HOME FROM UTAH

This morning I woke at Sunny and Stephen's house to find this...


...and children having an early breakfast...


...getting ready for school.


Jessica

Riley


Alex


Tristan


Sage


Charlie was the last one up.


After the big kids leave the boys play dogs, a frequent game...



... and the three of them took a few minutes to make a fort with the couch cushions.


Then...

Gracie gets ready for the trip to drop Nana at the airport.

And Dad entertains the kids for a few minutes while Mom gets ready herself.

So I kiss them all goodby.  I hope it is not long before I see them again  and this time have a longer visit.  A taste just makes me want to be with all of them longer.

However, when I arrived home, Alan had a birthday surprise planned.  He had a nice gift for me--a cute outfit perfect for our upcoming trip to Central America.  Then he took me to Morton's Steak House for a delicious and excellent lunch complete with a personalized birthday menu and Chocolate Lava birthday cake.  Thanks, Alan.  You really made me feel so loved.

After a couple of necessary hours at work we arrived home where I went straight to bed for a nap to catch up.  Here I am again blogging late into the night.  Only one day more of this commitment which has been depriving me of sleep.
