I am glad it is this week

I am very glad to have last week over with and I am sure those of you that are in school will have the same feeling when this week is over. It was a very busy week for me and with having Stake Leadership, Speaking in Stake Conference, and our Gold and Green Ball, I felt a little overwhelmed. After speaking at Stake Conference it was a great feeling of relief, Ryan said I did great but it is such a stress to speak in front of so many people. So needless to say I am glad that his week is here, now I can look forward to Mac coming home and seeing all of my family together. How great will that be!!!! So I am looking forward to seeing all of you!

We're ready!!

2 more weeks, well more like 2 1/2 until we see you guys, but 2 weeks until we are in Utah. We went and got swimsuits today so we could go swimmin' in the hot tub! We can't wait!!

That was Jaedon. Interpretation: I am such a big boy, and can't wait to see grandma and grandpa, and all my cousins... Something like that.

some more pics from the Treehouse Museum

I am still in awe at how great the Treehouse Museum was. For those who haven't been there it is right across the street from the temple on 22 street in Ogden. Anyway, it was very fun and maybe we should all go there when everyone is here to visit. So here are some more pics...........

We have been married 33 years!

Today Ryan and I have been married for 33 years, that seems like forever but it just seems like yesterday that we went to the Ogden temple to be sealed for time and all eternity. I have been very blessed to have such a great spouse and we still have a lot of fun together. I can't beleive that the time has passed so quickly. We have been blessed with 6 beautiful children and now we have 4 of their spouses to add to our family and from that we have 7 grandsons and one grand daughter. Like the song our family just goes on and on. We are so thankful for all of you and for the happiness and joy you have brought to our lives! We are looking forward to another 33 years.

Today is our anniversary!

HAPPY BIRDAY TO YOU!!

I think he could have kept going and going and going...and I just had to throw Livy in! :)

Happy Birthday Mom, Grandma, and friend. We sure do love you and hope you have a wonderful day!!!!

A week of Boys

Yesterday was Layne's and Carson's first baseball games of the season. They did great and had fun. Bryce and Evan just played in the dirt for 4 hours. You can tell from Evan's picture that he even has dirt in his teeth. Bryce's favorite part was the snowcone. He ate the entire thing by himself. The other pictures are of their miscellaneous antics throughout the week. We love you.

A week of boys

"SWEETEST" grandkids!! (Get it?)

We love you, and can't wait to see you soon!

General Conference

I thought General Conference was great and I enjoyed all of the speakers and being able to participate in the solemn assembly. The weather wasn't really great but because of the weather you just wanted to sit inside and watch it, so I guess that was a good thing. Caitlin brought up two boys from Scotland that are visiting here and they were going to attend 2 sessions of conference. It was really fun to hear their accents and to talk with them about Scotland. The oldest one is putting his papers in to go on a mission when he returns. It made me realize how small the world is and that the church is the same all over the world, I also realized that if so many members travel such far distances to come to conference that maybe we should appreciate more what we have so close to us. We went down to Liberty to watch conference with Grandpa and Grandma Shaw and yes they are the winners! They have so much more snow, I think it will still be here in May!!!
