Weekend with Visitors

It was a great weekend visiting with the Strassers and celebrating a happy family event with them. Rana & Charlie & Logan & Marni arrived Friday night and on Saturday we went to the Salt Lake Temple for the sealing of Calvin Kirkham Strasser (great nephew) to his parents, Lila and Joe (nephew). It was wonderful. "Little" Calvin was born on July 24th and adopted shortly thereafter. He now weighs a whopping 21 pounds at 6 months and has red hair like his namesake. We spent some time on Temple Square. The weather was sunny, but a bit breezy and nippy. We also enjoyed playing games...Apples to Apples (Charlie dominated both rounds) and BeRhymed (I haven't laughed so hard in a long time especially over Rana's rendition of the "F" and "P" words!!!)

Thanks for sharing the great pictures of my family! I really wanted to come...but with Darwin already being gone, it just didn't work out. (He is in Florida for two weeks. One week of training, and then a week with his brother's family)
