The Gibson cousins in America

My children were so EXCITED to have their Gibson cousin's in Provo!! They stayed right near us for the first part, in the Residence Inn. Nice and close so we could drop in and even use the pool. It didn't matter what we did, as long as they were together they had FUN. It was also lovely to catch up with Amy and Mark.

Josh and Hyrum had lots of fun together. Hyrum loved having a boy cousin to hang out with.

Of course, the Gibsons wanted to see snow! (Quite frankly we were OVER snow but were happy to oblige.) A few days before they came to Provo, we had the dreaded snow storm I blogged about earlier and although it had mostly melted in Provo, we searched the mountains at Sundance and of course, we were in luck! Sledding, snowfights and snowangels were their entertainment....yes we had to force them to have fun!

On the way up the mountain, the Gibson's tyre got destroyed and within minutes we had a volunteer come and helped! (Gotta love Utah!)

Our Sunday stroll to Provo temple was beautiful. The sun was out and missionaries were EVERYWHERE. We have never seen the grounds so busy. I think the luxury of the sun finally coming out and the snow melting was just bliss for everyone.

Temple square.

The videos are out of order. The second video is of the Sunday stroll to the temple. However, this was the first bit of snow the Gibson boys had seen and they were rather excited. (It was a bit sad, because it was old, dirty snow that had been cleared and put in the corner of the carpark.) We told them if they were excited about seeing this snow, just wait until we got into the mountains! The second video was a few day's later and the Gibson's just loved sledding etc. Even Mark was in heaven.
