Jared arrived at our house early Feb. 7 at 5:30 a.m. He had flown into Las Vegas, where he was picked up by an old mission companion, Brady and his wife, Melissa. Then they all headed for Provo, where they were to spend the night at our house. They thought they would get here about 2:30 a.m., but rolled in at 5:30! Needless to say, they all went to bed, and then around 11:00 a.m., Jared emerged from the downstairs bedroom and we got to visit! We ended up going out for a late lunch at Magleby's Fresh and Ryan and Becca and Janie joined Dad, me, and Josh for our all too short visit with Jared. He managed to see Grandma Jackson before he met us, and then later went to Salt Lake for the Keith Neilson's wedding and reception. Then Sunday, they all left for Las Vegas again with a stop in St. George to see Grandma Mimi and John. They had a wonderful lunch together and then it was off to the airport. Whew! What a quick but productive trip! We loved seeing Jared and talking with him. How much we miss him! We wished he and Jen and Tanner were close by!
