WE HAVE BEEN CRAZY BUSY THIS WEEK, WE GOT CHEVY EAGLE PROJECT APPROVED SO NOW IT IS ON TO HIS BIG INTERVIEW!! WE ARE GETTING CLOSER, I HAVE BEEN FINISHING BABY SHOWER PRESENTS AND HAVING LOTS OF FUN SHOPPING AGAIN!! CHEROKEE HAS A HUGE PROJECTS DUE THIS WEEK AND HAS BEEN A LITTLE STRESSED, SHE HAS BEEN SO HELPFUL TO ME WITH CASH, I WILL MISS HER WHEN SHE GOES TO SCHOOL. CASH IS ON HYPER DRIVE, I THINK IT IS THE NICE WEATHER, BUT HE DOESN'T QUIT, UNTIL I PRETTY MUCH SIT ON HIM TO GO TO SLEEP!! MY POOCHIE KEEPS ME BALANCED, I LOVE SITTING DOWN AT NIGHT TO WATCH THE NEWS AND HAVING HIM HOP UP ON MY LAP FOR A CUDDLE, I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD LIKE A INDOOR DOG, BUT HE HAS BEEN A BLESSING TO MY HEART. MARTY HAS BEEN BUSY AT WORK, I REALLY MISS HIM WHEN HE IS GONE. HE HAS BECOME ATTATCHED TO ME, SO WHEN HE LEAVES I HAVE WITHDRAWLS. ANYWAY WE ARE GETTING EXCITED FOR THE BABY TO COME AND I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO SPENDING TIME WITH CONTESSA AND FAMILY. SHE IS DOWN TO ABOUT THREE WEEKS-YA HOO!! LOVE TO ALL MY FAMILY, C

CAN'T WAIT FOR THE REUNION-IT HAS BEEN TO LONG SINCE OUR LAST GET TOGETHER IN JANUARY!! HAVE A HAPPY WEEK!

SIN CITY

JUST A LITTLE SIDE NOTE-BECAUSE SOME MIGHT BE OFFENDED-THE WHOLE "SIN STATE UTAH," THING IS A PERSONAL JOKE WITH MY SIBLINGS, SO DON'T EVERYONE GET UPSET, WE JUST HAVE TO JOKE ABOUT IT!!! ALL HAS TO DO WITH MARTY MOVING TO THE PROMISED LAND!!! SO IF ARE OFFENDED SORRY, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYONE PERSONALLY, EXCEPT MARTY-AND HE KNOWS IT'S A JOKE!! HAPPY DAY TO MY FAMILY, LOVE, C

EASTER

AFTER A WONDERFUL TRIP AND 12 DAYS WITH MY HUBBY, IT WAS KINDA SAD TO SEND HIM BACK TO THE "SIN STATE," WE ALWAYS HAVE SO MUCH FUN TOGETHER AND IT IS A LITTLE BIT OF A LET DOWN WHEN HE HAS TO GO BACK, BUT THE HYUNDAI STORE WOULD FALTER WITHOUT MY AWESOME HUSBAND, THAT IS WHY HE WENT BACK!! ANYWAYS, CONTESSA AND LORIN SPENT SAT. THRU TUES. WITH US AND THAT WAS FUN, WE TOOK TESS TO GET HER HAIR COLORED AND CUT, WHICH TURNED OUT DARLING!! WE ALSO FOUND A BLESSING DRESS FOR KENNEDY, IT LOOKS LIKE A CINDERELLA DRESS!! I STUFFED LORIN WITH FOOD AND HIM AND CHEVY BONDED WITH VIDEO GAMES, CHEROKEE HAD TO PACK FOR HER TRIP AND DO LAUNDRY. WE HAD A GREAT TIME TOGETHER AND I ALWAYS HATE TO SEE THOSE TIMES END, BUT I LOOK FORWARD TO ALL THE OTHER TIMES WE WILL HAVE TOGETHER THIS SUMMER!! CHEROKEE DID REALLY GOOD AT STATE, SHE HAS WORKED HARD AND WE ARE SO PROUD OF HER, SHE IS GEARING UP FOR GRADUATION AND COLLEGE, SHE JUST WANTS TO MOVE ON IN LIFE. SHE IS SUCH A GO GETTER!! CASH THINKS WE ARE GOING BACK TO PETER PAN EVERYDAY!! CHEVY FINALLY GOT HIS PAPERWORK DONE FOR HIS EAGLE SO THAT WILL HAPPEN SOON. MARTY IS BACK AT WORK AND KEEPS US ALL TOGETHER, I AM BUSY MAKING QUILTS AND SCRAPING. LIFE IS GOOD AND WE ARE SO THANKFUL FOR ALL THAT WE HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH, I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR THE GOSPEL AND THE PEACE IT BRINGS INTO MY LIFE, EVEN THOUGH I AM NOT PERFECT. I AM GRATEFUL FOR MY SWEETIE, MY KIDS, SON-IN-LAW AND NEW BABY SOON!! I AM SO GRATEFUL TO HAVE FREEDOM AND THIS BEAUTIFUL LAND WERE I LIVE. I AM GRATEFUL FOR GOOD FRIENDS THAT MAKE ME SMILE!! LOVE, C

WHAT A GREAT TRIP!!

WE LEFT ON A THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND DROVE TO OREM, ON THE WAY DOWN WE STOPPED AT SMITH AND EDWARDS COUNTRY STORE, CHEROKEE AND CHEVY LOVED ALL THE CANDY AND FUNNY THINGS WE SAW!! WE SPENT THE NIGHT WITH CONTESSA AND LORIN-ORDERED PIZZA AND WATCHED, "BLINDSIDE!" WE LEFT THE NEXT MORNING FOR CALIFORNIA, WE STOPPED IN ST. GEORGE FOR A LITTLE WALKING BREAK, WENT THRU MOST OF THE OUTLETS, WE LOVED THE OLD NAVY, AND RUE 21 STORE THERE. WE GRABBED SOME LUNCH AND A DRINK THEN HEADED TO PRIMM. WE STAYED AT "WHISKEY PETE'S," IN PRIMM NV, MARTY AND ME BOTH HATE VEGAS, BUT PRIMM WASN'T MUCH BETTER!! THE ROOM WAS NICE THOUGH AND WE WERE ALL TIRED FROM A LONG DAY. WE LEFT THE NEXT MORNING AND DROVE TO BAKER, CALIFORNIA TO SEE THE WORLD'S LARGEST THERMOHEATER, MARTY HAS ALWAYS WANTED TO DO THIS, IT WAS FUN, WE ALSO WENT TO THE WIERD "ALIEN JERKY," PLACE!! THAT ACTUALLY WAS ALOT OF FUN, WE GOT SOME DELICIOUS JERKY AND THEY HAD GREAT PICTURE SPOTS!! AFTER THAT WE DROVE TO BARSTOW AND WE STOPPED AND HAD A ICE-CREAM, THEN ON TO ANEHIEM. WE GOT TO OUR HOTEL AT AROUND 1P.M., DUMPED OFF OUR LUGGAGE AND THEN HEADED TO THE BEACH, CASH LOVED ALL THE SAND AND WATER, BUT I THINK CHEVY AND CHEROKEE LOVED IT THE MOST, THEY CHASED WAVES AND WE BURIED CHEROKEE IN THE SAND!! WE GOT CLAMS AND SEASHELLS FOR LORIN, ALL IN ALL WE HAD FUN, BUT COULDN'T SEEM TO GET THE SAND OFF OF US!!! THE KIDS WERE STARVING SO "LITTLE CEASARS," PIZZA WAS ON THE AGENDA!! WE WENT BACK TO THE HOTEL AND WENT SWIMMING AND SAT IN THE HOT TUB, EVERYONE WAS EXHAUSTED AFTER A LONG DRIVE AND PLAY AT THE BEACH, SO WE HIT THE SACK PRETTY EARLY.
DISNEYLAND-PEOPLE ALWAYS ASK US WHY WE LOVE TO GO TO DISNEYLAND SO MUCH, WELL MARTY AND ME LOVE IT BECAUSE IT IS ONE PLACE WE ALL LOVE TO GO AND THERE IS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE, WE LOVE SEEING OUR KIDS AND THEIR SWEET LITTLE FACES LIGHT UP AT ALL THE RIDES, FOOD, SIGHTS AND SOUNDS. THEY STILL LOVE IT AT THEIR AGES AND SO DO WE, SO WE FIGURE WE WILL DO THE EXOTIC TRIPS WHEN OUR KIDS GET TIRED OF GOING TO DISNEYLAND. WE SAY TO EACH THEIR OWN AND WE HAPPEN TO LOVE DISNEYLAND!!
ANYWAY, OUR FIRST DAY THEIR WAS CRAZY, IT WAS 80 DEGREES AND CASH JUST WANTED TO DO EVERYTHING ALL AT ONCE!! HIS EYES WERE AS BIG AS SAUCERS THE ENTIRE TIME WE WERE THERE, HE LOVED THE PIRATE RIDE AND SPLASH MOUNTAIN!! HE ALSO LOVED WINNIE THE POOH AND HIS FAVORITE, "PETER PAN!" WE WAITED IN LINE FOR 1HR AND 30 MIN. TO GET ON THAT RIDE, AND THEN IT LASTED ABOUT 40SEC. HE LOVED IT ANYWAY AND WANTED MORE!! CHEROKEE AND CHEVY WENT OFF ON THEIR OWN AND DID THE BIG KID RIDES, THEN THEY MET UP WITH US AND MARTY WENT WITH THEM. MARTY AND ME BELIEVE THAT IF WE PAY THAT MUCH MONEY FOR A TRIP, THEN WE WILL STAY TIL THE END, SO WE STAYED OUR FIRST DAY THERE FOR 13HOURS!!! THE SECOND DAY OF OUR VACATION WAS SPENT AT CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE PARK, THEY HAD A LOT CLOSED DOWN FOR REPAIRS, BUT THE KIDS STILL HAD FUN, THEY LOVED THE FREE TORTILLA'S, CASH GOT SOAKED IN THE BUG LIFE LAND, SO WE HAD TO CHANGE HIM, THEN HE FELL ASLEEP FOR 3HOURS. THAT NIGHT WE WALKED DOWNTOWN DISNEY, I LOVE THE RAIN FOREST CAFE AND THE LEGO STORE!!
OUR THIRD DAY WE SENT TO KNOTT'S BERRY FARM, WERE WE ENJOYED THE BEST CHICKEN DINNER AND OF COURSE ROLLS AND JAM!! CASH AND CHEVY BOTH LOVED THE SAMPLE JAM, OUR TEEN-AGERS AND MARTY DID ALL THE ROLLER-COASTERS AND MARTY I THINK WAS A LITTLE SCARED AT TIMES IF HIS HEART WAS GOING TO SURVIVE!! CASH AND ME ENJOYED SNOOPY LAND AND ALL THE OTHER WONDERFUL ATTRACTIONS!! SEEING SNOOPY AT THE END OF HIS DAY, CASH THEN FELL ASLEEP INTO A PEACEFUL NAP! WE HIT ALL THE FUN STORES, BUT BECAUSE OUR BELLIES WERE FULL AND THE FACT THAT FUNNEL CAKE WAS 8.00 FOR ONE, WE HELD BACK EVEN THOUGH THE SMELL WAS WONDERFUL!! THE NEXT TWO DAYS WERE SPENT AT DISNEYLAND AND CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE, WE TOOK TONS OF PICTURES, WATCHED AWESOME FIREWORKS AND PARADES, ATE HAMBURGERS ALOT YUK!!! WE DID HAVE SOME GUMBO, IT WAS ALRIGHT, MARTY LIKED IT THOUGH, PLUS HE GOT A HUGE TURKEY LEG-IT LOOKED LIKE SOMETHING FROM A MEDIEVAL MOVIE!! WE WERE SAD TO LEAVE, BUT WE HAD SO MUCH FUN!! WE STAYED IN ST. GEORGE ON THE WAY HOME, STOPPED IN BARSTOW AT THEIR OLD NAVY AND EVERYTHING WAS 40% OFF, SO WE HAD SOME FUN SHOPPING, WE PICKED UP LORIN AND TESSIE ON THE WAY HOME AND THEY SPENT EASTER AND TESSA'S 20TH BIRTHDAY WITH US!! THE ONLY REAL MISHAP THAT WE HAD WAS, ON THE DAY AFTER THE BEACH, WE GOT INTO THE CAR THAT NIGHT AFTER BEING AT DISNEYLAND ALL DAY IN 80 DEGREE WEATHER, AND OH MY WHAT A WONDERFUL SMELL WE HAD-I FORGOT TO DO SOMETHING WITH THE CLAMS AND THEY ROTTED!!! IT TOOK US ALL THE REST OF OUR VACATION TO GET THE SMELL OUT!! THANKS TO MARTY FOR DRIVING US THERE AND FOR LETTING US HAVE SO MUCH FUN-WE LOVE YOU DADDY!! LOVE,C

WE HAVE BEEN IN THE HIGH 40'S TO LOW 50'S THE PAST THREE DAYS AND I AM LOVING IT, WE PLAYED OUTSIDE AND WENT WALKING AND I THREW OPEN ALL THE WINDOWS FOR A NICE CLEANING OF THE HOUSE, IT SMELLS SO FRESH, WELL EXCEPT AT NIGHT WHEN WE GET SKUNKS UP BY THE PORCH!!! I AM GETTING SO EXCITED FOR SUMMER, EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT THE LAWN MOWER BUSTED, SO IF ANYONE KNOWS OF A RIDING LAWN MOWER FOR SALE, PLEASE LET US KNOW. I REALLY DON'T WANT TO USE THE PUSHING ONE AND CHEVY IS GETTING A JOB, SO IT WILL BE ME PUSHING!! I AM ALSO GETTING EXCITED TO GO TO CALIFORNIA AND HANG OUT ON THE BEACH FOR TEN DAYS!!!!

AS FOR NEWS ABOUT US, CHEVY GOT HIS BRACES ON THE TOP AND HE LOOKS JUST AS CUTE AS CAN BE, HIS BOTTOM ONES COME ON IN ABOUT TWO MONTH-THEY ARE SO OVER PRICED IT'S JUST METAL FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!! CASH HAS BEEN LEARNING LOTS OF NEW WORDS AND SONGS, HE LOVES TO SING, "FOLLOW THE PROPHET," AND WE TAUGHT HIM A SONG ABOUT ST. PATRICKS DAY THAT HE SINGS AT THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS!! THANKS AUNT WENDY FOR THE WORDS!! SPEAKING OF WENDY-SHE SENT ME HOME WITH A WHOLE LOT OF GOODIES FOR MY HOUSE THE OTHER DAY-MARTY JUST ROLLS HIS EYES AT ME, BUT THANKS ANYWAYS WENDY AND NORM!! WE HOPE YOUR MOVE GOES SMOOTHLY-AND LOVE YOU BOTH!! BACK TO OUR FAMILY-CHEROKEE WENT TO DISTRICT COMPETION AND TOOK FIRST IN ALL THREE CATAGORIES, SO SHE IS GOIN TO STATE IN APRIL IN TWIN FALLS, WE ARE SO PROUD OF HER, SHE WON A $500 SCHOLARSHIP FOR THE CITY OF COMMERCE AND THE BOARD MEMBERS TOLD US THAT EVERYONE ON THE BOARD VOTED FOR HER. SHE JUST HAS A WAY WITH WORDS AND AND SUCH A POSITIVE ATTITUDE, HER FAITH IN HER HEAVENLY FATHER ASTOUNDS ME AND I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR HER. I AM EXCITED FOR HER TO BECOME A NURSE, SHE CAN TAKE CARE OF ME WHEN I NEED MY DIAPER CHANGED!! HA! MARTY IS JUST BUSY AS A BEE, HE IS SO GOOD TO ME AND OUR KIDS, I LOVE HIM AND AM ALSO PROUD THAT HE HAS BEEN BLESSED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE TO WORK HARD, I AM GRATEFUL THAT HIS DAD INSTILLED IN HIM THE TALENTS THAT HE HAS, I KNOW HE MISSES HIS DAD ALOT. CONTESSA AND LORIN ARE DOING GREAT, THEY ARE SO EXCITED TO BECOME PARENTS, I AM EXCITED FOR THIS NEW PATH IN THEIR LIVES. I AM SO HAPPY FOR LORIN AND THE WAY HE IS EMBRACING THE GOSPEL, HE WAS MADE A PRIEST LAST TUES. NIGHT, I THINK HE WAS A LITTLE NERVOUS, BUT HE WILL BE GREAT. CONTESSA LOOKS AS CUTE AS CAN BE, I AM SO PROUD OF HER AND HOW MUCH SHE HAS GROWN AND ACCEPTED THINGS IN HER LIFE THAT ARE POSITIVE, I LOVE HER SO MUCH AND I MISS HER SMILING FACE AT HOME, BUT I AT LEAST GET TO TALK TO HER TWO OR THREE TIMES A DAY. LIFE IS JUST GREAT, EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE TRIALS AND SOMETIMES SORROWS, I HAVE TO BE SO GRATEFUL FOR ALL THAT I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH. HAVE A HAPPY DAY TO ALL!! LOVE, C

WOW WHAT A WEEKEND

I TOLD MARTY THAT WHENEVER WE GO AWAY, IT SEEMS LIKE ALOT OF WORK TO GET THERE AND BY THE TIME I COME HOME I AM EXHAUSTED AND NEED TO SLEEP FOR 8 HOURS!! WE HAD A FUN WEEKEND WITH THE ZIPPAY FAMILY AND MARTY AND ME EVEN GOT A NIGHT TO OURSELVES, THAT HASN'T HAPPENED IN OVER A YEAR-TO BAD WE JUST WANTED TO FALL ASLEEP!! IT WAS A AWESOME BAPTISM AND LORIN DID A GREAT JOB, I THINK HE WAS VERY NERVOUS TO HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE FOCUS THEIR ATTENTION ON JUST HIM, BUT IT WAS GREAT AND THE SPIRIT THERE WAS VERY STRONG. MARTY DID A GREAT JOB ALSO, I KNOW HE WAS NERVOUS ABOUT THE WHOLE THING TOO, HE HELD TIGHT TO LORIN SO HE WOULDN'T SLIP TO FAR UNDER!! CASH HAD WAY TO MUCH FUN WITH LORIN'S BIRDS AND OF COURSE GOT SPOILED WAY TO MUCH, CONTESSA AND ME WENT SHOPPING WITH SHAWNA AND WENDY AND WE FOUND SOME CUTE MATERNITY CLOTHES FOR HER AND OF COURSE THE BABY!! CONTESSA LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE BUTTER BALL, SHE IS GOING TO BE SUCH A GOOD LITTLE MOMMY. I HAVE TO SAY THAT I AM THANKFUL I LIVE IN IDAHO NOW, THE CRAZINESS OF UTAH ABOUT DROVE ME BONKERS, I GUESS I HAVE CHANGED ALOT SINCE WE MOVED, I WAS GLAD TO GET HOME LAST NIGHT AND CRAWL INTO MY OWN SOFT BED!! IT WAS A GREAT WEEKEND AND WE ARE SO PROUD OF THE ZIPPAY'S LOVE YA ALL, C

GOOD GRIEF LIFE IS BUSY!!

I TOLD MARTY THE OTHER DAY THAT WE MUST BE GETTING OLDER, BECAUSE TIME JUST SEEMS TO NEVER BE STILL!! I USE TO DREAD IT WHEN HE WOULD LEAVE TO GO TO UTAH TO WORK AND NOW IT SEEMS LIKE HE GOES AND IS BACK OVERNIGHT, I THINK IT MUST BE PARTLY DUE TO THE FACT THAT I KEEP VERY BUSY AT HOME WITH MY THREE MONSTERS, AND THE FACT THAT I KEEP MYSELF BUSY IN MY HOME. I CAN'T EVEN GET A GOOD BOOK READ, I SEEM TO FALL ASLEEP IF I SIT DOWN TO LONG. OH WELL I WANTED MY LIFE TO HAVE FULLFILMENT AND KNOW I AM BLESSED WITH AN OVER LOAD OF HAPPINESS!! I PUT SOME CURTAINS UP IN OUR BEDROOM, I HAVE NEVER BEEN A GOOD SLEEPER, BUT SINCE WE MOVED TO IDAHO IT GOT EVEN WORSE, ANYWAY I GOT THIS IDEA THAT MAYBE IF I BLOCKED OUT THAT BIG OLD MOON I WOULDN'T THINK IT WAS MORNING AND WAKE UP. I AM SOOO HAPPY TO SAY THAT EVER SINCE I GOT MY CURTAINS UP I HAVE SLEPT EVERY NIGHT, EXCEPT OF COURSE WHEN CASH WAKES UP(HE IS SLEEPING THRU THE NIGHT BETTER), I CLOSE MY DOORS, CLOSE THE CURTAINS, TURN THE HEAT WAY DOWN AND AS MARTY SAYS, "WE GO TO SLEEP IN OUR TOMB!" I LOVE IT, MAYBE I AM PART VAMPIRE OR MAYBE IT IS JUST PLAIN OLD MENOPAUSE!! ANYWAY, IT SEEMS LIKE A LONG TIME SINCE I BLOGGED, LIFE HAS BEEN GOOD. ON VALENTINE'S DAY MARTY AND ME CELEBRATED THE FACT THAT WE WENT OUT ON OUR FIRST DATE, 21 YEARS AGO. I REMEMBER IT CLEARLY FOR TWO REASONS, FIRST HE TOOK ME TO A RATED R SHOW-WHICH I DON'T WATCH, BUT WAS TO AFRAID TO SAY ANYHTHING, SECOND AND THIS IS THE REASON I FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM, WE WENT TO HARDEE'S AFTER OUR DATE AND IT WAS FREEZING OUTSIDE IT WAS LIKE MIDNIGHT AND HE LEFT HIS BIG OLD ORANGE TRUCK RUNNING THE ENTIRE TIME WE WAS IN HARDEE'S. HE DIDN'T WANT ME TO BE COLD WHEN WE WENT OUTSIDE, SO HE WASTED GAS FOR OVER A HOUR, I THOUGHT HE WAS A KEEPER IF HE WOULD DO THAT FOR ME ON THE FIRST DATE. HE TAKES SUCH GOOD CARE OF ME STILL TO THIS DAY AND I AM SO THANKFUL FOR THAT LITTLE ARROW THAT GOT OUR HEARTS!!! I THINK THAT MARRIAGE IS A PROCESS OF SEASONING, OVER THE YEARS MARTY AND ME HAVE BEEN THRU TOUGH TIMES, BUT WE ALWAYS COME OUT SMILING AND I KNOW IT IS BECAUSE WE PUT EACH OTHER FIRST ALWAYS. WE HAVE BEEN HAVING FUN GETTING OUR BASEMENT DONE AND JUST LAUGHING TOGETHER WITH A FEW PUTTY FIGHTS IN BETWEEN. WE HAVE ALMOST GOT THE TEXTURING DONE AND HAVE BEEN TRYING TO DECIDE WHAT TO DO WITH THE FIREPLACE, I WANT IT ALL VERY PRIMITIVE, SO IT WILL BE EXCITING TO SEE WHAT WE DECIDE ON!! AS FOR THE KIDS AND THEIR NEWS, CHEROKEE IS SO READY TO GRADUATE AND GET ON WITH LIFE, SHE HAS DECIDED TO BECOME A NURSE SO I AM VERY EXCITED FOR HER, SHE HAS THE BRAINS SO I TOLD HER TO GO FOR IT, BECAUSE ONCE YOU ARE MARRIED IT IS WAY HARDER TO GET A EDUCATION!!! CHEVY GETS TO HAVE BRACES ON IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS, THEY SURE HAVE GOTTEN PRICY SINCE OUR LAST CHILD, HE IS SUCH A GOOD HELPER TO ME, I DO REWARD HIM WITH VIDEO GAME TIME THOUGH. HE WANTS TO WORK AT BEAR WORLD THIS SUMMER. CASH IS JUST FULL OF MISCHEIF AND HAS A MOUTH THAT NEVER QUITS ASKING, DEMANDING AND BEING SASSY!! CONTESSA AND LORIN ARE DOING WELL, SHE IS FINALLY FEELING A LITTLE BETTER, VERY BIG AND TIRED THOUGH. GRANDMA AND MOMMY SPOIL LITTLE KENNEDY ALOT ALREADY, I CAN'T WAIT TO BE A GRANDMA!!! LORIN IS TAKING THE MISSIONARY DISCUSSIONS AND WE ARE EXCITED FOR WHAT EVER HE DECIDES, WE ARE JUST THANKFUL THAT HE LOVES OUR DAUGHTER. I AM VERY THANKFUL FOR LIFE AND ALL THAT IT TEACHES US, I MISS SEEING MY SIBLINGS AND THINK IT IS TIME FOR A SPRING HOLIDAY FOR US ALL!! I WOULD EVEN SETTLE FOR A ONE DAY THING, IT IS NICE TO HAVE FAMILY. I LOVE YOU ALL AND HOPE YOUR LIVES ARE BLESSED WITH LOVE THIS VALENTINE'S SEASON!! HUGS AND KISSES C
P.S.- FOR MARTY I KNOW YOU READ THIS SO HERE IS A BIG KISS FOR YOU, CHEER UP THINGS ALWAYS GET BETTER IF YOU HAVE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE, BESIDES IT JUST SOME DUMB CAR-DON'T LET IT KICK YOUR BUTT-KICK IT!!! LOVE YA C
