Mom/Dad's 40th Anniversary
Berkeley and I flew to Utah this morning. I am here for work and I brought along Berkeley so he can spend some 1-on-1 time with Grandma and Grandpa. I timed my work trip to coincide with my Mom and Dad's 40th Wedding Anniversary (ruby); they were married 40 years ago today. To celebrate, the Berrett family gathered at Mark/Jen's house for a dinner. Everyone was there with the exception of my girls (Kristy, Eliana, and Olivia). We enjoyed each others company and the kids had a great time playing together. Berkeley was especially happy to see his Berrett cousins.

Before today I had not been to Mark/Jen's new home in Alpine... they moved almost a year ago. It is a nice place and is located immediately next to Burgess Park in Alpine (UT). The park includes 5 baseball diamonds, a huge open soccer field, 2 sand volleyball courts, 2 tennis courts, a basketball court, a walking trail, and several children's play areas. From the kitchen nook window, Mark and Jen can see the basketball court and the tennis courts just on the other side of the fence on the west side of their property. Imagine taking all of the parks on the Sammamish plateau, merging them together, and then placing that "mega-park" smack dab next to our house... that would be the equivalent of what Mark and Jen enjoy. It's amazing.
