Happy Mother's Day

Savannah did a little digging in my garden spot while we were cleaning up from our Mother's Day dinner. She was even washing her face with dirt!!

She doesn't look too happy, but she really was having a great time. The other kids were much more cautious about covering themselves in dirt. She didn't want to quit, until she realized that she could have a bath . . . also one of her favorite things!

Good thing I haven't planted my garden yet!
Happy Mother's Day to all you moms, grandmothers, daughters, aunts and wonderful women in my life! Someday this little one will grow up to be a mom and laugh at her own daugher's messes.

A Dream Come True, sort of....

Congrats Stephanie and Shane!!!

For many years, I've had a dream of singing in the Tabernacle Choir. Well, I got to sing in the Choir seats!! Greg and I sang with the Draper Temple Devotional Choir for a special Sunday night meeting for temple workers and their spouses or family members. I really am sitting in this photo, I think 4th row up from the bottom.. It was a wonderful experience to practice with this choir and sit in this historic tabernacle.

We went to St. George to attend my neice's wedding with my parents. It was a great morning to be with our family. Being there brought back sweet memories of our wedding there nearly 33 years ago.

It was fun to be there with Stephanie and Shane and the Brinkerhoff family.

California

Hey everyone!

It's been a year since I've posted anything, almost. Not that nothing has happened -- I just am so lame at doing this blogging thing.

So, Lori, me and her two little girls drove to California last weekend kind of on the spur of the moment to see Natalie. It was so fun! I successfully drove the whole way, with Lori to keep me awake and on the right road. She had the hard job of keeping Brooklyn and Savannah happy with treats and movies and whatever it took for many hours in the car. But, we made it!!

We went to the beach, briefly, and to downtown LA and to the beautiful, historic, Mission Inn in Riverside. Mostly, we just hung out with Natalie. It was so nice to have a short break from winter and be warm again!!
