We went out to dinner with our kids and their spouses on Friday

night, then the grandkids joined us as we were set apart at our

home by Pres. Cowley in our Stake Presidency.

We had to be at the airport EARLY on Saturday morning, August 26th.

Three of our kids and some of our grandkids were able to be there at 6:00 a.m. 

before we boarded the plane.  Blake got the "last touch" before we went 

through security!  Haha! 

 

Blowing kisses!!

One last wave through the window!! 

We met Bob's cousin John Forker, his wife, Jill and son Cameron, at 

Brick Oven in South Jordan for lunch with Jamie, Ann Marie and 

her cute baby Clark.

Cousins

After lunch, we went to Rose Park and celebrated Phil and

Aliyah's birthdays with the Bugingos. We loved seeing 

Godelive, Ines, Yvette, Philip and Aliyah, and my brother

Rick and sister-in-law, Carla! We LOVE this family we got

to know in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia!! 

At 5:00 pm, we drove to American Fork for a post BYU football game 

get-together at my niece, Emily Christian's new home.  Her family just moved

here a week ago from Boerne, Texas!  Bob and Martha were there and 

also my nephews,  Christian and Robby Egan and their families. My

niece, Betsy's daughter Kate Keller and friend, Caden came down from Idaho

for the game, and my niece, Angy and Glenn Christensen came by to visit too!

What a FUN day!!!
