She is grinning at me, the door is still locked!
See the locked door. Mom wouldn't get out of the car on the pull-out, where I stopped to take pictures.

Spent a beautiful day in Logan with Sam and Elaine, Mom, Matt and Lorelyn, Sam, Kristen and the boys and Abby and Marshall. ( poor Mark had to work). We met at the cemetary to visit Dad, still no headstone. That was very sad to see, it has been a year since he passed away, should be done by now. We went to the favorite Bluebird cafe.....not so favorite anymore....food not so good and the candy looks like it has been there since Grandma Jayne was a little girl. Looked for books at the used book store down the street. Went to Matts' so Grammie could rest for a while and then we went to see the movie 17 Miracles, about the Martin and Willie handcart companies. It was good, I'm sure it will be at Deseret Book soon. Good for a pioneer lesson for FHE. Then on the way out of town we stopped and bought berries for to make a pie when we got home. It was a perfectly lovely day, missiing and honoring Dad.

Willy called me from Australia to tell me some very sad news. My dear sweet friend John R. Andes passed away, almost a year to the day of my dear Fathers passing. My prayers are with the Andes Family, (you too Cissy) and the love goes without saying.
Blessings and comfort to you. Sammy and Paul Love you so much.

We just got back from a Court of Honor. The primary room was busting at the seams, full of parents and sibs of the scouts that were getting awards. I am so proud of Marshall, he got 7 merit badges and two awards from the camp they went to. The most awesome being the Duty to God award. It is a badge of George Washington kneeling in prayer in Valley Forge. He also got two rank advancements. Awesome. Love my boy.

Hi everyone, we are getting ready for Gramma Lyn. We are so excited to get to spend time with her. She has 2 of the cutest friends that served with them in Africa, that live in an assisted living center on 106th so. We will be doing things with them. We will go see Aunt Marrieta before it starts snowing between here and there. We are looking forward to the next 11 months. Life is good and at the end of the day...all we have is each other and our Faith in Christ. LOve ya'll.

I'm sorry that I'm such blog slacker...facebook takes more time than it should, it is a good thing I don't have twitter, I'd never get anything done. Sam and Kristen are here looking for a house in Tooele. I will put up pcis of the boys as soon as Mark gets them off the camera. There some pics from our trip to Montana.
