We went to Utah for my family's Smith Family Reunion. I spent a few extra days with my mom and sisters after the official Smith reunion ended.

| I drove down to Utah with my mom and the babies so Brian and the older two made a pit stop at Shoshone Falls. |
 |
| When we got to Draper, we celebrated Mike's 40th birthday! |
 |
| The next day, Brian took the older two kids to BYU. |
 |
| Ice cream at the Creamery! |
 |
| To kick off the reunion, we went swimming at my grandma's clubhouse pool. Water wings were the fashion of the day. |
