Uncle Clayton's Visit


Richard's brother Clayton came for a visit in July. We had the time of our lives with him. We spent a day at the river, one day going to the temple (Uncle Clayton treated everyone to ice cream afterwards), one day was the deck project , another day the kids went with Clayton to the college amphitheater and performed parts from Romeo and Juliet. We went to a car show and picked berries to make pie and jam.

After all this fun, the best part of the trip was the days we spent camping on the coast. We got to see the Haceta Head light house, tide pools, and camped in a great campground. The kids took a hike with Dad and Clayton which ended up being more like the trail of tears. They also made some sweet sand castles and tunnels. We took about 500 pictures. It was a vacation to be remembered.

I'm not usually one to meddle, but it looks like your kids' Uncle Clayton is single. If he ever needs a date in Utah, I have a very nice sister who now lives here. Of course, he would have to be as good as the rest of the Vances to be good enough for her; but it looks like he adores his nieces and nephews as much as she adores hers. I'm just saying...

I love how having company makes people get out and enjoy the great sights and adventures close to home. We've found the same to be true right here in Utah Valley.
