Australian Grandkids visit-the first 2 days

Well, Nick, Jasmine, Isis and Phoenix arrived Friday. Phoenix became sick immediately and we rented a cough assist machine. The other grandkids who were not full of germs came and played! Fun two days! ( Phoenix has recovered and both kids are a great joy with their very special loving spirits!) I'm a very happy and blessed grandma!

Baby Blessing Invitation

Family and Friends,

You are invited to attend a baby blessing for our Granddaughter, Phoenix, from Australia. She is 2 years old and has been waiting until she could have her Grandpa could do it.

It will be Saturday May 3, at 11:30 am. Location is Logan 7th Ward 565 East 100 South. Please enter from the back of the building.

It will also be a birthday celebration and a pot luck luncheon.

We would like to especially invite all those who have donated money to her family to purchase needed medical equipment and friends who haven't seen Nick in a long time. This is their first trip to the USA in four years!

Easter with family & friends

We spent Easter day at church and then at Max's where we enjoyed a great meal and had fun watching the kids find Easter eggs. The littlest got to go first then we advanced to the oldest, that is why we are all standing on the porch. Watching or waiting for a turn.

Rick's Birthday

For Rick's birthday on March 1, 2008 we had the kids and grand kids over to play pictionary and eat strawberry short cake. I hadn't replace my camera yet so no pictures were taken. Max and Brigitte gave him a day skiing, so later in the month we all went skiing. I had my new camera but when I downloaded the photos they we in too good of a resolution for my computer to handle and I lost them. Brigitte gave me a disc with these photos and now you can see Rick and me, Max, Brigitte, Mason and Natalie and the fun we had!
