Last week we got back from a wonderful trip to Utah to attend the sealing of our dear friends, the Belands. However, as I get ready to post this I realized I have an extremely sad lack of pictures, not to mention a smudge on my camera lens. *sigh* We had a great time with so many loved ones, I apologize to you all that your pictures are not on my blog!
We drove through the middle of Oregon ( no mans land) and stayed the night at our friends, the Goings in Boise. We had a good time that night at the playground with them and their three daughters.
Next day, we went to Logan. We stayed with the Belands and immensely enjoyed our time there. Thank heavens they have a big house! Together we had eleven children and they did beautifully. They played so well together, it was great! Pictured are the all children except Nathan, and their twins, Oliver and Elliot.
We enjoyed having a Medieval themed birthday party for their eldest, Truman, attending their daddy's endowment, and their family sealing. We also had lots of great conversation and even traded babysitting so we could have date nights!
We also had a nice time attending church in our old ward and seeing old friends there, and seeing family Sunday afternoon. Bart's parents, and three siblings' families came together to visit us and we are so grateful for their effort to come from Idaho (and for Ruth for hosting) so we could see them all.
I also made a new friend. Hi Katie! :)
On the way back to Oregon we spent the night with the Dames in Fruitland. What would we do without all these good friends! It is so much better to be able to enjoy time with friends then go to a hotel. (Hopefully our friends we imposed on felt the same way.):)
Anyway, thank you to all, and we know we didn't catch everybody (sorry to those we missed), but we thank you all for being there for us.
