mission more than 9 years ago!! They are a golden family. Tricia (on the right) served her own mission in Washington DC a few years ago and now lives with her husband (Mike) in Orem. We were very luck because we also got to see Belma (Tricia's mom, in the red) who was visiting from El Salvador! |
It was a great trip and we really enjoyed seeing so many people. These pictures are just a small sample of the people we saw and the things we did. And we wish we could have seen more of you folkies in UT. At least we can exchange blogs!
