Training Week for mom

Well, It has been a great week at work with Training's all week! which is a nice break sometimes from the running around of visits. But I really miss the families I work with as well. Things around home are becoming a little more routine that is always good. We had Nick Morrill and his friends here to visit on Sunday night and that was fun,They were on their way back to Provo from California and stopped to spend the night and do some hiking or long boarding or whatever.... It was sure fun to have them. This week-end was busy with Womens conference for Kim and I and doing long needed shopping. Then Burke and Teresa were here just overnight to attend Danielle Browns missionary farewell. But it was good to see them. Graham and Kate were out to dinner and we had fun looking at wedding pictures and planning their trip. Kate helped Burke and Teresa to set up a blog so we can all keep in touch. So we look forward to that. Here is one of the wedding pictures.. Oh yeah Mary is back East visiting family and We hear she has been shopping at H&M and making the rest of us jealous. Have fun Mary and take good care of Sophie. Love to all Cleola

Life is going on....

to up date my last blog... Kim is here living with us now and is substitute teaching and trying to keep up with us Bess's . Ben is much better behaved when she is around ha ha we sure love having them here. I have been in Ogden to an Autism conference, It was fantastic! I was able to see Sophie and tend her for a short few minutes. It was so cute I have nick named her my Pilate's baby she tries to get up from laying down my lifting her head like she is going to do a sit up but she does not get up, we had lots of fun playing peek a boo, and laughed alot. It was not to fun to be away from my good husband on Valentines day the first time in 29 years, but it helped getting to see Sophie. But now I am home and we have had a great week-end and yeah!! no work tomorrow, maybe we will go to the home show... maybe Vegas.... maybe just hang out... who knows?

Starting to Blog

Well Today is the first day of the rest of my life; so why not start blogging right? Kate set me up and told me to:Get Blogging!!! so here goes..... Wait interruption..... OK, I am back, Yeah that is my life, one interruption after another, ha ha but life goes on and we just work around the interruptions. Actually, I would not know how to live a life with out stops and starts.
Our family this year started with a sigh of relief, and a great big smile! The wedding was over and it went beautifully, Handsome couple with lots of well wishers sent them off on thier honeymoon and then back to Provo to go to school. Then we were greated with the great news that we are going to be Grandparents again.. Ben and Kim due the same day Sophie was born last year!!My cup is running over with pride( no maybe I should say happiness!) I do not want to be pridefull I know others think....... they have cute grand kids but, I know mine is the cutest ever!!!
Jan 3 we celebrated Birthday and then K.C. and Mary and Sophie headed back up to cold country, how dare they take my granddaughter away???? We are learning to watch the web site daily and trying to become more technology literate so we can go in and see the pictures of her and the videos they post. The latest one is showing her up on her knee's starting to crawl//// can you believe what a smart grand baby I have??? Yeah I know I can't believe it either. Well after that we sent Kim back to Phoenix for one more month while Ben moved in with us and started his new job in St.George. ( Yeah I am excited that they will be living here when the baby is born)
Zachary is back in school and Alex after spending a semester at U.V.S.C is back living at home and attending Dixie College, Graham and Kate are still working away, Graham changed jobs and is still considering going to school again and moving away?? But things are still in limbo for them at the moment and that is OK by me. I love having them close enough to at least have Sunday dinner together, and call and get advice from??? wait aren't the kids supposed to be the ones calling for advice? Oh well Kate is a great listener, so she gets a ear full once in a while. Thanks Kate.





The married couples are planning a trip together in April and I get to tend Sophie so I am excited.
