We decided to escape as a family and have some time together before things got crazy and it was time for Cassie to leave. The weather wasn't totally cooperative, and we saw everything from rain and snow to heat and sunshine. We visited a lot of our favorite picnic spots and getaways. Cassie wanted to enjoy the beautiful mountains around us. It was a great day, with lots of fun memories.

| Gentri performing with The Mormon Tabernacle Choir |
Our day began at Temple Square where we saw Gentri perform with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. The smile on Cassie's face in the picture above speaks VOLUMES about how she felt being there. She discovered Gentri a few months ago, and they have been a big part of her mission preparations. They have encouraged her, taught her, and soothed her as she prepared to embark on this adventure. She was overwhelmed with joy at being there.
Pretty sure she almost fainted here. These 3 are some of her greatest heroes and role models. You would think it was the 70's and she had seen the Beatles. This was the HIGHLIGHT of her whole day, week and probably year! LOL After shaking their hands, she totally did a Marsha Brady and said she was never washing her hand again.

These two have shared a special bond since the day she was born.

Until we meet again. Our last family picture until she returns home.
Thank You to the kind gentleman who offered to take it with all of us in it. |
It was such a beautiful day. I will be reflecting on these pictures daily until she returns. The beauty and the memories soothes my soul.
