Day 3 in Utah

Yesterday I woke up later. When I woke, I realized that I was in Utah! 
 That thrilled me. I woke up at about 1:45 in the afternoon. My mom and I went to the Distribution Center for the LDS Church while my dad slept. We came home my dad needed to go to Provo to visit my brother before he heads out to Temple Texas. 
  My mom made the best salad, and taught me this amazing recipe for a salad dressing that Snuggle's mom will love so much. I can not wait to try it on her. 
  I then settled with my mom to watch a movie. We had such a nice time. 
 I feel asleep and woke up a few times in the night but all in all it was a good night sleep for me. 
 When I woke up for the day, on day 2: I woke up realizing: I am in UTAH!!!!
  I jumped out of bed and realized... wait, it is not a dream! 
  I ran down the hallway to tell my mom I am still here! It was so nice!!! 
 Breakfast was Vanilla yogurt and bananas mixed with Granola. 
We went on a bike ride after talking to Snuggle and my mom just LOVES him. My mom wants to meet him face to face. 
   We had such a great bike ride. We rode to the Public Library. This Library is huge and amazing. The structure is almost like a half moon and the front has gardens on it. It is across the street from the City Hall, which looks like a miniature Big Ben. Most of the old and original buildings here in Utah and namely S.L.C. look very European or English influenced as the earlier settlers were mostly from Great Britain and missed their home and so they would try to make it look as close to Great Britain as possible. We had a really good sandwich in the deli there at the Library, and then we headed home. When we got home we realized that we needed to make copies of the Young Women Camp Manuel. My sister is the head of the Young Women Camp for about 80 girls in Logan and her three daughters and my youngest daughter are all going to camp in Logan Canyon this up coming week. 
  I made copies of the manual at the Church history Library where I found some amazing information for Snuggle to help him with finding his Family History in Turkey and Bulgaria! The Family history Library is HUGE and Amazing. I was able to copy the manual for only 7 dollars, which was a 97 page project and they were so nice to me. As I left all the workers there said goodbye to me and so many people are just soooo kind! One thing I noticed is how quiet the drivers are here in Utah. I am so sorry people think they are rude here. I am sure they are. But I heard one honk in the 2 days I have been here. ONE. Normally I hear it every three seconds. The other thing is how I have noticed how kind the workers are at the Church offices. For those of you living in Utah and are not really happy here, I feel sorry for you. You can go to many places in the world though and not find nice people. No one can say that about many of the people in Utah. Of course there are rude and good and bad all over, but I was walking the three blocks to the Church Library and about 15 people said "Hi" to me... 
  I came home and for dinner, mom made the best Chocolate Chip Cookies and Milk... Ever!!! 
 I watched a movie with mom, but fell asleep and woke up an hour ago. 
  I miss Snuggle but am happy to be home too. My mom said she thinks that I have my heart in two places and have a hard time choosing where it should be... with my family in Utah or Snuggle... She hit that one on the nail! 
  Many pictures were taken but I have to figure out the camera deal... Pictures will come...
