The Troops Are Gathering

The family is beginning to arrive for Katy's graduation. Maren, Gavin, and the boys arrived on Saturday (18 April) and the joyous reunion with the cousins began.

Finn and Harry have had fun playing with Holdie

Lizzie and Meg joined them for lunch yesterday

Tuesday, 21 April, Grandmother flew in from Arizona. We spent the afternoon in SLC touring the Conference Center, which Grandmother had never visited. We ate supper at Greek Souvlaki and had a short tour of SLC before returning to Provo.
