We were blessed with a visit from my parents last weekend. They arrived Friday afternoon and were here until Tuesday. When they arrived, we had blue skies and warm weather, but by the time they left, it was cold and dreary! I'll have to write about our current winter weather in another post.
The first night my folks were here, we took them up Big Cottonwood Canyon:
The next day, we had a combo birthday bash for the boys. Thankfully, it was 75 and sunny for the party--the last summery day of the year apparently! Phew!

I think we wore out the parentals the first 2 days and we spent the rest of their visit mostly around the house.

| Thanks for all the stories, Papa! |
It was great to have our first visitors! It motivated us to get some projects done and get more settled and also gave us a chance to start figuring out what to do when people are in town! Thanks for coming to see us, Mom and Dad! Anyone else who wants to come--we're ready anytime and love to host!
