The day after Christmas was very relaxing and ended with a nice dinner with Ryan's family. Thursday we took three of the kids to my sister Jacque's house and Dallin went and stayed with his cousin Kolby so Ryan and I could take a trip with the baby to St. George. It was a quick trip but totally worth it. It was the first time in 10 years I've been able to see one of my best friend's from high school, Shannon. I finally got to meet her sweet husband Tim and her beautiful two month old baby girl Ava Jane. They were visiting her mom who has lived in St. George for the past seven years.
We had a really nice dinner with Ryan's friend Mark and his wife Eliza who also live in St. George and then went to see Shannon for an hour or so Thursday night and then for a couple more hours on Friday morning. It was nice to get caught up on her life and know that she is happy and doing really well. She also put the pressure on me to get going with plans for our twenty year reunion in 2012. After such a nice visit I felt more motivated to get together with old friends even if it means organizing the event.
On a side note, Ryan's sister Deb decided to make a trip up to Utah that same week. We met them in Cedar City on our way down to St. George and their way up to stay with Rich and Joy. We chatted for a few minutes and then were back on our way. When we got back into town we spent the next couple of days getting the cousins together for late nights and play dates and dinners and all sorts of fun.
