To the father of my children...

He didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.

A Great Visit!

What a great visit, Jenny & Devin! I still can't believe that it has been a whole year since you left. You've done a lot since you left Utah....got two great jobs; bought a house; hiked some beautiful trails; met some wonderful people. It looks like Alaska has been good to you and is where you should be. Don't get me wrong, I still wish you could be closer, but as long as you are both flourishing there, all is well.

You left some good memories when you were here:
  • Playing & beating you at games :) (Taboo, Peg game, Pictionary, Chess, Apples to Apples, and Back Alley)
  • Eating out at Olive Garden
  • Getting a great Mother's Day present from all of you!
  • Shopping with Jeanette & lunch in the park
  • Jenny getting her ears pierced, hair cut & highlighted & clothes galore!
  • Devin's run to Casper's when he was bored or losing at Back Alley
  • Crab legs and shrimp dinner!
  • Playing crochet...Wayne's rules!
  • Pehrson Family picnic and seeing the Fam
  • Dutch Oven dinner up Smithfield Canyon
  • Celebrating Mother's Day with 3 of my kids
  • Celebrating Devin's birthday early & eating ice cream cake

All in all it was a great visit! Thanks so much for coming!Can't wait until Anna and the girls are here in June. Time for more memory-making!

In the meantime, thanks Michele & Wayne for being here and making memories everyday with us!

We love you all!
