In Memory of Grandma

My Grandma Clove passed away last night. I have lost both my grandma's now and it's tearing me apart. Being the oldest grandchild, I was very close to my grandparents and Aunts and Uncles. (Not to many cousins my age.) I'm so greatful that me and my sister Debbie went down to St. George this past weekend to see Grandma in the hospital. What a blessing it was to talk with her and tell how much we love her. I miss you and love you Grandma.

We remodeled the boys bathroom.


We recently remodeled the boys bathroom and we think it turned out pretty good. It was Garry's first time to lay tile and he did a great job.


With this bathroom looking so nice now, our boys better start aiming better.

(It was hard to get a good picture of such a small bathroom.)

Our weekend get away

A few weeks ago Gar and I went to San Diego for the weekend. It's been a long time since we've had some alone time together and it was so much fun.



We stayed our first night at the Hotel Del Coronado. We loved it there!



This is the view from our balcony. Awesome!


On Saturday we spent the day taking the Old Town Trolley and we were able to get on and off the trolley all day at all of San Diego's most popular attractions.



Saturday night we attended a session at the San Diego Temple. I have to say this is the coolest temple I've ever been in and we were asked to be the witness couple for our first time. This was a pretty great way to end our day.

The temple workers were so friendly there. They invited us to dinner on Sunday. Unfortuately, we had to fly home Sunday afternoon. Gar and I thought that was pretty funny, but nice.

Kids can be so dramatic.

Yesterday I announced to my children that Monday's were going to be No TV and No Video Game Days. You would think I announced the end of the world. There was crying, and begging, and nashing of teeth.

When they said, "What are we suppose to do" I knew I had waited to long in doing this.

After about an hour, everyone had calmed down and we had a very nice evening. The boys realized there were plenty of things to do and they enjoyed their day.

I loved it! Don't tell my kids, but I may add another day.

Draper Temple Open House


We just went through the Draper Temple and like all the temples it was very beautiful. We're looking forward to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house. Well, I guess I should say Ben is looking forward to more cookies. That was his favorite part.

Seems like just yesterday


the social worker said, "Meet your new son." Time sure does go by fast.
This is Matt's first time shaving. Not one cut. Good job Matt!

Now what do I do?

I just finished the last Twilight book and I'm sitting here stunned that it's over.

Now you know why it took me so long to post my Israel pic's. :0)
