06/29/87 Out to Utah...falling in Love!

6/29/1987

So many things have happened in the past 10 days it is unbelievable.  At the airport I walked a little ways and then saw Andy.  He gave me a big hug and took my bags.  We got the rest of my bags and then went to his home.

I felt a little awkward at first meeting his family but after dinner I felt comfortable.  He drove me to Provo in between and I dropped all my things off.  I left the room a mess and left a note apologizing to Jonna.

We had a picnic dinner at Copperton Park with the family.  By the end of the night we were holding hands and he kissed me goodnight.

Saturday there was workshops.  They went really well.  I talked to my faculty advisor.

Andy and I have gone out so much.  We went to Lagoon on Thursday night.  We had loads of fun and got to talk about so much stuff.  He brought me flowers two times already.

We went back to his house and rode the motorcycle to dinner.  Then we rode around and visited lots of his friends and relatives.  We watched a movie with Steve and Melvin.

We took a ride up to the canyon on the motorcycle.  It was so beautiful.  Absolutely breath taking.

He asked me (indirectly) if I would marry him.  It is so scary but it could be so wonderful.

His mom ordered pizza and we spent the evening watching TV.  Sunday passed quickly .  After supper we headed to BYU.

Things could be so wonderful if we were married but it would be so difficult.  Money would be a real problem in addition to housing and cars.  I'm not sure if what I'm feeling is love.  I really have been happy. I'm confused.

06/14/25 Pre-Yellowstone

Last year for Christmas I purchased a vacation to Yellowstone for the kids and us. The dates for the Yellowstone cabin were June 16-June 20. We decided to break the trip up a little and drive up the weekend before and drive home the weekend after. Also, because Katie got married, and Dallas has limited time off, he was unable to take his family on the trip. We stayed at his house and got some twin time in before we continued north.  Aspen and John moved to Pennsylvania and are in Utah for the summer. On our way up north we stopped at Becky's house to see them and their sweet new baby.  Erik recently got a new job so he was also not able to join us on our trip. Holly became our little girl again and traveled with us.  Holly and Millie My dad's been in the care center so we stopped by to visit him. He's being well cared for. He is struggling to put sentences together. We came and went to church with him at the care center. He's been asking for a really good pizza. So we w...

06/16/25-06/20/25 Yellowstone

We had a really great week on our Yellowstone trip. We stayed at a VRBO cabin in a remote cabin in Ashton, Idaho. It was just right for our group. We were able to go to Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Mesa Falls, the Yellowstone Playhouse, Lava Hot Springs Pools and Slides.  We drove lots, played games, did puzzles, roasted hot dogs, made s'mores, enjoyed picnic lunches, ice cream at the frost top, dinners together made by each lil family and so much more.  Loved it! (There are lots more pictures in our shared Yellowstone google album. Also, these pictures are not in order of happening. )

07/10/2025 Dad's Passing

Dad's stay at the care center ended up being 35 days. He had a care giver that really connected with him named Michael. Michael cared for him when he was living at home and then came out a couple of times to the care center before he died. He really appreciated those visits and lit up when Michael came to visit and help care for him. I'm thankful that I was able to see him the two weekends about two weeks before he died. He was still able to smile and sit and eat at that time. I'm so glad that Ruth and Becky were able to take the time and spend quite a bit of time with him the last couple of weeks before he died. His condition continued to deteriorate and it was not easy to see him that way and spend so much time there. But my sisters and Suzanne did what they could to make him comfortable at the end.  He was found dead in his bed on the morning of July 10. Rest in peace, Dad. I love you!
