Grandpa, Aunts & Uncles, Cousins, Grandma and a mission reunion all in a six day road trip! Our first stop was at Abuelo's House! Penny made herself comfortable on Grandpa's couch on his front porch, enjoyed some ice-cream and she loved the swing in his backyard. Then we were off to see my Sister and stay at her new house. She does an amazing job with all her interior decor!! Beautiful! (we ran three miles together :) She's ready for the family 5k in August :) We even did a turbo jam workout together! Dallin had so much fun playing with his cousins! He got to ride there scooters, play at the park, learn to play new video games, pet there geico's. Penny liked playing in MJ's pretty girl room. They had a good time entertaining eachother while my sister and I did some sewing and craft projects. Then I had a wonderful time at my Sister Missionary Gathering!!!!! Then off to see my brother and his new house and location where they moved. They have a beautiful country home / lifestyle. My brother took me for a ride on his motorcycle :0 We spent about a day and a half with everyone and we would have loved to spend more time. Short and sweet was the theme for this vacation!! We spent half of Father's day with my Brother and my Sister-in-law made some delicious meals THANK YOU! Then we went to a park up in the Utah canyons and had a BBQ with Rolo's Dad and family. Stayed with my Sister again :) Thank you!! THEN we were off again to see Rolo's Mom and the Rocha cousins. Good Times! The best part of the vacation was watching the cousins play together. They had a GREAT time! Thank you everyone! I have over a hundred pictures from this road trip, here are just a few :)

They have a cool tree house!
Penny with Uncle Ryan :) They have a gorgeous paint horse and Penny loved there spunky little goat!!
I was nervous to ride on Ryan's bike but he's a really safe driver and he took me for a scenic ride up a canyon. It was a fun new adventure to ride on a motorcyle! I can see now why people like to ride motorcyles. Especailly when you live in a beautiful country area!! It is way better than sitting in a car ;)
It was so nice to see my mission President and his wife. They are two special examples to me! Sister Packer is so kind and she was in awe seeing us with our little kids. She said " you were beautiful Sister Missionaries but look at how more beautiful you are now, being a Mom". My President said "Everything you were dreaming of in the mission is now happening" So true!!
Mandy was my first companion :) She is amazing and she taught me so much, and I will always be grateful for a wonderful trainer!
Shauna and I served together for 6 weeks. We had a great time together! It was a short time to serve together but it bonded a sweet friendship. After our mission we were college roommates together and had some more good times. Now eight years later we both have little girls. Who knows maybe they will be mission companions someday together. That would be neat :)
Sharee in the purple is the one that organized the Sister get together! All of us LOVE Sharee! She is wonderful and we all are grateful that she keeps us close and in contact with eachother. I was able to serve in Sharee's area in St. Louis for six months and we even went tracting together. Lots of good memories with her!!
