Bye Hyrum

Well, we're home from Park City. I just got back from taking Hyrum to the airport - he had a 9:45 pm flight back to San Diego.

He'll be there for 5 weeks, then back home for a few days before going up to BYU-I. School starts up there on Sept 3rd. Bye Hyrum! We'll miss you!

I went bouldering after taking Hyrum to the airport. Corey and Lily were going to meet up with me there, but something happened to the garage? Corey ended up bringing Lily and she was with me for the last 30 min before it closed at 10. Today was a pretty busy day getting things kinda ready for tomorrow. Joseph and Eliza are here, Ethan and Bella are still up at Park City with most of the Wrides. We were going to have Mary's baby blessing tomorrow at 9:30 at our church, but Joseph changed it to noon at our house so that the people at Park City have time to check out and get back down. 

For our final day at Park City, K made it memorable by peeing her pants last night. She was drinking a ton of her water bottle right before bed, so I kinda saw it coming, but I didn't have a diaper. I took off her wet clothes at 3 am and then wrapped her in a towel and she went back to sleep. She was a bit upset in the morning to find that she did not have on any clothes. 

I was able to wash and try them before she woke up, so we put them right on after she was awake.  We enjoyed time with Mary and Alvie. Hyrum holding Alvie, Natalie with Mary.

Natalie doing magic tricks while she held Mary as we waited for breakfast to start. Mary was amazed!

But Mary's always amazed. If she's awake, her eyebrows are wide and in awe. I did most of the packing up while Corey sat in the sauna. I cooked up all our sausage and 3 quarts of eggs. We checked out of the lock off and J&E out of their room across the hall, they put their carts in our room, we went to eat, then we headed down to load up the cars with bags and bikes. We headed home around noon. Abi and Owen were boating with Mel and Christian's family. I drove the van home with H, Eliza and Mary and LSPK. Joseph drove Corey's car with Natalie and Daniel. Corey stayed in Park City a bit longer to help load up Eliza's dad's bikes after Mel got back. They boated until noon, they came back to Park City, then they came home. Hyrum helped me fix the furniture in the house while Joseph managed unloading the cars. Natalie was his best helper and earned herself some ice cream. Corey went by Costco for a few things. We mowed and edged the lawn this evening, found a few monarch eggs (21 eggs and two babies!), I cut back some bushes in the front yard and tried to clear out some of the morning glory. It was a good busy day, and it was a good week at Park City.
