We spent the weekend with my family. We had a celebration; my parents 40th wedding anniversary. I can't believe we didn't take a picture! All my siblings were there, my grandma and aunt, and all the grandkids, except for cute Kylan. I'm grateful to my parents for providing us with a stable and happy home; sticking it out through good times and bad. Thanks mom and dad!
My mom, Caitlin, Toni, and I went shopping for the treat bags for the inpatient kids at PCMC that we're going to deliver on Friday. We found some fun things and my mom paid for it all. Thanks again, mom!
My mom's friend, Deb also gave us a generous gift to help out. We really appreciate the amazing people who have supported us throughout our journey. In big and small ways, we have really been touched by the thoughtful support and kindness of so many.
We left for home later than we had intended on Sunday and I was a little concerned about how late the kids would be getting to bed on a school night. Little did I know what we would come home to, a huge fire on the mountain. Our neighborhood looked different, covered in thick smoke. Our neighbors were leaving as we pulled in, going to stay with relatives. Our house was hazy with smoke and didn't smell too great. Caleb's High School was used as the evacuation sight for families displaced by the fire, so school was cancelled for him on Monday. We let Caitlin stay home too. Crazy times. We're happy things are getting back to normal and more homes were not destroyed or damaged.

Sounds like a nice weekend. That's nice of your mom too pay for all those treats, I want pictures when you are done with them. That fire was crazy, we were lucky that the wind was blowing smoke away from our house.
Kudos to parents who provide their children with a foundation of love and security! Not an easy task. Happy 40th Jamie's mom and dad.
I forgot that Caleb went to Herriman High. What a way to get a day off. The smoke has cleared here. Hope it is better there, too.
Phew! Scary. I'm glad you are all okay.
