Saying Goodbye to Summer






Fall is just around the corner and this is my favorite time of year! There is definitely something to love about cooler weather and fun holidays approaching. Summer was so fun though and I was looking back over pictures and realized what a memorable summer this was. The biggest event of our summer was Emma's baptism and having family and friends there to share the day with us. Before and after the big event we had fun at parades, picking apricots at Grandma's, boating most weekends, enjoying family and friends passing through, splash pads, long play days that flowed into the evenings and our most recent trip up North to Park City. We took the kids to Sundance and rode the ski lift together on a breezy summer evening and then stopped in Heber for the best shakes! We took the kids on the Park City Trolley and they loved it! We finished off the weekend at This Is The Place Park and had a great time. On the way home we stopped at the Red Barn and I came walking out with a big bag of apples and a smaller bag of pears with a smile on my face thinking of Fall!

Sounds like the perfect summer. I love fall too. The cooler weather, the smell of the air. Maybe because you and I didn't have 4 seasons growing up in DB!

Steve and I are so grateful you settled in Santa Clara. It is so fun to see you so involved in the wonderful little community and watching your beautiful little family growing up and learning to love their surroundings. What a fun year it has been. We loved seeing the darling pictures of the girls in the Swiss Days parade. You make wonderful memories for your girls. We're very excited to see you this weekend and share in the festivities of watching Jackie run across the finish line at THE ST. GEORGE MARATHON! YEAH!!! Way to go Jackie! Love, Gayle & Steve
