We had a lot of fun and got to see a lot of friends and family! I was horrible about taking pictures the entire week though and only have a handful of pics to share.
We arrived in Logan, UT middle of the afternoon on Memorial Day. Dave's brother, Dan, was hosting a family BBQ. It was nice to be able to see so many of the Kents at one time! After having an enjoyable afternoon and evening catching up with everyone, we then spent the night at Dan's. Tuesday morning after I worked for a bit we loaded up again and headed south to Provo. We were going to stay in one of those extended stay hotels, but after we checked in we realized there was no way that would work for a week. The internet connection was very iffy and the room wasn't all that exciting either. Because of the internet issue (which I need to work and I needed to work all week) they let us check out and gave us all of our money back. Jake, one of Dave's brothers, helped us get a deal on a much better room at a different hotel in the Provo area. It was a REALLY nice place, but instead of staying for a full week we could only afford to stay for five days.
We made good use of our five days in Provo! We met with a realtor and got our townhouse listed for sale. We have an assumable loan on it so we aren't technically selling it, just hoping someone can assume the loan and take over the payments. We also got to spend time with three of our old neighbors from the townhouses; the Blackners, Kerns, and Lapiolis. It was so good to catch up with them. The Blackners and Kerns have moved away from the townhouses and both have nice new homes. It was fun to see their new places! All the kiddos have grown up so much. Miles seemed to remember everyone and had a good time playing with their toys! While in Provo we also had to eat at our favorite spots (Bajio, Rumbi, In-N-Out, Tucanos, The Chocolate) multiple times. We also drove the Alpine Loop a couple of times to get our mountain fix. It was a wonderful five days!

Sunday morning we attended church in our old ward. It was good to see our old friends/neighbors! After church we then made our way north again, but this time stopped in Bountiful to spend some time with Dave's brother Jake. Jake invited more of the Kents over for a BBQ so we could say good-bye to everyone. Not everyone could make it and those who couldn't were missed! It was a nice evening and a good way to end our trip. We then got up Monday morning and began our trek home again. We arrived home around lunchtime on Tuesday. We were all exhausted but so glad we were able to go!
