College Friends





It is so great so see some of my college friends when I come to Utah. I am so glad that I have three of them that all live within several towns of each other. Laura, Sally, Carrie and I were able to get together several times to see each other. We had a wild time taking our 15 children to McDonalds and then to Sally's house. She is much braver than I would have been allowing that many children in my home. Amazingly, they all played together pretty well and there were no major catastrophes. In fact, there was not much to clean up at all. They did a fantastic job keeping themselves occupied while we were able to catch up on old times and reminisce. We also had an opportunity to have girl's night out. We went to Tepanyaki in Lehi. Carrie couldn't meet us for dinner but she and John joined us for dessert at The Malt Shoppe in Provo. It was like old times, getting shakes, laughing, and talking. We always pick up with each other as if we have never been apart. It is so amazing that we have been friends for the better part of 2 decades. I don't feel that old. We were also able to get together with the kids at a splash park in Herriman. Carrie couldn't make it but it was great to see her twice. I look forward to seeing them all again soon.

So, so, so sad that I couldn't be there. You have to let me know in advance and I'll try to be there when you come again!

It was SO fun to see you and your adorable kids! That's the fun part about being in Utah, it's like a hub, with people always having a reason to stop through. You should move here! And have Kevin look into Omniture! :) My brother Jerry is applying.
