This past weekend was Brigham City's annual Peach Days celebration. Brigham City is where I grew up and each September I would look forward to the big weekend when I could socialize all weekend. This year was no exception. I love to go and see who I will run into. This year I ran into my favorite High School teacher. His name is Jim Fuller. The moment I saw him, I felt myself light up. He was awesome. He was like a dad to me. He noticed me at the same time and we gave each other a big hug. It's been 11 years since I've gradutated and at that moment it felt like yesterday. It always has amazed me how fast time passes me by. I had my girls with me and it was so fun to show him my family. There is so many people there and we couldn't talk long, but I wish we could have. I ran into a few of my old friends and we caught up on our lives. This year, it felt like winter. It rained on us during the parade, and the rest of the day everyone walked around with pants, jackets, and hats. The best part about Peach days, even more than seeing everyone, is being with my family. We stayed with my grandma, which is "grandma great" to my girls. They love being there and she loves having us there. Whit sat and did her hair and make-up for what seemed like hours. They talked about school and Whit's friends. Then Whitney asked her about the "olden days". I love to watch my kids with her. I love to see the generations between them disappear and listen to their conversations. We were able to have Sunday dinner with my family. We watched a home video of my nephew being born, and laughed at what a terror he is now. It was a good weekend. There really is no place like home.
