Right after Thanksgiving, Aly and I took a little trip to Utah to share with the Roberts a very special weekend. This trip was a little different as Aly is still recuperating from her accident and needed "special care". With crutches and a wheel-chair, and needing to sit in the front of the plane due to the fact that she couldn't bend her knee, we got to be part of the wheel-chair brigade!
See all the white-haired people in wheel-chairs ahead of us? There were 7 all together...and yes...Aly was the youngest! But we got to be first in line since she needed to sit in the front row!
Nobody else on the plane....that was a first!!
We arrived to help the Roberts celebrate Jacob's accomplishment in achieving the rank of an Eagle, and also to hear Bryant's farewell talk as he would be leaving soon to serve in the Minnesota Minneapolis Mission. Since Aly and I had never been to Temple Square during the Christmas season, we ventured out one chilly evening to witness the beauty of Temple Square. It was a wee-bit busy, but the lights and feelings around the temple were breath-taking!
We enjoyed our quick trip as the Roberts pulled out all the stops to make us feel comfortable in their home, fed us with delicious food, and pampered us with their hospitality. We are so proud of Bry for making the decision to serve the Lord and dedicate 2 years in His service. We are blessed indeed with family who opens their home and shares everything they have. We love the Roberts!!
