Cousins and Trucks

The weekend after General Conference, our household doubled!  Ben's brother Michael and his family stayed with us for several weeks while they were looking for a house to move into in the Salt Lake area.  Which means... more family (COUSINS!) in Utah - hooray!

Among the other preparations we made before they arrived, we had fun making and eating Halloween sugar cookies - something I really wanted to do before we began limiting the gluten-based items we baked because Michael's family eats GF.  It felt like an extra special treat to randomly cut and frost sugar cookies on a weekday afternoon and evening, too.



They arrived on a Friday night and the kids were so excited to have cousins here!  They had some play time before getting settled that night, then got right back to it on Saturday.  We decided to go on a little outing, to Orem City's "Touch a Truck" event, where kids (and adults) could get up close and personal with tons of different trucks, from waste management to first resonders to construction, and more.  The kids enjoyed seeing the trucks but mostly it was just fun to hang out together!
