"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences. " Gordon B. Hinckley, BYU, 2006

Aunt Beth's Trip


"Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better."
Albert Einstein






"We need not wait for the world to become more mystical;the world is mystical."
Marianne Williamson





This past weekend my Aunt Beth came to Utah for a visit. She had gone to Montana for a business trip and planned a detour trip here before going home. This gave my sisters and me an opportunity to clear our schedules and spend some quality time together. (Thanks for being an angel Aunt Beth. It was just what we needed.)We talked, laughed, got some awesome pedicures, played Scrabble and much more. But my favorite part was the trip we made up to Sundance for Sunday Brunch. There was a storm that had come in that morning. It was just raining in the valley so we didn’t think anything of it heading down to Provo. But once we got to the mouth of the canyon the roads were pretty bad. (This storm brought in 18-30 inches.) We decided to make the journey anyway. It was well worth the trip once we got there. There is nothing more surreal than freshly fallen snow. Sundance was absolutely beautiful and the Foundry Grill served up food that was amazing…
