While we were having "Grandparents camp", my original 5 kids had siblings weekend in DC. They all stayed together at Clayton's house. He planned the weekend...eating out, eating in, seeing sights and just hanging out. I heard Lindsay and Denton were cooking up some great meals. From all reports it sounds like they had a really good time.They said it has just enough structure and it was very relaxed. Greg and I were so happy they had a chance to re-connect after so many years. They have always been really close and it gets harder to maintain the contact and relationships as the years go by. We hope they will remain good friends and be good to each other no matter how old they get. I was glad to hear the boys gave the girls the bed......we taught them something after all :) They are all really good kids and we are proud of them. Jordan got called into a Bishopric while he was here visiting so got sustained without being present. But the upside of that is that Greg got to ordain him a High Priest Sunday night, which meant a lot to him.
It was nice of their spouses to let them come. Denton just squeaked by because they have a baby due anytime now. Thanks everyone.
The fall in Virginia is so beautiful...you can see why I LOVE living here.
I chose "Amazing Grace" for alot of reasons for the music to go with this post......but mostly because Greg used to play it LOUD on Saturday mornings to wake the kids up for sourdough pancakes. They used to hate that they could never sleep in very late like their friends.....but they are all good workers now because they had to get up to do their chores.
Wonder what time they got up on their get-a-way?
