Logan Nostalgia

We attended Kent's grandma's funeral last week in Preston, Idaho.  We decided to spend a couple of nights in Logan since it's the closest city to Preston and we wanted to have a chance to visit our old stomping ground.  We went to Bear Lake about 4 years ago and drove through Logan but we didn't really stop anywhere except Gossner's cheese factory.  This time we stopped and looked around and really took a trip down memory lane.  I am a pretty nostalgic person.  I have many fond memories of the past times in my life.  Logan is a place for me that holds lots of memories and lots of good times.  A lot happened in this little white house.  We lived here for only 3 years but at the time that seemed like a LONG time.  It was a long time in our newly married lives.  We brought two new babies home to this house.  I feel like this is where we kind of became a "real family".
Our house in 2005

Our old house now.
The house doesn't look too different.  It actually looks better.  The front yard looks well kept.  The back yard looked kind of junky.  The people who moved in after us cut down the big horse chestnut tree.  It was a beautiful old tree so it is kind of sad.  But those dang horse chestnuts were a pain so it isn't surprising.

The familiar sight of the Logan temple.  The temple was about 1 block away from us and we could see  it up on the hill when we stood on our front porch.
