playdate with margie

Last week we had a small-kine BYUH/PCC reunion when Margaret Racule Vance came up to Utah for a visit with her two kids. I haven't seen her since 2005 - BEFORE her oldest daughter was born. She was my Fiji lead at night show for a few years before my mission and attended BYUH while we were all there. It was so nice to visit with each other and eat Tianas yummy ham sandwiches and all the other food everyone brought. Though it was reeeeally cold, the kiddies had fun running around, playing on the swings and playing with each other.

Fun! But I gotta say, the mommy's all look cold!! For some reason kids don't care if it's cold when they are at the playground. Troopers!!
