Otherwise know as....

The weekend review. There were just too many good things that happened this weekend that needed to be put down somewhere. Like taking a long run with the sister up past the new Oquirrh Mt. Temple. That hill is some kinda something else, but what a great view it provides so I can't take that away. Among other events of the weekend...
-Sean coming over for dinner on Friday...not only did we get to catch up, but he also got to witness the Jordan El at it's
finest and he would concur that it is indeed the "boil on the butt of humanity".-Saturday morning family sealings in the new Oquirrh Mt. Temple.
-Watching Roy baptize the youth. Roy said he felt very nostalgic being able to do for his young men what his leaders did for him.
-Realized for the thousandth time that Roy and I are pretty much unlike anyone in our ward. I think more times than not we are seen as the young punks instead of the adult leaders that we are, but I wouldn't want it any other way. We. Are. Fun! -Irish baby blessing. Charlie is here to stay and we are stoked about that!
-"Spaniard Towers" or at least that's what John called them. Tradition in Spain in which towers are constructed out of humans...our towers were only 2 people tall, but still quite the feat.
-Competitive water sports.
-BBQ on the patio, watching the stars, and good chats in the warm darkness with old and new friends.
-Falling asleep content and happy next to sweets.

This weekend summed up....JOY!

You guys are probably some of the best leaders those youth had. I know I still have fond memories of some of my leaders (the ones who were young and fun not the old folks).
