We Visit Brigham Young University

One afternoon, Kevin and Angie, Kade, Lauren,Hannah, and George and I took a trip to Provo to look around B.Y.U. Things have changed so much since both George and I graduated from there. We always love to see the changes and reminisce.

This is in the garden area of the wonderful, new Gordon B. Hinckley Alumni House. It is on a hill that overlooks part of the campus below.

We took a tour of the beautiful $35 million facility. It is such a useful facility for alumni gatherings as well as being a fitting tribute to President Hinckley. It was finished in just one year, so President Hinckley was able to enjoy it for a few months prior to his death.

This was President Hinckley's shovel. When they had the groundbreaking ceremony, each of his five children were given golden shovels. President Hinckley chose to use his own with his personal initials written on it.

Kevin and Angie in the family room where people can meet and greet old friends and college colleagues.

In the library, they had a book of the 30,000 donors who totally funded this building. Kevin found his name inside.

Lauren, Hannah, and Kade in front of a backdrop of Provo. You can see the Provo Temple as well as parts of the Brigham Young Campus.

We also made a trip to the bookstore, but we couldn't miss the gigantic indoor football practice area. Go Cougars!!!

The only thing that marred such a perfect day was that someone had hit Kevin's car in the parking lot. So sad!
