How excited we were to know that Scott and Terry Olsen were coming up for education week! And more than that, they wanted to stay with us! WOO HOO! Boarder Winiecke had just moved in the previous week, but was very amiable and moved to the office so Olsens could have the "guest" room. Ryan (we call him Boarder Winiecke in reference to a cute show we used to watch "The Torkelsons" who had a Boarder Hodges living in their basement) is boarding with us for a few months while he does an internship with the church in Riverton. Something with computer security. Anyway, we are all from the old home ward and it was fun to have the Olsens come! They spoiled us in between their trips to BYU for education week. Brought us chocolate covered cinnamon bears, gifts, bought us dinners and ice cream (the chocolate gelato at costco is my new favorite treat!) and then to top it all off they bought Dave a movie (Ephraims' Rescue) and my scripture bag that I wanted and should not have said it out loud! ha ha. Anyway, we loved having them here. The dinner with them and Budges at Cafe Rio was awesome (Amanda and the boys came with us too...it was a real crowd!). We had fun going back to the Budges and visiting while watching a storm out their big windows. Fun, fun times. The Olsens were supposed to go on Friday night with us to BYU for the performance of 7 Brides for 7 Brothers, but ended up having to leave Friday morning for a family gathering in Idaho. Since we already had the tickets, we invited Amber and Rachel Winiecke to come with us - they obliged! It was fun! Amanda brought David and her friend Shelly came too, and Ryan even bought a ticket (but had to sit somewhere else by himself...sorry!). It was a fun production and we loved it. Walked out that night into a rainstorm. We have been having crazy stormy weather! The next morning there was even snow on Timpanogos! Shocking! We loved having our company here and hope they will come again soon. We made a Utah bucket list to do with them, so I hope they follow through! And of course, SOMEDAY we will do our Alaska cruise with them that we have been planning since who knows when...Love you Terry and Cousin Scotty! Come see us again!!
