Sun, Sand, and Surf

We just returned from a quick trip to sunny CA. Unfortunately it was only sunny on one day. We went to the beach. I love the beach. It is so soothing listening to the waves crashing and the kids squealing. It was sunny but cold. Too cold to get in the water and of course I left the camera home and did not take any pictures.

The boys flew out early, a deal made over good grades. They both had a great time with their friends. Both attended Dodger games, Trevor went to Disneyland with the band. They actually got to record some disney music and played it to the movies. Corbin went to Magic Mountain. Neither wanted to come home. It is always hard. One thing I noticed is that some things never change. I was amazed at how natural it all felt. I felt as if I was going home. I guess that is what good friends do.

I also learned a few things about the night Denton died. What I remember and what happen are so different. My very good friend Becky and I spent the night talking about it. It was all brought back because Matt, a friend of Trevors, mom died on the Tuesday before we got there. She had been fighting Breast cancer for the last 5 years or so. It amazes me to listen to Becky. She is so strong, and a wonderful friend to Matthew and his family. She pretty much helped Matts dad get the funeral together, even though he has plenty of family. They all left him to handle it and there was Becky to help. She was a lifesaver for me and I know she will be for this family as well.

Back to the trip. There were no highlights for the rest of us. It was a quick trip and we spent is running from one house to the next, visiting.

The drive home was tollerable with Corbin giving me a break. He did great, and he even got experience with wind, rain and a little snow. Got to love the Utah weather in the spring.


By the way, I believe I had 5 In -N-Out burgers in the three days we were in California!!!!

Spring is here!!!!!

I just wanted to say it is a beautiful day today. I love the spring. My tulips and daffodils, by the way did I tell you that daffodils are my favorite flower, are popping up and some are even blossoming. I need to plant one of those trees that have the pink blossoms as well, they are beautiful. Life is wonderful in the spring.

Good news for Trevor. He got his grades up and now gets to fly with Corbin to California for a week to hang with his friends. He is very excited.

Not much else has happened. I am now going to take my book and sit in my lounge chair on my deck and soak in the sun.
