Our visit to Utah!

Our visit included so many activities! We went to a movie--some of us saw 'Nim's Island' and some saw 'Speed Racer'. Grandpa, Kerby and Jake went golfing. I was so proud of Heidi and I--we went to the gym and did a Core-Pole class (NO--not an actual pole class--how naughty of you to think that way!) which involved a giant pole that we connected exercise bands to and pulled with all our might in many different exercise positions. It also included some step exercising too! We also went running 3 days--thanks to Heidi for pushing me each day!! **Of course those are all the activities that didn't have pictures! Here are the ones that do:
