While I was in Utah in June, I was fortunate to attend a dinner in Salt Lake City with long time friends, Bob and Becky Cox, and their family. Allan and Diane Asplund and some of their kids were there as well. All of my girls were there, also. It was such a fun reunion! Bob and Becky were reporting to the MTC the next morning in preparation of going to Leon, Mexico to serve as the Mission President there. Bob will be a marvelous Mission President and Becky the most genuine and sincere Mission Mother any missionary could ever want. Allen and Diane had spent a year in China teaching English and have been back for just a few months. We enjoyed our visit immensely, and it was so fun to see our kids catching up as well. Truly my cup runneth over with wonderful friends.

I was so sad to see the evening come to an end. These are friends that go back 30 years. We have been through much together - births, deaths, joy, sorrow, work, play, traditions, accidents, vacations, temple trips, school plays, ball games, theatre trips, holidays, graduations, and many more wonderful life experiences!

That was so fun. Memories are priceless- it is nice to see friends that know our history and that we can be totally comfortable around.
It really was a great reunion! It took me back to our Christmas parties every year and our fun summer swims/BBQ's! We have been so blessed to have such good friends for so long!
