Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody

I love the Muppets, and this song. Beaker is my favorite, followed by Animal. :-)

Yesterday was Lizzie's baptism day. It was a beautiful, sunny day and everything was perfect. Here's a few pictures from the day around the Ogden Temple and with her grandfather, Vern, who baptized her. Thank you Irene for such beautiful pictures.

Melly had her first day of preschool! She had a great time. A little hesitant getting on the bus. She was okay until she realized that it meant sitting in a seat with a harness, that was not okay. But the bus driver told me that once she let everyone know that she was unhappy about it, she was great. After she got home, she waived to the bus goodbye and was ready to unload her backpack and do her homework. It's been great ever since. She waves to get on, waves to get off and does her homework (reading) every day. Easiest school kid I've ever had. :-) I think mom was more worried than she was. Okay, I know I was much more worried about it. But I'm glad it went well.

So here are the official picture from the dance. They really are a cute couple, too bad they are just friends. But they say that you should marry or be with your friend......

My handsome 17 year old is going to Homecoming. He is chaperoning Sarah while her boyfriend (our neighbor Preston) is on his mission.






Had to have a few shots of his date and the group they are going with too. I feel so old......

So here are the Buddy Walk pictures. Enjoy!

I love this pic of Melanie and her cousins at the Buddy Walk. They just were trekking along the tables like a little blonde caravan. Having a great time.

Wow! The Buddy Walk went awesome!. I don't have my pictures on my computer yet (or to you Judy, I'll hurry) but as soon as I do I'll get them posted. We had almost 300 people register and more than that came. Thanks to Tausha, Judy, Suzie, Christine, and Cece for all your hard work. I never dreamed a few years ago that we would accomplish this and yet it came true. God bless you and everyone that came.

Well I've been getting my Facebook page up and running. And now I have 30 emails in my inbox! Not that I mind them. It's nice to talk to people I know. I just didn't expect to be connected to fast. By the way, Clay, I love Glee. Why did I have to add another show to my already huge list?

It's been a while since I've blogged. We've had tons of things going on and life has swamped me. Our son Alex came home from South Korea for a month with his kids, Heber' parents had their 50th wedding anniversary, my friend from Ohio came for a visit, and Heber was in the hospital for a short time. So everything goes up and down and up again. Who needs soap operas?! I have one of my own.



Here's a few pics from the last few months. Take care everyone and see you at the Buddy Walk!

The Boys are coming!!

This is what happens when you turn your back on kids and leave the cake out! These are our grandsons and, well lets just say, the apartment looked worse than they did and that is saying something!






Here's the better pics. The ones from Mother's Day when they were cleaned up. We're super excited for them to be coming home for a month. 11 days and couting!!!!!

Soapstone Vacation

Took another trip up to the mountains. This time to the Uintas to camp with grandma and grandpa. Had a blast hiking up to Ruth Lake and the Provo River Falls. Check out our pics!
