A Weekend With the Boys

I got to spend last weekend with Tristan and the boys at Brian Head Ski Resort. They were on a biking trip. I enjoyed driving the truck to meet them at the bottom of the hill and seeing the beautiful scenery. They actually got me out on a hill on my bike, but it was really a narrow, rocky single trail that traversed a steep slope of the hill. Every time I hit a rock it jerked my front wheel downhill. It was scary to me and I was really slow. I was frustrated because I knew I was holding them up. Finally they took off and Tristan and I walked our bikes down the hill to the road where we rode a mile uphill back to the truck. It was 11,000 ft. elevation and it really made us huff and puff! When we arrived at the truck Tristan happened to look down in the gravel of the parking lot and found some keys. They were Parker's car keys which had fallen out of his backpack. If we hadn't accidentally found them, he would have thought he had lost them somewhere going down the mountain on his bike and who knows how he would have driven his car back to school. I credit our prayers that morning. It was a fun time! My boys have grown up to be great men and I am proud of them.
