Will knew his parents were going somewhere, so he put himself in the suitcase to make sure he wouldn't be left behind.
Hanna flew from Casper, Wyoming to Great Falls so she could come early to spend a few days with us. Lucy and I drove to the airport to get her - we traveled some snowy roads. That night we got to watch Carly's basketball team play against LCI.
On Thursday, Hanna and Lucy went to the temple in the morning. The Perkins stayed in Idaho Falls Wednesday night and got to Cardston on Thursday afternoon. That night we went to ride horses at the Academy.
On Friday morning we made cookies for Will's birthday and then Will hung out with Grandpa & Grandma Nunn while the rest of us went to the temple to do sealings.
Then we drove to Okotoks to watch Carly's basketball tournament. After they won their first game, it was a foggy drive to our hotel in High River. The next morning after breakfast, we went swimming. Will loved it.
Then we watched Carly's team win their second game. Then we had to kill time in the afternoon eating lunch and shopping until the championship game. James had stayed home because they were weaning calves, but he came up on Saturday and made it to Carly's championship game. Her team played great and won first place.
On Sunday, we got to listen to Lucy give her mission farewell talk. It was a really good Sacrament Meeting. We sang "Spirit of God" and "Called to Serve" (I may or may not have sent in a request). There was another missionary leaving, Maxwell McKay so he also spoke. Then Lucy gave such a great talk. She finished her talk about an hour before church started. Several times during the week she opened her notebook, wrote Lucy's Talky Talk and then closed the book. It just didn't come. On the way home from the basketball tournament, Austin gave her a dozen ideas. When we got home, she started typing. She finished in the morning.
After Sacrament Meeting, we had a lunch at Austin's office. We had a sandwich bar and chips, and we asked friends to bring salads and desserts. Then Hanna and Jill had to leave to head back home.
It was such a great weekend.
