Utah

16 hours to get there: traffic through Truckee/Reno, black ice from Winnemucca to Wendover, snow storm from Wendover to Toole. Stella was a champ, of course. We got to see so many people, and still didn't have time to see everyone we wanted to (I'm talking about you, Poon!). Here are some pics from our visit:

Capturing a single moment without the little Babe

Stella LOVES her Ya-Ya

Rekindling a friendship with her little friend Hattie

These two were such a kick to watch - they had so much fun that Stella still asks if we can go to Hattie's house. I love Hattie's face in this one!

Just hanging out

Glenn is the only one whose face would tell you that we stayed up until 2am to ring in the new year - I think the rest of us look pretty alert (although I seem to look sort of peeved in this one).

Stella has discovered her love for Cousin Brad and Cousin Allison - she just loved hanging out with these two (as did we)!

We also got to meet up with our friends Rachel and Jonas and finally meet baby Ramsey - what a cutie!

What a fun trip!
