Prom Time

Well, this is Logan's last prom. Do I sound excited? This kid has gone to 5 proms in 3 years.

His date was Kelsey Sprouse. Isn't she pretty? I think so. They had so much fun. They went to the Landmark for dinner, and of course have to get a day activity in. They are heading on a charted bus to Magic Mtn in California this weekend. This year is winding down, and I think

my life with teenagers is about over. I am sad in ways, and happy in others. Just another turning of a chapter in life. Ahhhh, that sounds like I could be getting old??? No way, age is just a number, RIGHT?

The family weight loss challange...

So, the whole dang family is on weight loss. I cannot say the four letter word (DIET), or it is a jynx....As a family we have lost over 100 pounds, that is like losing a family member. We all decided we were a bunch of "fatties". Should have taken a before shot. Me (the main cheese) has lost over 20 pounds... I am just cutting the junk food, and riding my bike almost nightly. Trying to go farther than I did the night before. I love being in the fresh air, soaking up some thoughts, and being alone. Everybody is doing a good job. My throwing away syrofoam cups with soda's has ended. I swear every morning I was tossing 6 cups in the garbage. Wish us luck we are on a roll... I will try to post some pics soon. TaTa for today.

Family Gathering

This is Everett's Dad, wit the girls. In front, Gracie, & Shannon. In back Stacey, Kayla, & Sherry

So, here we are together again. Everett's (one and only,younger) sister Sherry, and her 4 kids came to visit from Colorado. They were on Spring Break, so they came to visit. It was so fun to be together. Her little boys are so precious. This time we gathered at Everett's younger brother Dale and his wife Michelle's house. They live close. Dale cooked us some fish that he caught in Mexico. Yum.

Mission Call?

Everyone is asking....Did Logan's call come? The answer is no...not yet. His call was delayed in SLC, due to him having to lose a few pounds. He was so optimistic, and worked so hard to shed those dang old pounds. But the pounds are gone, and his papers are back in SLC. So we are anxiously waiting again. This has been a test of patience, and endurance for all of us. It has been a guessing game as when they are coming in the mail. So maybe his call will come this week? or next week?

Family Easter Time

Easter was a wonderful day. Church in the morning, we had baby Garen for the day. Matt, Stacey, Gracie, and Gavin went on a picnic and egg hunt. In the afternoon we all gathered at our home for the dinner. A yummy honey baked ham, deviled eggs, baked beans, potato salad, rolls and corn. It was a great day for pictures, overcast. So I took advantage of it, and shot some great family pics. Everett's sister Sherry and her family came to visit from Colorado. It was so nice to see her and her growing family.
