What a Wonderful Weekend!!


We have just had so many wonderful things happen over the last several days and we wanted to share them with you! Thursday night (very late!) Tahra and Jonathan arrived from Utah for a visit with Tahra proudly showing her newly acquired engagement ring! Jonathan proposed Wednesday and, of course, she accepted! They spent the weekend with us and we got to know and love Jonathan in a short period of time! He fits right in with our family (whew!) and wasn't scared off (double-whew!). I can't wait until January 4th!!

Then, Friday morning a miracle happened - we finally sold our house in Hull, MA!!!! This time it's final, no last-minute backouts and we could not be happier! I think I actually saw Ian floating around! It'll be nice to be down to owning one house!

Friday night we celebrated at home with chicken enchiladas dinner and shrimp (a favorite with most of the kids!).

Saturday we were planning on going up to Sandia Crest before the BYU game, but when the clouds and rain rolled in we decided to go to Old Town in Albuquerque instead. After that we went to a tailgate party for BYU fans and then off to the game.
Well, it would have been too much to ask for BYU to win after all the other fantastic things happening - but win they did!!


Sunday (today) we had all the kids together at church, where Megan also gave a talk in Sacrament meeting and did a great job (thanks Jonathan for helping her write it!), and then we took some pictures before Tahra & Jonathan left for Utah.


So, a weekend to remember and a lot to look forward to!

We love and miss you all and hope to hear about all your adventures too!!
