What a week! What a short week! Must say, the gathering was a blast. It was so fun to see the pictures you posted, Mom. My favorite was Nick wearing a that hat! Some of my favorite memories were watching Peter and Grant play together, talking to Lauren and Nick about their new house, listening to Garrett and Joe play the guitar and ukulele, beautifying Emma (didn't take much), staying up late talking with Jenn and Scott at the sleeper house, playing Things with Grace, and the Olympics at the park. The boys loved the tug of war and all the fun pioneer games. The ultimate frisbee game was so fun. I call being on Nick's team whenever we play.
Everything else seems so mundane and day to day after such a gathering. But work progresses on the garden space and chicken coop. Things are picking up for the rental house project too. We are putting an offer on an old mansion that has been converted into apartments that we want o renovate and turn into furnished mid-term units for contract workers who come to stay for 6 weeks - 6 months. It should be an adventure!
Jack has one soccer game left. They tied their last one, which drove him crazy. He was really hoping for overtime, but no luck.
The boys are doing their gardening class and things are starting to grow!
We are so glad that the Idaho Falls temple has been finished and rededicated. It opens for service on Tuesday and Alex and I have committed to going once a week too! Ian and Jack really enjoyed being able to attend the open house and today, the dedication. It was their first one! Hopefully not their last as temples keep being built all over.
Thanks everyone for coming to the gathering! So great to be together. No other crew I would rather spend time with.
