On our way back from Bear Lake, the Scott Family (my maiden name) was having a birthday party for my Uncle Emory, who was visiting from Australia! I haven't seen my Aunt and Uncle for a very long time and it was so wonderful to see them and spend time together! On the way to Bear Lake I kept thinking, "how am I going to see all of my family?" My dad's side all live in Ogden and my mom's side all live in Logan, plus my 2 brothers that live in Utah! It is a ton of people to see! My next thought was, "wouldn't it be great if they were having a family get together!" Well, about 3 days before we were leaving the cabin, we got a text from my Aunt Crystal letting us know that there would be a birthday party for Emory at her house! Perfect! I didn't get to see all of my cousins, but I did get to see a lot of them and all of my Aunts and Uncles who live in Ogden! We had a wonderful time and the kids had a blast meeting more of their cousins! Also, my cousin Winfield and his wife Emily and there 4 kids moved to the states from Australia and I got to see Winfield after years (since I was a young child) and meet his wife and children! We are so happy to have them living in Utah! Even though they don't live that far away, we just don't get to see them that often! It is sad, but I really cherish the times that I do get to see them! It was nice that my brother Mike, his wife Brita, and their children were able to be there! So I got my wish and was able to see most of my family while I was in Utah visiting! What a wonderful blessing!
