Nothing's quite so great as being a grandmother to "practically perfect" Grandchildren!

Happy Birthday Mother

Today would have been my Mother's 80th Birthday! She's been gone 20 years. The time has flown by and my,... have we ever missed her in so many ways! We often feel her presence though, most especially in Thunder and Lightening. Thanks for all you taught me Mother, you did the Very Best you knew how to do in everything. And history will show that it was pretty amazing too all you were able to accomplish feeling the way you did! We love and miss you, Happy Birthday and Have another peice of white coconut cake wherever you are!

Feeling Fine

When you get to 50 a lot more reference is given to health in coversations. Then at 55 it seems to take another leap in references made. Most of those get more personal and I'm tired of that. I making a goal to give the reply, "fine" when asked no matter what the Truth is. This will open up new vista's for me and will keep me much quieter generally.

Clueless in South Jordan

I just keep hitting keys on this thing and teaching myself how to use it. One of these days Pete and his wife will show me how and then I'll have pictures too.
Forgive the "typo's", I'm lucky to just have a computer available now.!@?!

The Holidays are behind us now...??

Well 'tis a small thing that I do to be a Sister-in-Zion to all of my family, but that small thing started about when Pete and Bekah moved in in August and ended when Mark left for school in Hawaii, Jan. 1st. It was a long run and a good time. Sometimes funner than others, "the poor in-law children" had to put up with my lack of structure, but random rules like not walking around eating, and then letting 160+ people eat all through the house and not ask them to "please wash after eating" caused some questions. We had some 1-nighters, and some almost-strangers, and even Grandpa Leonard stayed over for the 1st time in this house! It was a great holiday that seemed to go on forever and if anyone will help undecorate in January we really will stop celebrating! Until then come by, everyone is welcome to whatever we have, and it's always a party! Right now were serving soup, bread and cookies, sorry the turkey and prime-rib went fast.Please Hurry, can't wait to see you too!! Oh happy new year!

I Feel Funky

Hip hip hooray... It's almost my birthday and I feel funky, I don't want to go anywhere or see anyone. It doesn't sound like me, so I think It's an illness called giteenoldur.
