Funny Conversations!

Well, this post will have no pictures, but it might make you smile. The first conversation occurred a few months ago, but it still makes me laugh...

Friend: What do your older sons do?

Me: The oldest is a podiatrist finishing the last year of his residency, the second son is pursuing a doctorate at BYU, and the third one is in dental school.

Friend: Wow...three doctors, and your youngest is thinking about research, too. Your kids are so smart...They must get it from their father!

Me: Ummm...

Okay, now for something a lot cuter. A few days ago I had a conversation with my favorite 3-year-old girl. She was telling me what a fun visit she had with her cousins that stopped by her house on their way to Canada. Since all the cousins on our side of the family are boys, she makes a lot of compromises to play with them! She doesn't seem to mind a bit, but here's how the conversation went...

Me: I heard you had a lot of fun playing with your cousins when they visited.

Schmillian: Yeah. They really like to play with bugs and look for rocks. We were looking for a lot of rocks.

Me: Oh, that sounds fun. Do you like bugs and rocks?

Schmillian: Well, I REALLY like flowers!

A Most Wonderful Week

I have looked forward to visiting The Researcher and his family for about a year now. I can't believe the week has come and gone...but it was something that will keep me smiling until the next time!

It was great fun playing with...

"The Excavator"

and "The Cowboy."

The week was packed with fun. We arrived in time to see the Pioneer Day Parade. We were so glad so many of those we love were able to meet us there.

Thanks to Kingfish and The Nurse for hosting us throughout the week. Backyard Croquet was lots of fun with the cousins.

It was great to introduce The Excavator to horses...up close and personal. He was so brave to ride with his cousins.

Our trip culminated with a trip to Flaming Gorge. Even the little guys got in on the fishing action.

What a beautiful place. But spending the week with those I love outside of numbers and don't see too often can't really be described.
