As I mentioned before, I moved Saturday-Sunday to Lubbock. Jeff and I got there at 7am with the moving truck Sunday morning, and Ben and Tonia showed up at 11am. Tonia and I left with the kids for Utah and Ben and Jeff unloaded the truck. Then Ben took my car back to Midland. Pretty much I have the best family in the world... I got a lot of help packing and unpacking.
We got to Pleasant Grove about three in the morning. Everyone was excited to wake up at Grandma Roundy's and pick peaches, apples, grapes and strawberries for breakfast.. (I can't seem to find those pictures though). Thank you, late harvest! The next day we went to Dough Boys and Flour Girls for lunch. And then I took the girls to Heritage Park down the road from her house to enjoy the afternoon. Sadie wished on some dandelions she'd get to see Daddy real soon.
Abby wished that she could leave the park and be around anyone but me.
And we had fun playing with our shadows. I loved that park! It was beautiful. And so Mormon. 
Some Mom showed up with a picnic, her kids, a hand quilted blanket and their scriptures (they're in the background). They sat by the stream and read their scriptures together. I kept waiting to wake up from this little dream but no, no. It's all real-it's Utah. 
Sadie lucked out-when the group of 20 kids ran off to play tag, she had the rope swing alone to herself for twenty minutes. Best. Day. Ever.
