Recent Activities Oct. 2008

My friend Barbara Jarstad and I went to a small local theater and saw ALWAYS PATSY CLINE.
I am not a country western fan, but this was a great play and the music was super.
Then as a chage of pace, I was thrilled to go to the Gladys Knight fireside in Burien. What an uplift! The world needs more people like her. She had that Mormon choir rockin'.
So last night for more variety my friend Lynna and I went to an opera concert. A new group has formed for opera outreach. It was at a church in Spanaway and there were ten singers. They all performed for free and did parts of three operas. Another great night.
The kids had a babysitter for the first one. Then stayed with friends for the other two.
Monday is Lisa's tenth birthday, so we are getting ready for her party, etc. Searching for long, skinny pants for her is quite a task. She is growing those long legs!

Sara and Weston's Wedding

I had a flying trip to Utah to Sara and Weston's wedding. Everything went very well from parking car at airport to rental in Utah, etc. I stayed at my friend Afton and Reed's house near Leslie's house so we went to the wedding in Pleasant Grove together. It was an all day wedding with the reception ending about 8:00 p.m. The exciting part was when the snake snatched the goldfish from the pond! It was wonderful to see nine grandchildren and 14 greats. All of them are great.
