It' s been awhile

I decided I needed to post something since it has been awhile. Last week-end John and I went down to Heather and Koby's just overnight. We got up on Monday and headed over to Bear Lake where we attended his Aunt Maxines funeral. It was nice and he got to see a lot of cousins that he hasn't seen in a very long time. He only has 1 aunt and 2 uncles left on that side of the family so it was nice to see them too. The rest of the week I have babysat and worked. Today I am getting ready to go to Tiffany's little open house that she is having for all the aunts, uncles, and cousins to come and see all the changes that they have made to Grandmas house. They are awesome and you wouldn't even know the place. It is totally amazing how different it all looks. Grandma and Grandpa would be so pleased. Everyone have a great week and keep praying for Spring. I know it is out there somewhere.

Spring is Coming

I just thought I would let you all know that I think spring is just around the corner. The birds have been singing and the snow is melting at my house. You can see a lot of grass which is okay, but I don't know if I am ready for it or not. I love springtime but, I dislike all the work that it brings. I think I am getting lazier as I get older. Of course, I don't get around as good as I used to either. I just about talked myself out of growing a garden but then the leaders tell us to and to store food. So, I probably will grow a garden. I have been trying to use up s lot of my canning so I can do new stuff. I try to at least open 1 bottle a day. Somedays I do better and open up 2 or 3. Anyway, its always nice to use up the old and get some new in the bottles. I hope everyone is feeling better now and that you are all ready for Spring. It's coming whether we are ready or not! Here's to sunshine and green grass!!!

Butterfly Fly Away

Saturday night, John and I and some others from the family went to the Upper Valley Idol program. We had a famous singer that we knew and she was performing. It was our sweet little Malorie. She did so good. She sang Butterfly Fly Away and it was super. Her Grandpa said she was the only one that was actually on key. It was a cute bunch of kids that tried out and Malorie got third. She was just beaming and so was the rest of us. We are very proud of you Malorie and hope you keep singing with that sweet little voice. Love ya!
