Got up and gardened. Translation=pulling things out and transplanting seedlings in the newly made spaces. Then Maren and I went to the Farmer's Market in Provo which is more like a flea market right now. More produce a little later. Lots of jewelry and hair things and food and other stuff. Maren was glad our time was short because she kept on buying hair things. Then, Wayne and I went to a barbecue at his cousin's home--just returned as mission president of the Denmark Copenhagen Mission Then I went for a perm and Wayne had a sand tray client. Then we went to Pizza pie cafe for supper. I liked the pasta the best. Today we went to the mission report given by Doug Olausen (Margaret and Clarence's son) and his family. Two daughters went to Denmark with them.
Lots of family. LouAnn and Ivan stayed with us for a few days. Charlie Loper had his first birthday party. Laurene and Ron came for the weekend. On the fourth we gathered at Rob and Tina's---Laurene and Ron, LouAnn and Ivan, Kimberly and Stephen, Maren and Jeff, Tyson and Janna, Wayne and Elena, Alysa? (David's daughter) and various children attached to the above.
Went with the MacMichaels to sit on their new front lawn and watch the parade pass us by. Kirk, Kathy and Jon came and later, Tina and girls. It was a cute small town parade with Julia in the marching band, the governor of Utah, a huge ward primary, the missionaries, and a half hours worth of people and vehicles going by. Kirk and Jon had run in a 5K earlier that morning, Jon coming in third (with a medal) and Kirk coming in fifth in the old man category.

Ye old undertaker
The world's largest piggy bank?
There was a luau, a carnaval, and will be fireworks tonight. Not a bad celebration.
Then we went over to Kirk's to watch Ghana defeat the USA. No celebration there.
Came home to ripe strawberries, basil ready to cut and dry and miracle!! the asparagus seeds that I planted about a month ago have finally sprouted and are about five inches tall!
