November came

A small snapshot of Halloween and the first half of November. There was lots of other life lived but these were good moments recorded photographically, with a few descriptions.
We visited Evelyn and all the grandparents on Halloween before trick or treating. Evelyn was happy to see the grandkids but didn’t want any other trick or treaters. 
Beth was up early one morning and took this picture of the sunrise for me. 
Halloween 2022- Daryl the UPS guy, Ruth the Light Furry dragon from How to Train Your Dragon 3, Beth-Jasmine, Lucy-mummy, she just pulled a costume out of the costume box.

Above is what Lucy looked like at the start of her orthodontic care. Below is the happy day the races came off and she almost completed that care!

Cool Gunner, he deals with a lot of shenanigans from the kids.
I came home from takingLucy to school one morning and found both little girls hovering over the heating vents warming up before school. Silly girls 

More loving on Tipper. Beth, Anna and Ellie

I can’t remember what was happening this morning with Evelyn but she was up for a picture and it was a really good morning. I think we had a good chat on her bed while she was getting up the ambition to go to the bathroom.
We borrowed Joe’s family’s gorilla costume before Halloween and have been having a lot of fun in it. Wearing it while in the passenger seat of the car is a favorite, to see people’s reactions and wave to them.

Hooray for being done with braces! Congrats to Lucy. I loved the selfie of you and Evelyn. The costumes were so much fun - especially the gorilla costume. Who wears it when you drive around???

Lucy is just beautiful! And I am so glad Evelyn has you to lovingly take care of her. We have a sister in our ward who died recently alone at home and wasn't found for days. It's heartbreaking. And a big YES to driving around with a gorilla in the passenger seat. You guys are so much fun!

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

 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

By
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!"
