Happy 99th Birthday to a Great Great Grandma!!!

I cant believe that my great grandma is 99 today! She has been such a special person in my life. I grew up right next store to her, and not only was she my grandma but a special friend too. I hold so many memories with her and of her. I will always remember going to her home after school to have a snack and look at pictures. Grandma taught me how to be polite and helpful around the home. She is such a sweetheart. I hope that she will make it to 100 years!

A special person on my mind


When I first heard the new about President Hinkley I was sure that it was a roomer. But after looking at a few of utahs new channels I found it to be true. Sherelle and I were talking this morning about what a neat man he was. Not only was he our phrophet, but he felt like a friend even though we did not personally know him. It was so easy to trust him, because of the spirit he brought to the room when he spoke. He had a special way about him that he conveyed to the whole world. He never acted too intelligent or to molly too those he spoke to. He had a special way of answering religious questions to those of other faiths. I believe that he did truly love us all. I dont think this is a time to morn, he lived a great life, and he is now with his wife. He has been a great example of the truth to me.

They play all kinds of instruments, but our favorite being the fiddle. Their music just makes you wanna get up and dance. Thanks Sherelle, Grace, Mom, and Shelby for a fun night!

It is so fun watching Addilyn grow! She resently has become a busy bee always wanting to play and eat with everything she can get her hands on. She will sit in her exersaucer until she falls asleep, or chew on duck duck until he is soaking wet. It is so fun to see her develope and get interested in toys. We love her so much!

We did so many things including visiting, rock climbing, laser tag, shopping, eating, snowboarding, going to the farm, hunting, going to church, and seeing exteneded family. We cant wait to go back there again soon. Here is some photos of our trip! Cousins or twins???
