While visiting mother I read some of my grandmother Meacham's letters which she had faithfully kept all these years. It was very enjoyable. Since I don't write letters I thought this may be a good way to keep in touch and Ben is always getting after me for not blogging.
We just got back from an event filled 2 weeks. We took Craig to Great basin national park and explored the Lehman caves in Nevada. We next went to Utah and stayed a bit with Liz and Ryan and then to Draper to get ready for Marae and Ryan's wedding and luncheon for close friends and relatives. After the lovely wedding and luncheon athey left to catch a plane to spend their honeymoon in New Hampshire in the exra home of grandparents from Maine. They are staying with Ben's grandfather in Highland, Utah for a couple weeks before they go to London for Ben's master program in Mid Eastern studies I believe.
Friday, we had a picnic at Ryan and Liz's moms in Benjamin, utah. The children had a great time in their yard with water slides, baseball, toys, sand box, horses, etc. We do appreciate her kindness in letting us enjoy it. Jaxson asked when we were going to Davey's grandmother's again. We then hurried up to the mountains for a hike to a waterfall and pool the children played in. The weather was perfect. Then to Liz and Ryans for supper. It was delicious.
Saturday we went to Lagoon to spend the whole day together. It was fun to run into my Cousin Joyce and Thale Ostler and visit with them a bit. Also we got to spend time with Tommy our newest 1 month old baby grandson.
Church was attended in Draper and Monday after helping Liz learn how to can green beans and Chicken and meat we headed for Zions National Park to camp. It was lovely and peaceful. Then on to Micheline and Brets for the weekend. We got to attend Lindseys baptism and then went to the lake to meet her cousins family and Barben grandparents who had attended her cousins baptism in Cedar City athe same day. After church Sunday we went to grandmother Meachams and were able to get her computer set up that her hometeacher had so graciously given her. After supper I went through her genealogy and enjoyed that. Monday we met Ben for lunch at Sizzlers to use up the coupons Liz gave her dad. We enjoyed seeing him before we took Craig to BYU Idaho. We were happy to meet his nice roomates.
