A quick visit with Daphne!!

This past weekend Daphne was able to fly in from Utah and spend a crazy, busy weekend with us. We sure miss having her live so close, and were so glad to have her around. She was a good sport and joined us on many of the events we had for the weekend. 

Friday she and I went shopping and visited Ragnar at work. She got to meet a couple of his coworkers and their dogs and even brought treats for them! We brought her to Hippo burger after for lunch. That evening Ragnar, Cavin, and I had stake soccer so she came and cheered us on as we played.

Saturday we started the morning with our traditional donuts! 

They got in a few games, then we headed to Cavin's solo and ensemble performance. He did awesome and it was a tender mercy that he was able to be moved up so we could all watch him before the soccer games.  He ended up scoring a 1 which is the highest. His judge told him that his piece was very difficult and she didn't even get to play it until college. He is a great cellist and practices a lot. 

After his performance, we hurried over to the fields to watch Deacon and Channing play. They both played well and won their games.

Deacon scored 3 goals and Daphne took some fun pictures. 

Ella painted a gift for a friend and chatted with us, then we went to Sharky's for dinner. 

Finally, Daphne went to watch the dress rehearsal of the "Lamb of God" that Ragnar, Ella, and Cavin were in. 

We got to see it the next day and it was beautiful! I am so glad that Ragnar's love of music has filtered down to our kids and they love to play as well. 

It was a great way to get into the Easter spirit. 

Daphne left early Sunday morning. I wish we had had more time, but it was nice to see her. We sure miss her and wish she was still 4 hours away. We are so grateful for an amazingly supportive aunt and sister/in law.
