After Parker and Emily moved out, Justin decided that he would rather have the room we had put Nathan in as his office than the room he was in. The room he was in gets pretty warm as it has two walls with windows and the morning sun comes in there first. It also doesn't have any solid walls to put shelves up as two have windows and one wall is a closet. I have been working on getting him some shelves put together and he ordered a nice desk so we can make him a proper office. Since he will be working from home for who knows how long, he really needed it. He got a desk that he can adjust to sit or stand so he can move during his long work days. I think it all looks pretty good! He is very happy to have a place that is his and he can put all his hobbies and pictures and awards he has.

Justin's new office

Camille's Wedding
Camille started dating a guy named Jeff this year. He has a cute little daughter. He lives in Idaho Falls but comes up to Utah often as that is where his ex-wife and daughter live. About a month ago Camille moved to Idaho Falls to start working there and to begin to start her life with Jeff. Because of Covid, they put their original plans off and had a small wedding at a friend's barn. There was not a big reception but instead all the wedding attendees stayed after for pizza and cake. It was really nice. The barn and property were beautiful. I can't believe I didn't take a single picture. We were able to see Kelly, Sara and Adam, Dalana, Mark and John and of course Camille, Gary, Rachael, Alicia, Aubrey, Thomas, Meridith and Julio. George and RaNae could not come over as they have sold their house in Kooskia and needed to get everything moved out of it this weekend. They were a little worried about attending with Covid numbers still coming up too. I think all of us were a little nervous, especially us from Utah where masks are required everywhere and then we come to Idaho and almost nobody had them on. I am glad Justin and I could go and support Camille. I wish her and Jeff and Charlie (the little girl) so much happiness.

Pretty little park
Hannah and I took Hope on a walk today. I wanted to go over by the temple so we walked around the section of our neighborhood there. We came upon the cutest little park. I do love how many parks our neighborhood has. Hannah and Hope posed for a picture. Well, Hannah did. Hope tolerated Hannah picking her up.

Graveside service for Uncle John
A few days after our reunion we received word that Uncle John had passed away. He had been battling cancer for quite awhile. Uncle John was the best. He was quirky and funny and always positive. He could sure make me, and everyone else, laugh. He was a great guy. He will surely be missed by friends and family. I was able to watch his funeral via Zoom on Sunday and then Monday I drove down to stay with my parents that night and attend the graveside service Tuesday morning. Tracy and Sarah were able to attend too. The assisted living home let grandma out for the morning to come. What a blessing. We all had to take extra precautions since she was there. It was good to see my cousins Richard and Shauna and my aunt Sharon. Richard did a wonderful job at both the funeral and graveside.
Aunt Connie and Dennis had already left so they are missing from the picture of all the siblings that were able to make it.Afterwards, dad and mom, Sarah and Tracy and I went to lunch at a new burger/sandwich place in Jerome. I made dinner for dad and mom that night (tuscan chicken) and then we watched Little House on the Prairie. I had planned on going home after lunch but brought clothes just in case I decided to stay longer. Dad asked me if I would have a change to golf while down so of course I had to stay to do that!
If only I could hit the ball straight up the course as consistent as mom. Hers may not go as far but they are always straight up to the hole and easy to find.
The Jerome course really is beautiful right among all the fields. Apparently, it used to be a ranch and the owner of it turned it into the golf course.
