I was so tired on Friday. I thought I was coming down with a cold, but maybe it was just tiredness instead. It seemed we had things going on every night of the week last week and it just wore me out. I had all sorts of housework, project type plans for Saturday. But, Friday night, Greg in his wisdom said, "You need to get outdoors to recharge your batteries." He helped me clean the house and run our errands on Saturday morning. Then later in the afternoon on Saturday, we went to the Cress Creek Nature Trail to watch the sunset. I don't know what it is about watching the sunset, but when you take time out of your life to just sit and do that, it is a most amazing experience. It's also amazing watching a sunrise.
Greg has to do a talk on Strengthing Marriage in our ward conference. I told him to add watching the sunset together to his list of things to say in the talk.
As you know, Greg is a most calm person. I'm so grateful I have him to help me put things in perspective. Every Type A personality person needs a calming influence in their life to tell them that the things they get all worked up and stressed out about really aren't that important. Our kitchen remodel can take a little longer.....watching sunsets is better.

I'm glad you were able to get outside and enjoy the sunset. Your picture turned out so beautiful! I love the Cress Creek hike. It was one of mine and Beau's first dates and we sat up there and watched the sunset and talked for a few hours! We know you are tired, but we so appreciate all of your help right now!

I'm glad that Dad helped you relax and take a break. I love your top picture with the sunset. I need to go there and see it in person!

Terri...I'm so glad you got to go see the beauties of God's creations! I think that is why he made this world so beautiful because he knew we needed the peace it provides.
