"You likewise will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of these meaningful and significant things. Some of them may be funny. Some may be of significance only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience."

--President Hinckley, from a BYU speech: "Experiences Worth Remembering" given 31 October 2006

International Summerfest

Last weekend was International Summerfest here in Bountiful.
Eiko sold (a lot) of her Japanese calligraphy and art,
Jacey sold her to-die-for cute cards,
my Mom sold her embroidered aprons,
and Shannon and her sister Sarah sold hair bows.
(I'm using the term "sold" here pretty loosley...
Eiko's the only one who actually sold anything.)
It was a lot of fun though
and some great memories were made!

Uncle Paul's Visit

Right now Uncle Paul is in town for the weekend! Tonight we had him (and "everyone!" over for dinner). We ate chicken and ribs, and s'mores around the fire for dessert. From beginning to end, it was a great night! We wish Paul came into town more often!
