Another Fun Surprise!!

Hi Everyone,

Thanks so much for updating us with what is going on in your lives. It helps us keep connected a little with all of you, especially those of you so far away. Thanks Amy for the fun new pictures of the girls--looks like Kira loves to play in the rain. Everything looks so green and pretty with all the rain you've had. Kaylee is changing so much everyday and sounds like she is trying to go from laying down to standing up and walking. It sounds like Kira is SO excited for dancing--I'm sure she will have a ball. Ryan, you'll have to tell us how Livy's preschool experience turns out and how McCall likes going to school all day long.
Dad surprised me again this weekend and took me away for an anniversary stay. Do you all remember the cabins we stayed in up at Daniel's Summit by Strawberry? They have built a big lodge up there where you can stay, so Dad took me there on Friday night for our 40 year anniversary. It was very peaceful and relaxing. We were sitting out on the patio about dusk and a doe and her two fawns came down out of the trees and starting to eat the grass probably only about 100 yards away. It was so fun to watch them. We had a nice dinner at the restaurant there and enjoyed the fresh mountain air and peaceful setting. I thought our trip to Jackson was for our anniversary, but Dad fooled me again.
On Saturday, Mitch had invited us up for a BBQ and for he and dad to play a round of golf. That was fun also. They got two carts, so Kimberly and I just rode with them and watched them play golf. Mitch and Dad said they didn't do very well, but I think they still have a fun time.
Sunday, 9th we were able to be with Bryson as he was ordained a deacon. Can you believe he is 12 years old already. Steve gave a very nice blessing and Bryson looked very nice and seemed to be excited to be able to pass the sacrament. All the Bush kids seem to like school and their teachers. Dillon is going to a pre-school at the place where Steve works (Kiddie Kare) so Andrea has been working part time while Dillon is at school.
Well, hope everyone has a great week, and that all is well with everyone!!
WE Love You
Mom & Dad
