Zwick Family Reunion 2009

You would never know from this picture...but my boys were so excited to go on the airplane to Utah. I think their somber faces were due to the fact that our flight left at 5:30am which meant being at the airport at 4:30am...what we were thinking???

We arrived in Utah at 10:30am Sunday morning, got the rental car, and headed straight to my grandparents house. The smell of their home as we walked through the door always takes me back to my childhood visits, some of my most cherished memories.

We were fortunate to have my aunt Connie offer to let us stay with her for a couple days. My boys loved staying with her and in fact started calling her Grandma Connie, much to my mothers dismay!

We visited family, went to the dinosaur museum, but the highlight for my boys was the trip to Hogle Zoo and Lagoon...here are some of the pictures...

Overall, it was a great trip! Thank you Grandma and Granpa Zwick and Mom and Dad for making it so memorable for all of us! We love you!
