Memorial Day Trip to Utah

We decided last minute to go to Utah to see Kirt's family over Memorial Day. His mom and dad were there plus 6 of his 8 siblings plus it was the Christensen family reunion (Kirt's dad's parents and all their kids, grandkids and greatgrandkids). It was a really fast trip. We left Thursday at 5pm and were home Sunday at 8pm. I think we were in the car more than we were not. It was good to see grandma and grandpa and the rest of the family.

The yellow house in the back ground is Kirt's grandma and grandpa Christensen's house.
This is Kirt's Grandpa Christensen's grave. The kids really got into learning about their ancestors on this trip.

Kirt's great grandpa Carl C. Christensen's grave (or maybe great, great?)

Wow, LONG drive!! Hope the kids were good. Oh and I love Garretts Birthday cake and your new boat is sweet. When should we expect a Holding- Spear test run? ;)
