Isn't it amazing that when you see someone for the first time in 15 years, having not spoken at all in that time, that it's as though nothing has changed. I went to Nauvoo with Jenni and Joffie Heath; haven't seen them since 1996; and we chatted for 5 hours in the car there and 5 hours in the car back, plus hours while we were there.
Now staying at the Merrills in Kansas City - the kids are completely grown now; Daniel must have been about 4 last time I saw him, now he is 18; Thomas is grown up....(remind me to tell you the story of when I was babysitting and he hid in a locker - I thought he had been kidnapped, terrifying!!) - and now he's 6 foot something and all grown up - where does the time go. Too bad I didn't get to see Stuart; he's away at college. Chatting with Barbara and Markus is like we just saw each other last week. Incredible, and delightful
Here they are - (sorry Joff!!)

I feel like I've seen so much in the last couple of days (Nauvoo/Carthage etc) - but I have NEVER seen anything like this before....have you ever seen the closet of a 5 year look like this?...
...and Jenni was apologetic that it wasn't properly colour coordinated - I really need to sort my closet out, I can't be beaten by a 5 year old!
