Four years ago yesterday, our friends
Cheryl and Miguel decided to take their niece Payton to the Cornbelly's
activity at Thanksgiving Point. They
asked if they could take Jenna with them.
Jenna and Payton got along well
together. Payton was two years older
than Jenna, but shorter. Many people who
saw them together believed they were sisters.
I did not go with them, but had remembered the event as Cheryl had
tagged me in several photos on facebook.
I had the opportunity of seeing them again when facebook memory page showed
me the photos.
Cheryl had taken quite a few pictures; I
don't have permission to post the ones
she took - there were several of Jenna
and Payton.

I thought it fitting to see the photos
while thinking about Jenna and commenting about the weather I hoped wouldn't
spoil yesterday's plans. She did get to
go to the corn maze after all, and rode the hayride and brought home a huge
pumpkin that she had retrieved from the pumpkin patch. It was a great day.
Roland started breakfast/dinner early
as his clock is on mountain though we live in Pacific. After the oven was warmed up (guess we did use
it after all) and had cinnamon rolls ready to go in, he looked at the clock in
the kitchen and realized that the missionaries wouldn't be arriving for almost
two hours. Whoops.
I love to watch Roland cook. He is so thoughtful and so precise. He made everything on the small skillet,
though I had found a much larger pan to use.
He ended up using it to put all back into the oven just to keep it warm.
Dinner was wonderful.
