Sunday, I had the wonderful opportunity to perform with the Bells, the Choir and the Orchestra for the Music and the Spoken Word’s special memorial day program. It was a fantastic program, and I feel so very blessed to have been a small part of it.
Here’s a picture my friend Brittany took of the two of us with the choir behind us.
Sunday night the kids wanted to go and visit their favorite (and most fun) aunt Julene, and when we asked if we could come over, she invited the kids to stay the night.
Cole didn’t go, since he’s still struggling with a nasty cough, but we let him watch Monty Python’s Holy Grail, so it wasn’t all bad.
The fun didn’t stop because on Monday, we picked up the kids and went to the Provo cemetery, where my grandparents are buried. We met up with my parents, my sister and her family, and my Aunt and Uncle and cousins. It was nice to be there with so many family members and to hear stories of my Grandpa and Great Grandpa.
Then we went to Spanish Fork for a family party with Ryan’s family, where we ate and ate and ate WAY too much delicious food. Because that’s how you kick off summer, right? Eating too much corn on the cob and homemade ice cream. The weather, which hasn’t been ultra cooperative around here lately, was beautiful! Not to warm but not cold.
It was a wonderful holiday weekend and wonderful start to summer!
How did you celebrate?
