a beautiful day...yesterday was a glorious day!! conrad and i went to SLC for a third day concert and david crowder opened for them. it was amazing!! i love concerts because you can feel the passion of everyone around you for the music...i truly believe music brings people together. we had an awesome time worshipping God and being in His presence. so this was the last part of our day...let me go back to the beginning...a couple we were good friends with from our pest control summer in DC live close to SLC and we arranged to get together with them. it was SOOOOO fun to see them and catch up--i can't believe it's been 2 years!! they have a 1 1/2 year old boy and a 4 wk. old girl. so cute! i love this couple, and they will always have a special place in mine and conrad's hearts. heather and i used to go to the gym and watch dawson's creek together in the am, and then just hang out till i worked. sundan and conrad were partners as they knocked doors. lots of hearts to hearts happen when you're with someone all the time and working an emotionally draining job. i've never seen conrad click so well with someone. as couples, we took weekend trips to ocean city, ate at red robin and went sight-seeing a lot, and sat under one umbrella on the national mall as we waited for the rain to clear on the 4th of july. we have lots of memories. when we were together it was like non-stop conversation and it was fun to catch up. i held baby elise most the time. conrad read a book to ryder. yeah, i officially want a baby!! can't help myself. k, God, give us wisdom on timing!! conrad had fun with the kids and we ended up hanging out for like 5 hours. hopefully they'll come to the farm this winter and visit, maybe come to church with us... they're lds, but not the snotty type. we all talk about religion and it's not taboo. i like open-minded mormons...i hope that came out right. anyway, it was a wonderful day, and probably the best thing was getting to be with conrad for 10+ waking hours in a row!!
