Our final two days in Utah (Aug. 2014)


Education Week ended Friday evening. Saturday morning, we took a little mountain hike.


We worked up an appetite, and had lunch at a cute little bakery/restaurant. Of course, this little fellow was the cutest thing in the place.



Then it was on to the Sanpete County rodeo, where we joined KayLynn's family for the parade, rodeo, and the best smoked turkey legs we'd ever tasted.  


KayLynn's sister Allyson was in the parade.  She is Miss Mount Pleasant for the Miss Utah beauty pageant, and 2nd attendant for MissSanpete County
 

We were surprised to see the view from the rodeo grounds -- the Manti Temple!



There are lots of cowboys in Sanpete County.  I liked this small open air rodeo better than the big indoor Houston Rodeo.




The next day, Sunday, we went to church.


 After dinner, we took a walk around the neighborhood, and enjoyed our last few hours with Emmett, before flying back to Texas the next morning.
 






On Monday morning, it sure was hard to say "good-bye" to this cute little grandson, who is always smiling, just like his daddy when he was a baby. We love you baby Emmett!


(As I am writing this post, Emmett has just turned a year old, and is such a big boy, walking around all over the place and trying to talk.)
