It was the first time that we had been together in 4 years and oh boy did everybody make up for lost time!
We stayed local (local being Orem and Provo) and because Jared's brother lives just down the street from us, everybody had fun house hopping.
Some of our adventures included:
- Tubing down the Provo River (and in case anyone is wondering. . . there's a little bit of danger involved with that!-kind of like scary fun!)
- Hiking to the Y , luckily on a cloudy morning!
- A tour of BYU- given by BYU alumnus Jared Norris
- Attending a session and sealings at the Provo Temple with the adults for Jared's ancestors
- The 2nd annual Norris 5K
- An evening of pure entertainment (otherwise know as the family talent show)
- BBQ at the park with baseball games and kickball games on the side
- Attempting to take family pictures in my backyard (thanks to Keith and Tracey's camera they turned out awesome!
We LOVED seeing everybody and the kids had a blast just hanging out with their cousins!
There were many, many, MANY Otter Pops devoured, games played, jam sessions, late, late LATE nights conversations, and even a new blog (or two) created so we can keep in touch better!

hahahaha--yes the Provo river was fraught with danger!!! You are so funny Lani. After the talent show we should have a new nickname for Jared: Jared "Bono" Norris. I agree with Madeline--it was so much fun.
