Memorial Day in Wellington




We had a great time visiting Dad Wilson in Wellington over Memorial Day. It was great having an opportunity to decorate the graves of Mom Wilson, Todd, Michael, and Grandma and Grandpa Bunderson. I love hearing Brad reminisce about the great times he shared with each of these important people in his life. It's especially fun to hear stories about Todd, I wish I could have known him. As it is, I know enough of him to know what a terrific person he was. It's fun to share those stories with our Todd and help him realize what a great person his namesake was and how much he has to live up to. Family is so, so important. We're blessed to have such beautiful examples on both sides.

Father's Day Weekend




We just spent a wonderful weekend in Wellington with Dad Wilson! Thanks for your wonderful hospitality, Dad. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I overheard Todd and Kate talking in the playroom where they were raving about how cool Grandpa Wilson is and how awesome his house is! Todd even tried to talk us in to staying an extra day, which would have gladly done if only we didn't have work to come back to. Maybe next time! While in Wellington we had a great visit, went out for a Father's Day dinner, then took a tour of Price where Brad showed the kids all his old haunts. They LOVE to hear all his crazy stories about his youth, so it's fun for them to see the places where some of these "infamous" events took place! We capped off Saturday evening with a visit to a really neat new-ish dinosaur park in Price where we enjoyed watching the kids play and burn off some energy before bedtime. We enjoyed spending Sunday morning with Dad and attending church together before heading home. Can't wait for our next visit.
