Before Braille's Brandon

Ryan didn't die of cancer last year, so he got a hold of his father and brothers and said "Hey, since I didn't die I want to do a man's trip with all of you." Not living close to our immediate family means that all of our sibling time has to be scheduled and arranged, as opposed to a more organic "Hey, let's play basketball tomorrow morning" that some people get to casually set up when living close to their relations.  As luck would have it, three of his brothers and his father were able to set aside time and celebrate with Ryan in Moab. The agenda includes: barbecue, mountain biking, white water rafting, chatting, sleeping, connecting and celebrating.  I'm sure many of my sister in laws will see this and I want to thank you for flying solo for the week. It means a lot to Ryan.  His brother Brandon flew into Utah so that Ryan would have someone to drive down with him, which meant we got to spend Sunday with him. We hit temple square, did a tour of the supernacle, and just enjoyed his company.  What a great time they are going to have (gosh, I hope no one breaks any bones, etc on this trip!)

Preston, Brandon and Simon.

Lovely weather for a temple stroll.

At the top of the new Conference building. It was windy, and crazy large!!!
