Last Saturday night Mike and I got together for dinner with this bunch. Good friends from high school days. Out of all the people in this photo, only 4 did not go to school with us. I sure love these guys. We laughed until we cried.
Mike had a weekend get away - just the two of us - to Bryce Canyon planned for my birthday. It's been a challenging week here at our house - and we almost didn't end up going. So glad we did. We stopped on our way south and spent time in the Payson Temple, getting some peace and clarity. Bryce was stunning this time of year with the melting snow, contrasting with the orange hoodoos. We enjoyed a couple of days with time to talk, be together and soak up the beauty all around - it was so perfect. Thanks Mike!
Also, this trip was a big milestone for our family; the first time we have left our children overnight on their own (sort of - I had my sisters check in on them). The kids did an amazing job! Not only was the house still standing, but they had done their jobs, taken care of the animals, and managed to get along...all without Mom and Dad there to prod them along! We have great kids.
