Visitors

Lorrie, Brett, and Portia arrived here this evening. We all went to Chuck a Rama for our dinner. Portia seemed to wander around the food tables in amazement and really did enjoy it all. We plan on having a picnic tomorrow after church. I get to make a cake and a salad. It is always great when all of us sisters get together for dinner. We each bring something and it all tastes wonderful. Our men really love the variety of food when we all chip in. The weather here is soooo nice.

A wonderful concert.

Last night I, Spencers and Annette attended a wonderful concert held at DSU. It was a fund raiser for the St. George Musical Theater. The main performer was George Dyer who sang magnificently. I cried when he sang "Bring Him Home". He sang several songs songs from Les Miserables. Music of the Night, and Phantom of the Opera. Everything he sang permeated my soul. There were other performers who were great as well. I couldn't believe I could attend such a wonderful concert for only $15.00. Afterwards we went for ice cream at the Iceburg. Marianne shamed me into ordering some even though I wanted to pass on it. So, Annette and I shared and then sent the rest home for Clyde. Those milkshakes are huge. They ought to be ashamed selling such large portions.

We are so blessed to live here in St. George and to enjoy the great talent that is here. It is top notch and can be compared to anything in Los Angeles or New York (so we have been told by people who know). My only regret about tonight is that my husband chose not to go with us and missed out on all of this beautiful music that I know he would have enjoyed. Oh welll, I guess the Jazz game won out.
