They Come in all Different Sizes

A pair for every set of feet

The feet that wear these shoes belong to the people that make our house a home. And for hours after they have gone, their laughs and giggles, tears and rough housing, prayers and songs can still be heard by those of us who remain within these walls.
What joy these walls have experienced.

Our Sweet Spot

This is our backyard.  Just a corner of it.  We call it our 'sweet spot'.
Many nights, this backyard is filled with grandkids giggles, squeels, bonfires for roasting mallows, chasing from monsters and lot's of 'tag, you're it'.  The following mornings, it will once again be our peaceful and beautiful 'sweet spot'.
The leaves are falling and each night's memories remain firmly in my mind.
Del and I are blessed - truly blessed to have this life Heavenly Father has granted us.
I thank Him each day.

It Can't Happen Soon Enough

Sleepover with the Grandkids

We took them to Chick -fi-lay first where they ate all the chicken nuggets and fries they could before playing for over an hour on the toys.

At Bliss Orthodontics

Work for some people, is just that...work.
But I have to admit, even though I have days that I'm ready to quit the job and be a stay home Nana, I really am blessed to have the job I do.  We do fun things in the office, Doctor takes us out to nice dinners, we celebrate Halloween with gusto, attend boring seminars and all get along for the most part.
This year will be our most financially successful year so far.  I have worked hard - I mean, really hard this year in our production and our collections.
I will be asking for a raise at the end of the year.

A BYU Memory Before Coming Home

I have to be honest... we chose the wedding date according to when there would be a football game in Provo.  And we all went -
And even though we lost the game, it was fun to be there as a family.
