In the early afternoon, we sent everyone on their way, and I met Greg at his work so that we could go golfing for our date. We went up to The Ledges golf course for 18 holes. We had the most marvelous time. The weather was heavenly, the course was nearly empty, the sun set over Snow Canyon, and we just enjoyed being together so much! It was such a calm, peaceful afternoon. I loved it.

After golf, we stayed and ate at The Fish Rock Grille, which is the restaurant in the clubhouse. It overlooks the course and the water. Of course I had to ask if we could sit out on the patio! The waitress let us sit out there even though we were the only ones, but after about a half hour, I was begging to go back inside. Once the sun really set and the breeze picked up, it was pretty chilly in my shorts and short-sleeved shirt!
Greg and I had a delicious dinner. It was so quiet and we enjoyed the time to talk and dream together. When we got home, we were so proud of the kids. The whole house was clean and they were in their pajamas, ready for bed. Greg and I are enjoying a wonderful time in our lives. We are busier than I ever thought possible! But we are so happy right where we are. The children bring us such immense joy. And we are finding a freedom together that we have almost never had.
There was one hole on the course that had the most secluded, picturesque view of the canyon. As I sat in the cart up on the path and watched Greg step up to his ball, with the majestic view in the background, my heart sang with all the joy and wonder it could possibly muster. My goodness, I thought, this is the most breathtaking moment. I never want to forget what a joy it is to be alive.
I'm so glad that I live in this beautiful world. Yes, I know Heavenly Father loves me.
