Visit to Isaacs family

We went to visit Isaac and his family in Moscow Idaho.

The saddest part was that we forgot to take our camera .

So we didn't get good pictures just using our phone.

We had a really good time.

The children were darling and are growing up so fast.

Thanks Isaac and Jennylyn for letting us come and spend the weekend.

Grandkids are fun!

Leisa came and spent the weekend.

Cole is sure growing up.

We all went to Xanders birthday party.

I can't believe he is four all ready.

Heidi made delicious Cafe Rio Burritos for us.

Chelsea came and visited a couple of weeks ago.
Serena is sure growing.

All the grandkids love their Grandpa

Doris Egbert Noyes 85th Birthday Party

For my moms birthday - she has been gone for 7 years now -MY Dad invited everyone here to have a prime rib dinner. Dad had it catered. Most of my siblings and their spouses were able to come. Thank you to those who made the sacrifice to be here. It meant a lot to Dad that you would come. Thanks to Crystal and Janell for being the waitresses

As I thought about my mom I was trying to think of a few simple words to describe her.

This is what came to my mind.

Mosiah 5: 15

Therefore, I would that ye should be steadfast and immovable always abounding in good works....that Christ, may seal you his......

she certainly was steadfast and immovable always abounding in good works.

Saint George Get Away

I went with Steve on his Southern Utah run on the 8-12 of September

We went to the Tuachan theatre and saw ANNIE

it was wonderful. (The little girl dog is the photographers daughter).

We drove thru Cedar Breaks. It was breath taking
and then went up Kolob Canyon

It was fun to go away with Steve for a few days.

Serena Dawn Smith - Blessing

Serena was blessed in the 6th of September - labor day weekend

Westin gave her a beautiful blessing.

She was blessed wearing her Mothers Blessing dress.

Which my dear friend Jenny Bywater had given her.

Preisthood Blessing are wonderful.

What a power it will be in Serena's life.

We had a great party after here in Milton for the Hardmans and the Smiths

Thanks everybody for coming

"For the Beauty of the Earth"

Steven and I went for a ride up Mirror Lake Hwy on Saturday.

It was beautiful.

We walked all the way around Mirror Lake.

If you haven't been before there is a nice smooth improved path around.

On the way we played at the Provo River Falls

But then of course we can always enjoy the beauty right in our own back yard.

Grandma's play time

Heidi went to girls camp and Jared had an interview so we went

and got Xander and he got to play with Jaqueline and Alexandra

and he slept over night with them.

We made a tent out of the quilt frames. Just like my children use to do.

They thought it was great fun to dog pile on Grandma.

They were all sad when they had to go home.

They had so much fun playing together.
