 Lilly- senior- highlight- it’s good to see her friends again 


Lucy-freshman- highlight- We didn’t die. Varsity football won. Her team went 1-1in games barley losing in the fifth set.The morning was rough and didn’t go as she was hoping. She did the best she could, put on a happy face and things for better.


Daryl- 5th grade -highlight- His teacher is really nice and she doesn’t really believe in homework, only at home reading. 


Ruth- 3rd grade-highlight-just going to school. 




Beth- kindergarten…almost. It starts Wednesday. She’s excited. Mom’s interested in how she will get along with her teacher. It’s the same teacher Ruth and Daryl had. It will be fine, right? 

Glen started his sixth year as an administrator. Highlight-In the first week he had a surprise meeting with the district superintendent about the AV system that was put in the school. (That company is trying to sell the system to the district for other schools.They were smart and gifted the system to Glen’s school.) 

Kayci -enjoying three more weeks of having no school. -not so much highlight- meeting Mr.McGuckus (Daryl named it) the mouse that comes in and out of the food bin for the goats. I don’t like mice. … I accidentally squished it later in the week when I opened the bin and haven’t seen it since. I think that is a sorry not sorry thing. I don’t think I could have done that if I was trying.

I just like your kids so much! Ruth's answers to the getting to know you questionnaire made me want to hang out with her. I'm so glad you'll have a few days to yourself before you start school again. This is a big transition for your family having EVERYONE in school--and at home. It will fly!

Your mouse moment is the one I sympathise with totally. I also love the picture of Daryl and his little sister.

Love the school highlights. You have a senior!! I feel like we are so close to many of the same things going on. I am just starting my 5th year teaching - Glen is just ahead of me in admin. And then your oldest two are just a year ahead of my youngest two. Fun things! Sorry about the mouse. I loved how you explained your feelings about it :)

California here we come

By
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

By
 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!"
