First Day of School

Brighton

     We had a pot luck dinner up at our cabin in Brighton yesterday, built by Heber J Grant, it is such a treasure.  Almost every time we walked around silver lake we saw a moose this summer.  It is spectacularly beautiful and such a great place to spend time with my favorite people, my family!

We have found Paradise!

 We decided to take the kids to visit Dave's parents, Pam and Wynn who are teaching at BYU Hawaii for a year. I attended school there 17 years ago and not much has changed in sleepy little Laie, it was heaven, Best decision ever!! If we hadn't left Millie home with my sister Whitney, I think we would have a found a way to stay.  The weather was perfect, the waves were calm, the water warm, Dave's parents welcoming, snow cones delicious, Polynesian cultural center entertaining, mangoes and pineapple yummy, hiking and jumping off waterfalls exciting.  Need I say more. The only negative was the obnoxious birds under my in-laws porch who mated noisily all night long!  But the views of the ocean from their porch were worth the sleepless nights.  I am already strategizing a return visit.
