After Uncle Denny's funeral on March 26th, I got to stay a week with Nan and also spend some time with Tami and the boys. It was a week full of fun times and lots of adventures. I was so glad to be with Aunt Nan, she is one very special lady!
Nan wanted to learn how to ride the 'front runner train' up to the Salt Lake area, so one day we decided to do that. Tami and
boys came with us to visit Temple Square and go to the City
Creek mall. It was an adventure!
We made it to Salt Lake, then waited for the Trax train to take us to Temple Square. It was a beautiful, but cold day.
We walked around City Creek Mall and ate lunch there.
Afterwards, we had to have a little ice cream!
We had planned out everything perfect. We made it back to the train station in time to catch the train back to Provo for Tami to make it to work by 4:30. We were so proud of ourselves for showing Nan, how its done!! Then, somehow, we don't know what happened, but all of us unloaded the train, just following the crowd. We were looking around for the car and things were just not right! Something was wrong! We had gotten off at the Orem station instead of Provo! We saw a couple of buses and ran over to one and the driver said he could take us to Provo, no problem! He didn't tell us it was going to take and hour to get there. Tami ended up being late for work!! The upside was, Spider Man was on the bus!
I felt like I was on vacation staying with Nan. We stayed up late talking, we went to the movies and saw a 'chick flick', Cinderella, we ate at the restaurant where Tami works, we went to a gymnastics meet, went to the mall several times and just had lots of fun together.
I was happy to be in Provo on Tami's birthday --April 4th! We all went to lunch at Pizza Pie? I can't remember what the place was called. It was yummy and fun for all of us.
Instead of having to fly home, I caught a ride home with Todd.
He had brought his kids up for Conference weekend, so that worked out really good for me. He and the twins were great friends growing up together.
Nan was always keeping busy, delivering treats, making Easter cookies with her grandkids, feeding me and everyone else. I was there so she wouldn't be alone and to help out, but it was really just a fun time being with her. She was and will always be an angel in my eyes.
When I was up in Utah, LaVerl was home in Eagar worrying about all his fruit trees that were blossoming out. He thought he might get a few apricots and the cherry tree was looking beautiful with all its white flowers, but it only took one freezing night and now its all brown! Maybe we'll get apples??
