good byes

I never actually saw grandma and grandpa leave, but in the middle of one of the tours/video presentations, MaryAnne's family decided to leave, so we all said our good byes. 

Then we went in with Becky's family and watched a video about the importance of family. 

After we got out from our video, we had to wait for Mark's family to come out from the show they watched.

William met a sister missionary from Sweden who was BEST FRIENDS with one of the sister missionaries William knew in France.  (I took this pic actually of the skateboarder, haha)

 At about this point, Becky and her family left, her kids also got restless.

Then we went to the Beehive house, but it was too crowded.  By this time the boys were hungry (I guess the peanut butter and no jelly sandwiches weren't very filling.)

William also wanted to see the famous Utah outdoor mall with fountains that shot fire through rings of water, or the other way around.  So, Paige told us she knew where that mall was located and it had a food court.  We followed her up 3 long city blocks, then across a street, then into an outdoor mall, then through the mall FOREVER. 

Her boys found a fountain to play in.

There were fish in the ponds, creek running all through the mall.  It was an outdoor mall, but there was a roof that was retractable for when the weather was bad.

 This above is probably a picture we don't want Paige or Mark's other kids to see because we bought Audrey an ice cream cone....but I wanted to share this because EVERYONE, including ME, think that Audrey looks like Melanee when Melanee was 10 or 11, this picture may not show it as well as real life, but she does look like Melanee!!!!

Mark's family left while we were eating, but when we walked out of the food court, we could see that the road that we crossed earlier could have led us RIGHT to the food court, we hadn't needed to walk 6 blocks!!!!!
