Just some catching up.........

I was searching on my computer for a different picture to use for wallpaper and I ran across some pictures from mom and dad's open house in July. I'm pretty sure I didn't post any of them (shame on me). Well I found a picture that just really makes me smile.....cousin Steven Nielsen and mom....Love it!!


I was so glad he and Lani (and her girls) and Buzz and Kim came. It was soon after their dad (my uncle, mom's brother) Glen passed away and it was good to get together for a little happier occasion. Now if we could just get better about getting together!!

Here are some more pix from the 'party'.

Bertha Daniels from the 'old' neighborhood.

Pink (dad's brother) and Barbara Evans

Kenny and Barbara Erickson


Dad's cousin Reid Williamson and his wife Norma.

I think in all it turned out better than we imagined it would; a HUGE THANKS to Craig, Terry, Tracy and Ann for all their help.

The food was great and we had plenty to share when it was over.

Aunt Marelyn with Colton in a rare good mood.



Colton just singing away..........


And the Bailey family from their old ward came and sang a song for us as well............
Tracy and Carson when they first got there......him being shy for the first little while.
Jill, Jeff and Marci Evans
Carson Jones and Amy Evans


These funky neon daisies were fun.
Okay, so I'm slow...........BUT it was worth waiting for right?

October 2009

Went to the cabin for conference weekend. Planted some flowers and watched lots of things taped off TV. Great relaxing 4 days!!!

Took these pictures for mom and dad of the new sheet rock in the basement.

This isn't pretty but I have to get back to work, so I'll try to figure out how to move things to make them better later.
