Coming home

A few days before we left, Elijah flew out to BYU for soccer camp, which I hear he thoroughly enjoyed.

Claire and Marguerite stayed up late and made slime to play with on the car ride home.
Before:

After:
Sybil learned the hard way that anything with the prime ingredient of glue

Avery Island
We ate Boudin egg rolls and fried pickles with a bit of flare
The salt mines were closed due to a recent fatal accident.
Sybil needed to make sure the rock was actually made out of salt:
The greenhouse
The bamboo forest reminded us of Hawaii
Tabasco is made of 3 ingredients: the pepper, vinegar, and salt. 
They are stored in these barrels for 3 years.
And then we were headed West again. Outside of Dallas we had some car problems. 
Not many people were able or willing to help late on a Friday night, except our hero:
Dominique, one of David's childhood friends.

Snowflake, AZ temple
After we dropped off the girls, Sybil land Diego ruled the back seat. 
The Udalls arrived in Vegas with Elijah shortly after we did.
The boys hunted for wildlife in nearby drainpipes and played tennis on the squash courts and 
the girls had a choreographed and costumed (with makeup) dance party
