Mother Daughter Day!

So it was sometime last August, 2008 and we spent the day together while the menfolk were off doing men stuff (fishing, camping, something like that). We got our hair done, went shopping for matching outfits, and then met our photographer at the International Gardens in South Salt Lake to have a Mommy/ Daughter photo shoot. We were having so much fun until Tricia announced that she needed to throw up....which she did! Then she said, "I feel much better now." I think it was a combination of the heat and waiting too long to eat. So we continued and got this great shot, just before sunset. I love it and it's one of my greatest treasures, besides my girls that is. Of course the huge print on my wall looks so much better.

Christmas 2008

Christmas on Temple Square. Patsy's folks came to visit for Christmas all the way from Nova Scotia. We took them to Temple Square to see the lights on New Year's Eve. There was a band playing Blue Grass music in the JS Memorial Building and they were really good. We went inside to keep warm for a little bit. Then we wandered around taking in all the beautiful sites, and we almost walked right into Mitt Romney. That was pretty cool. Actually none of us really noticed him except for Bryant. We tried to get a picture but by that time, our cameras were too cold and stopped working. Oh well. We didn't stay very long to ring in the New Year there...some of us too cold, some of us too old ;) Spencer couldn't be with us as he was getting a play ready to open at the Hale Theatre, but we missed him terribly. Then we went home and played card games until midnight. All in all, a memorable New Year.
