Corinne and Richard's visit

I don't remember the occasion that the three of us are in Shannon's car, but this was taken on a Sunday. 
Maybe we stayed after church for something???
We took this picture at the game night we had at our house. These are my two new friends. Gale Couch is in the middle and Angie Erickson is on the end. Fred and I have found these two other couples and we get together to play games and eat food. We are all planning to go on a cruise together in 2024. 
It's so fun to have new friends to get together with.

Angie got me started on the app BeReal. I'm only connected with Gale, Angie, Scott & Jess. It's still kind of fun. I don't have a whole lot of variety to my pictures. Most of the the time when I get the notification to take a picture, we are sitting in our recliners or many times on I'm on the toilet. 
I'm not taking a picture in there. 
We received an Amazon package with this book in it. I showed the book to Fred and asked if he had ordered it. We both were puzzled. Then I look through the receipts and found the note that it was sent by Evan and Graham. It was hilarious! What a fun surprise!!!
Corinne and Richard flew into town for about four days. Corinne wanted Richard to have a flying experience before he flies to Michigan for his mission. On the first day, we all split up into a girl group and a boy group. We girls went to Olive Garden for lunch and then to the International BYU dancers performance. The boys went to Cafe Rio and Top Golf.
This was Sunday after church. Corinne was so good to play games with Marissa. I made a big spaghetti dinner for everyone. We ate that spaghetti every day after that. It was a very handy leftover. 
On Monday, Shannon drove us all down to Colorado Springs to the Michael Garman Museum. A very unique place. We had a very good time there. Unexpected. Each of us were given a little scavenger hunt page with four items to find. It took all of us helping each other to find our items. 
The prize was a miniature candy.

Corinne, Richard, Fred and I were able to go to the Temple to perform sealings with our family names. Afterward, we stopped by the Deseret Book store. They have a map there for missionaries to pin their mission locations. Richard got to to that. 
This picture was taken just before Corinne and Richard left for the airport. 

My pictures got out of date order, but it's too much work to fix it. So here are the pictures we took outside of the Denver Temple.  


  Corinne should come every year with just one child for a visit.
She thought that was a good idea. 
This was a very nice time to spend with Richard one on one before he leaves on his mission.
I'm so glad Corinne made that happen. We enjoyed our time so very much!
