I went through the hard ordeal of saying bye to the Ranes boys twice in one week. First time when they left one day before we did for Provo. The second days later when they left Provo for California.
We played some ball on the front lawn while their mom packed the car.
Ray has a pretty good arm. Hopefully it won't be long before they are waving bye again before a road trip back home.
While in Utah, we experienced the new Draper Temple. Who would have ever imagined that a temple would sit on the mountainside above Draper and Relation Street. Certainly not me that first time that Glen turned off the freeway just past Point of the Mountain in 1974 and drove east in the dark. He claimed that his grandparents lived here. It was only like the 2nd or 3rd date and I hoped it was true as we drove along a very rural dark road. There was no temple to light the way.
It is beautiful and peaceful and there are incredible views of the Salt Lake Valley AND Relation Street. We enjoyed our session and a celestial room which rises dramatically overhead. So lovely!

Oh Laurel I'm sorry now the boys are in California. But don't feel sad because California is right there. The pictures Temple are gorgeous!! Thanks for keeping your blog updated.
Mom, it really is such a short drive, especially compared to Utah. Thanks for all you help, I couldn't have done it without you.
I think things will get better and better for us, too. Wouldn't that be a relief?
