Spring update

Things are going much the same here at the Gunn household. I feel bad we haven't been very good at updating the blog, so mostly I'm writing to let you know we really are still alive. We got to go to Tom's mission reunion last weekend, and of course we forgot to bring along our camera. Really smart, that... We had a really nice time. Tom got to see people he hasn't seen since his mission, and we finally caught up with friends we've had the good intention of inviting over but never do. Tom's phone died about the time we moved up here to Midvale, so he didn't have any phone numbers or contact information for many of these people. We're looking forward to spending time with these friends in the near future (and already have dates set, or it wouldn't happen, lol).

We've had a long, harsh winter here in Utah, as a lot of you would attest. For awhile there, it seemed like Spring would never decide to grace us with her presence. It seems however, that she is finally here to stay (Okay, I realize that means it could snow tomorrow, but I'm finding the silver lining here!). We just had the most beautiful weather this weekend, it was in the 60's and 70's the whole time, and we actually had our windows open all day Sunday.

Ash was sick during the week, so she needed us to run her down our three flights of stairs about every hour for a full day so she could do her business outside. I'm so grateful she's so well-trained! This could have meant some pretty serious scrubbing, but she never once in her illness had an accident. She's feeling much better now, and is back to her old antics of begging for any scrap of food she thinks she has a chance at getting. We love having her around, and I'm enjoying taking longer walks with her now that the weather is getting nicer. She loves any excuse to be outside, especially if it involves being with us, her pack.

We love you all and wish you the best! We'll at least be posting more photos for my birthday soon, and I'll try to be better at updates.
