Today Grammie, you and I drove up to Salt Lake to spend the weekend up at Swiss day's. It's a festival that I have heard about for a long time, but never attended before. We were invited to go with the Roger Family, which is always so fun to hang with them.
We got to see Aunt Jali, Uncle Geary, Daniel and Natalie before they left for the Labor Day weekend to go camping. I was glad we got to see each other if even for a little bit.

We drove on up to Heber City Saturday morning and arrived just in time for the parade. I love home town parades and have decided that we don't have the opportunity to go to enough of them!

Now, this is what I will refer to as the "dark time" After the parade we headed into the festival, booth area to get some lunch and do some shopping, sometime between getting lunch and shopping I realized that I had lost the camera. I couldn't believe it. I was sad, but didn't beat myself up too bad, as accidents happen. However, let me try to paint the visual image for you... Rows upon rows of craft vendors selling their stuff.... Rows upon rows of crafts Grammie and Mommy were buying. Do you get the picture? The best part of the whole day was the fact that Papa Rogers and Grandma Roger's dear friends and previous mission couple friends live in an old pioneer style home right across the street from the festival. They have a huge yard that is fenced in by not just any fence, but yes, a white picket fence. Their grass is so green and beautiful with huge tree's complete with a tire swing and hammock. It is truly my small town dream home and yard. Oh and did I mention their was a porch swing! Papa Rogers and Grandma Rogers spent the majority of the day on the porch visiting and helping with the grandkids as everyone came and went as needed, it was wonderful to have a comfortable "facility" to use. After a full day of shopping you had the pleasure of taking an afternoon nap on the porch swing. As I sat their swinging you back and forth I just couldn't stop thinking of how lucky we are to have quiet, beautiful moments like that.
And then the miracle moment of the day... I decided as we left to walk by the lost and found booth and guess what? Someone turned in my camera! So to round off the day nicely... a picture of a man with his dog on his motorcycle!
Seriously! Look at this!!

After the train ride we drove back into Salt Lake to meet up with our dear friends Swendy and Becky. We met at Ms. Swendy's day school, which you loved. Their were so many things to look at and play with, including Becky's doggies, which you loved. It was so fun to see them and quickly get caught up. I love these two lady friends so much!
