Sundays Now Look Like This...

Our ward split again last Sunday. This is the second time in 15 months. Crazy, right? We love our neighborhood!

Chuck was called as the Exec. Secretary and is working with a GREAT bishopric. He was gone from 9-4 today for meetings and church, and he went back to the church at 8 tonight. Yeah- he's pretty cool.

I'm now the 2nd counselor in Primary. Apparently I am meant to be with the kiddos...

Kinsley is sick with the croop. It's her first ever sickness. The other morning Austin went and told his parents that, "Kinzley is breathing like Darth Vader!"

BIG MILE STONE A COM'IN

I remember January 14, 1956 as the day I met "the love of my life!"
Grant remembers that date because it was when he purchased his first car!
And we are still together -- amazing!

If a pictures is worth a thousand words then I am talking too much, even stuttering in one place.

Check out todays date 1-1-11 !

The next same type of date will be 2-2-22 which will be Ron's 59th birthday.

Sad news. Steve is moving out! Oh, No! How could this be?
Moving out on Monday (maybe even Sunday night).
I'm sad. We have enjoyed him living here.

I'll have Cheese Cake for dessert on Sunday, the kind that Steve likes (with the terrible Graham Cracker crust). And some with the good crust for the rest of us.

We don't get out of church until 4:00 pm so we'll have the blessing with the first arrivals. Come whenever you can. We'll serve up until midnight.

New Year's: Look Not Behind Thee

Sunday Dinner 1-2-2011

Menu: Ham & Bean Soup
Rolls, etc.

Definitely influenced by Lisa on this choice. When she lived in California and was coming for a visit she would sometimes request this recipe. I think it was the only one she ever requested.
Yum for a cold winter day.

Christmas Eve 2010

Angel wanted to help Mary with baby.

Then angel took a break to hug grandma Hill.


Then she was back.



Smelling Frankencense.
And gold.

GREATLY BLESSED

I appreciate each one of you! It is a great blessing that our family all get along so well and love each other. Our get-togethers are the joys of our lives.
