party time.

This is Wade's party face.

 This is how P comes home and lives the rest of the day...with his name tag still in place.
Actually, this was the first day he got his name tag and he left it on.  But some days he really does still leave it on.

PARTY TIME begins!  Last weekend we had visitors, and it was an excellent time!  Lots of games and adventures.  And maple syrup popcorn...mmmmm.

Auntie Lynds and her beauty shining bright.

And that's definitely beauty shining through.  Or fatigue.

We hiked up (more like walked) the Pioneer names trail in Snow Canyon in honor of Pioneer day.
You know, in 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue...well in 1847 my ancestors arrived to the place they were told to go from heaven.  That works, right?  Yeehaw for escaping all the meanies who hated the Mormons.  Salt Lake City, baby!!

 

After seeing the names on the rock we had a little devotional.

The quartet singing, Faith of our Fathers in the echoing rock solace.

P and I shared stories and thoughts.  It was very nice!

Summer's end is fast approaching and I am excited, but sad.  Wish we could stay longer to be here with ma, pa, and kate when they return!

p.s. i typed this entire post with one hand.
