Wow! After an eventful late night, we slept in pretty long. We finally made to Utah after 10, and by the time we claimed our luggage and met up with Eric and Time, it was almost 11:30. It did not help that we distracted Eric on the way home and caused him to get a speeding ticket. 😞 Doesn’t seem like the best start to our trip.
   However, everything was great from there. It was a bit chilly, with rain/snow mixed together all day, but it felt fabulous! The view from Eric’s was incredible.
   Lucy was intrigued by Eric. ☺️She also LOVED Aspen.     Lucy was so sick for so long, it is so nice she can finally rest.     Lucy slept for 3 hours while we ate lunch and went exploring mansions in the mountains. (That included scoping out the deer.😉)    After a little playtime in Aspen’s dog food, we headed to Provo for Brie’s banquet.   The views are absolutely beautiful here!  A lot of the flowers are beginning to bloom. It was so great to see Brie! I have missed her so bad.  The banquet was very nice. We are so proud of Brie and all her hard work!   We got to eat dinner on BYU’s official china. We had salad, rolls, chicken with an almond sauce, roasted potatoes and veggies, and the most heavenly strawberry cake with white chocolate crusted bottom. Yum! Afterwards, we strolled the walkways of campus with Brie. Lucy loved hanging her head out of my jacket just staring at her sister. It was hilarious because she did it for about 5 minutes straight! Brie had to show us the library before we headed back to Eric’s house. It was  wonderful evening.
