Happy Birthday Stacey

Just a quick shout out, to my awesome daughter. Happy Birthday. I love you! I am glad you came to our family to brighten and cheer us with your radiant smile! Hope you have a great day.

So excited

I got tickets to Cavalia tonight. I have been wanting to see it for a long time. I am glad it came to Scottsdale. Hum, wonder why my grandkids love horses? I will report soon!

What is peace?

"Life often feels like a great pile of obligations, frustrations, and disappointments. But the Lord is there, always the same, His arms still outstretched. When we feel overwhelmed, we have to remember the peace He has spoken to us on previous occasions. His peace brings comfort and strength; the world cannot give that to us."
Kathleen H. Hughes

Tender Mercy

I got a call a few days ago, from this dear sweet lady, (Sister) Jean Shupe, who had just returned from the New Jersey Morristown mission a short 5 weeks ago. She was in Arizona to visit her daughter and family. She called me per Colten's request, and wanted to visit. I picked her up and we went to lunch. She was so full of details of what a great job our Elder is doing, and what a love he has for his savior. I am so glad that he doing what he is asked to do, and being the best he can be! I am so proud of him. Thanks for a great lunch, and I hope our friendship continues, Sis. Shupe you are definetly a jewel in my life.

A pony and a party

So we had Tristan's birthday party. A pony was a special suprise for a hour. What fun the kids had as Clyde rode them around and around. Tristan is horse crazy, he loves everything about horses. So it was only fitting to have a pony for his special day. Happy Birthday little "cowboy"!

Then there was a pinata, presents, and cake to make the day complete!

I can't believe he is 3

Where has time gone.... This little guy is 3 years old already. He brings so much love and laughter to my life. Happy Birthday Tristan!

My fortune cookie message

Today a friend and I had lunch at Pei Wei.... My fortune cookie message was

"When you have no choice, mobilize the spirit of courage"

Just what I needed to hear.

444 Tag

444 Tag



So I was tagged, to get a picture out of my 4th folder on my desktop, and the the 4th picture and tell about it. So here it is.

Here is Logan the night before we took him to the MTC in July of 2007. He is with his friends Scott Ball, Daniel Anderson and Max Crandall. They are all serving missions too, and will be home this summer.... YEA!

So everyone, play the game and do a 444 Tag, and see what you come up with!
