Heather

I married in to a great family. Not only do I have good in-laws but the extended family of in-laws is great too. So today is Glen's cousin's, Heather's birthday! She is great! I have been thinking about her and wishing her good things today. 
As I have been thinking about her. This picture popped in to my head. I snapped it with my phone last year when I was at Women's Conference with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law. Heather happened to be there too. She had come to town to visit her in-laws, go to the conference with any of them that would and celebrate her mother-in-law's birthday, if I remember right.

 The really cool part was that we didn't really know if she was going to be there or not but had the idea that she would be. It was when my sister-in-law was going through a really ruff time and needed all the love and encouragement she could get. As it happened we miraculously saw her and she took time away from the family she was with to visit with her other side of the family. It was wonderful. She got both Janae and Janene to smile at a time when they weren't smiling to much about life.  She just reminds me of good and who doesn't love a person like that?

California here we come

July 15-19  Early Monday morning we went to the Provo airport to head to John Wayne airport then down to San Diego to celebrate Larry and Janene's 50th wedding anniversary. We met up with everyone but Josh and his girlfriend, Amberlee in Provo. They left earlier and drove so they could visit her family as well. My dad is a bit John Wayne fan so we had to take a picture with The Duke at his airport for him.  Once we had our luggage, rental van and food in our bellies we had to get sand between our toes and salt water at least on our feet. We ate at a fun little place in San Clemente called Cafe Rae. It was really little. Our group of nine took up about half their seats. It was really good food and they had great hospitality.  Our next stop was the USS Midway in San Diego. Larry had talked about visiting this and the Saint Mary for a long time. It was one of the main reasons we went to San Diego. It was nice to make it happen. I am not really in to military stuff but it was...

My cup with blessings overflows

 I am trying to get back in the habit of blogging. Before I go to bed, even though I should be in bed here are blessings from this week. I don’t know it I will remember them all there were so many.  Being home to attend church with our ward.  Talks from two sister in our ward, Louisa Jones who is a brand new young woman and Holly Draney who is the Primary President, on Sister Kristin Yee’s conference talk, that complimented each other well.  They reminded me that God is in the details and even when mistakes are made he can use it to help us learn and bless us. Louisa talked about how she was mad when her parents decided they should move a few years ago but Heavely Father has made it work out. Holly brought up the definitions of the words possibility and joy. She also talked about repairing quilts that had things happen to them. Also a talk from Matt Reeves about the power of the priesthood and how it has blessed his life and has preserved his life.  A great less...

Conversations with Lucy

Lucy-" Mom, Do you know what you can't do?" Mom-"No, what?" Lucy-" You can't put root beer in the microwave. You can't put it in the microwave or else it will explode." Mom- " Is that right?" Lucy- " Yeah, and do you know what else you can't do, you can't put candy in the microwave or else it will explode too. Yeah!"
