July 7, 2013

Letter to Dustin:



We just got back from Utah.  A bunch of Bob’s college buddies were having a reunion. We spent Saturday with them.  We had a good time.  Bob really loves those guys and they have fun reminiscing about all the dumb stuff they did together in college.  The big shocker, though, was one of Bob’s friends got divorced.  We called them the Huxtables because she’s a lawyer and he’s a doctor.  They’re the nicest people.  They took their 2 kids and went to Africa for 3 years to do mostly volunteer work and now he works at Primary Childrens hospital and she’s a law professor at BYU.  Anyway, 3 days before Christmas she sent him an email that said she’s done being married.  He had no idea there were even any problems.  And now she’s dating a 26 yr old actor from CA, has had a bunch of plastic surgery and she wants to become an actress. So crazy.  She ran the recycling club in college. She just was not someone I’d ever think would do something like that.

And Friday night we met Bob’s sister Katrina’s fiancé.  You remember her right?  We’re so excited she’s getting married.  And he’s totally the “lid to her pot”! Have you ever talked to Katrina at all? She’s a pretty unique girl. But this guy is unique right along with her!  My favorite thing she said that night about her fiancé was “He’s extremely intelligent and he doesn’t mind that I am too!”  Isn’t that hilarious! And then the guy, Josh, trapped Bob and told him all about some kind of nuclear reactor something for at least 15 minutes. He asked Bob if he wanted him to explain the reactor thing and Bob said no that’s ok, but then Josh said “come on, it’s not that hard to understand.” And then went on about it.  It’s so great people like that can find each other!

We were supposed to get together with Casey too while we were there, but Kami had family come in too so they hung out with them instead.

I went to girls camp this week.  I only went for 2 days and 2 nights because I split the week with another leader.  That was a great amount of time at girls camp! It was a good time.  So testimony-building for the girls.  And there was a fire up there in the next canyon all week we were there, but we didn't smell smoke or anything.  But we came home 4th of July morning and by that afternoon the fire had jumped canyons and they were evacuating the mountain.  Now they won't have girls camp up there for at least the next 2 weeks.

On the 4th, I got home from camp that morning.  I packed and got ready for our trip to Utah and then that night we had the Gunnels over to swim and bbq.  Then the Pettingills and Harmons came over too for fireworks.  It was really nice.
