Taking a little tour of my old ward building


Jeremy and I decided to take a little tour of our old ward house on Trojan Ave. Being Sunday afternoon we were hoping it was open because there is a gate around it now and it has been locked up when I was able to go by it in the past. To our luck it was open. This church has a lot of great memories for me and I think it has to be one of the most beautiful older churches built.

This grassy court yard was where us kids play Simon Says and red light green light the building attached is the primary (it was locked) classrooms and Relief Society room.

Monday morning before I go to the airport back to Utah

Monday morning I met up with my mom and Judy at this Cafe called the Living Room. Students come here to study, very quaint.

I had about an hour layover in Las Vegas so I decided to take a picture.

I had a great time spending time with my family members. I am so lucky.

Mt Nebo's Devil's Kitchen

Glenn and I decided to see if Mount Nebo was passable as the snows were melting from winter. It was late spring in May of this year it wasn't clear yet and this was as far as we got. It just so happened to be on the top of the mountain and we decided to take a walk up to Devils Kitchen about 1/4 mile from the parking area it's our own little Bryce Canyon.

Missionary Mom Cookie Exchange

Debbie Blair comes up with the idea of a cookie exchange. Make cookies meet somewhere exchange the cookies you made with other moms who show up with their cookies and mail them to your Missionary. Works for me and sounded fun. Well it was. We met at Kim Cundick's house her son is serving in Jacksonville Florida same as mine and about 10 or more showed up with yummy cookie dough (Thanks Wendy) for us to eat and fruit yogurt and some Blueberry Strudel cake Etc.. We made cards supplied and taught by Michelle Denson and ate, visited, and then divvied out cookies to mail to our Missionaries. I can say the Cameron loved them h said they were great. I even have more to send him. I had a great time. Thanks all.

Visiting

Hummingbird Feeder

I remember going to my Aunt and Uncles for 4th of July and hanging from the back porch awning was a hummingbird feeder and I loved watching them come to feed. Thinking I would get one for my house one day well I always wanted a Hummingbird Feeder but never bothered to get one. But for my Birthday my friend got me one not knowing that I always wanted one. It's beautiful and I love it and so do the Hummingbirds. I love to read under my tree and wait for them.
