Aunt Sarah’s 80th birthday

The week after Ellie’s baptism we found ourselves at my Aunt Sarah’s 80th birthday party in Richfield.
It has been years since we made it to my mom’s old stomping grounds in Richfield. It was nice to pay the little old town a visit.
We spent the day there, along with my folks who were visiting from New York and Brian and his family.
There was an open house at the Richfield Senior Center. I managed to lock our van keys in the vehicle at the end of the event so we had to hang around for another hour or so to get the keys retrieved by a tow truck service with their fancy unlocking equipment.
All of us stopped in Provo for dinner at Outback Steakhouse and had to wait way too long on a Saturday night for our meal. By the time we got home we were exhausted.
But it was fun to visit with family and be there supporting Sarah and her family to celebrate her most impressive milestone. I hope I don’t live to be 80. Just sayin.

We picked apples in Sarah's back yard. Here I am on a ladder, up in the tree.
