Some things I miss about Utah

As much as we love El Paso, there are a lot of things that I miss about Utah. Snow is NOT one of them. ha ha. I miss grass though. I lived in Utah for 30 years and I have only lived in El Paso for 3, but it still shocks me when I see all of the grass in front yards. I don't think I have ever seen a park in El Paso with this much green grass!

I also miss seeing all of the church buildings, especially temples. Last night we were driving home from Copperton and we could see 4 temples from where we were. We could see the Salt Lake Temple, Jordan River (as opposed to the West Jordan temple----and the temple is in South Jordan anyway), the Draper temple and the Oquirrh Mountain temple. Here is what the Oquirrh Mountain temple looks like right now:

It is a couple of miles away from my parents house and I have been walking out there every morning to check out the progress.

I also miss all of the kids. When I go to the store in El Paso, I am always the only one with more than 2 kids. The other day I went to Wal-mart here in Utah, and I totally fit in with the crowd. There were so many kids!

Most of all I miss family and friends. Thanks for going to get a pedicure with me the other day Renee. Send me some of the pictures =).
