St. George Weekend Trip

This past Saturday, Roger and I took a trip to St. George. We stayed with our friends, Jerry and Marie Ohman. We arrived at their home at 6pm. Marie being such a gracious hostess and good friend, she had dinner waiting for us. We ate a delicious meal and then we played a game that I have never played before, called hand and foot. It was fun. Its not that its a new game, only to me as I am not much of a card player. We had a delightful evening and then we went to bed.  The Ohmans are from our home ward and have just purchased this beautiful home in St. George to escape the winters of Northern Utah.  We were so glad for their kind offer to come and stay with them.

 We were down there to attend Roger's youngest son's newest arrival, Serenity McClellan's, baby blessing in Cedar City on Sunday Morning.  The Ohman's genearosity made that a much more enjoyable trip than it would have been. It's difficult to drive that 6 hrs down there just to turn around and drive it home again after a church meeting.  We had such an enjoyable time with the Ohman's.

The trip from St. George to Cedar City was very short in comparrison to the trip from Brigham city to St. George. When we left St. George the temperature was 23 degrees and before we arrived in Cedar City, the thermostat showed that the temperature was 3 degrees. Brrrrrr.. it was so very cold!

We had an enjoyable fast and testimony meeting. Echo and her Mother both bore their testimonies. It was good to hear their testimony. The ward in Cedar city has alot of members strong in faith. It was good to attend their meetings and share in their joy and faith. Weston was so glad to see his Grandpa that he just jumped up in Rogers lap and hugged his neck. It's always good to see the grandkids. Jolly Roger, wasn't so Jolly. He spent his time with Katie and Dana who sat behind us. Clark and Ashley sat on the row in front of us.   We took a few photos then we took off to head back to Brigham city.  We had a good trip. Riding in the car that long is a real killer to my back. Other than that, it was a great trip.  Can't wait to return to St. George and visit with Jerry and Marie again and play alittle more hand and foot.
