Five Months of July

For our anniversary on 9 July 2017, I posted photos of our Sunday travels, including church in Blanding on the way home from Colorado and New Mexico.  I did most of the driving on Kay's days of rest.  She is truly my beautiful, eternal companion!


In 2018, we celebrated our anniversary on a mission p-day break by Anchor Bay, New Baltimore MI.  There was peace by the water that July.


Anniversary Special 2019: A fun train ride from Ogden.  As I walked around the Salt Lake Temple and sat in the Assembly Hall, special memories of Kay, her father, and Grandmother Cannon brought me joy.


On the first Tuesday of July 2020, I posted a progress report including a tire repair at an Ogden bike shop.  And it was a special day, feeling close to my sweetheart Kay.


It seems like every July is about our life together — especially on our 50th in 2021.  Our family met at my place in Bountiful for entertainment and ice cream, then over at our family-tradition restaurant for the buffet dinner.  Next day, Kay’s siblings met at brother Lon’s in Holladay and shared precious memories as tributes after a superb feast.  (My assigned talk focused on music.)  We knew it was young Kay who made us all smile.  Homemade lemon ice cream, their family tradition, was icing on the cake.  How sweet it is — the time of our life ... especially in the memorable month of July!
