Trip to Utah

Ok, so I was in Utah from 9/26 to 10/6 and had a great time. I am posting just a few of the fun pics I took while there. They are in a random order and the caption for each picture is above the picture. Enjoy!

The Utah State Capital building which is actually on the street where I used to live, just a block East of my apartment building. They re-did the building in recent years (earthquake proofing I think) and it looks a lot better than it did all covered in scaffolding!
Random shot of the gorgeous weather.
My old roommate Jen and her little girl Eva. She is 5 months old and very friendly. Fun to hold this little chubby girl!

The Cote's and I after General Conference on Sunday morning in the Conference Center. It was a great morning.
The Conference Center in downtown SLC. My old apartment (see 1st picture) was 1 block behind (to the North) this gorgeous building. I thought it looked so neat with thousands of people streaming out of it.
With my friends Brandon (left) and Adam(right). Crazy brothers. That's my old swing we're on, kinda miss it and wish I'd brought it home...wonder where I'd put it at my condo. Living room swing? =)

With Ally at Cafe Rio for our favorite lunch. Isn't she a beautiful new mommy?!
And of course, Muma Cote spilled her Cafe Rio salad all over her shirt. Wasn't she kind to point out the stains (post Tide Pen) out to us?! Ally said the caption for this photo should be

"Here's my Bs!"
With my friend Adam at La Frontera enjoying my favorite Burritto in the world. I always go there the day I get off of the plane. So yummy and fun with good friends.

The SLC Temple. I love catching it at neat angles.
I made Adam and Joe pose like photographers make brides and grooms pose. Tee hee. I think I'm so funny!
Muma Cote really enjoyed the flight home. I actually think we had a fun time, we got to eat yummy samys (sandwiches in erin-ese) read a good book and play Scrabble! Muma won of course.

All in all it was a great trip and I thoroughly enjoyed the blue skies and weather in the 80's everyday. I've been home for about a week which is great but I did like not working for 11 days!

Gretchen's Visit to Boston

Not long ago (I forgot about these pics for a bit too!) my great friend Gretchen came from Utah to Boston with her family and I got to spend the day with her. We took a terribly hot and kind of annoying trolly tour and had a great time. We walked a ton and it was so hot but it was wonderful to see Gretchen. Here are some fun pics we took for your viewing pleasure. =)

Late 4th of July!

Hey there. Just going through my pictures and realized I hadn't posted anything from the 4th of July. The whole Flanders/Olsen clan was there and there were some cute photo opportunities. Hope you like it! =)

The kids had a great time with their cousins and posing for pictures.


Ella brought her cute friend from school.


Mark and Nicole, before Olivia was born. Cute belly.


Baby Alyssa made friends with the people in front of us...so funny.


Brian and Mariluz.


Andrew thought it was hysterical that his head was cut off in this picture.


Grandpa and Anthony.


Cute girls Vanessa and Melody.


Andrew and Melody. Birthday buddies, this week actually! Turning 5!

Cool fireworks shots.

Coldplay was fantastic!

Ok, so Coldplay was wonderful. Here are the only clear pictures I was able to get. My friend Mallory and I from work had a great time. Thanks for asking! =)

Back at Wanakee

I got to spend another fantastic week at camp Wanakee this past week. Tons of pictures on my Facebook page at the following link. Enjoy! =)

Coldplay!

Hooray for the Coldplay concert on Monday in Boston!

Gweneth Paltrow's husband and I (and thousands of other people but we won't talk about them...) are going to spend some quality time singing together!
