Don and I went to Richfield to Kirsten and Richard's so we could see them and meet Sarah
for the first time. We had a wonderful time. Kirsten is always 
so warm and welcoming that we love to be around her. Rebecca's bubbly fun way of expressing herself (with lots of hand movements involved) made me smile. Spencer was away at play practice for some 
of the evening so we didn't get to hear as much from him. He plans to be an actor some day and will make a good one. Richard made a scrumptious pasta dinner with noodles alfredo, wonderful vegetable dishes and a fruit lasagna for dessert. It was a joy to hear Sarah's fun laugh. Her eyes sparkle and she is full of enthusiasm. Ken and Devi entertained us, too--it was especially funny to see Ken growl and scare Devi who ran to the bedroom to hide. (Devi is the dog, in case you didn't know that.) Don and I also found the Mystic Springs (hot mineral water formations and pools) fascinating. My family records say that my great, great-grandfather, Abraham Washburn, helped found Monroe, Utah and was most likely the first white man ever to soak in those HOT waters. We stopped at the Monroe cemetery to view the grave sites of several of my ancestors. We capped the trip off by attending a session of the Manti temple, my favorite temple in many ways. All in all it was a good trip!

It was wonderful to have you all at our home. I need to visit the hot springs sometime. We've been here 8 years and still haven't seen them. Except Spencer. He went with some friends.
