Manti

Today is our 32nd anniversay. It doesn't seem like it was that long ago. I still remember the day so well. But I look in the mirror and look at our children and grandchildren, I know it has been that long. We have been very blessed in our lives. So glad we have each other.

Happy Father's Day, Mark

I am so blessed to have this wonderful man as the father of my children. Love you lots, Mark.

Another delayed blog

Here we are, four months later and no blog. Not a lot has been happening. Mark and I left the 11th of Jan., in the truck. Mark has been on the road most of time since then. I came home the end of March.
I was able to go help Wade and Lauren move into their new house. It was an interesting couple of days, waiting for the approval to move in and then getting everything in.
Coltin turned one on April 1st. I was able to celebrate it with him. I can't believe how big he is getting. He's walking all over the place.
All of the other grandkids are growing and getting so old. I enjoy my Sundays with them.
How blessed we are to have such a good family.

A New Year.

I have been very bad at updating my blog. It's not that nothing happened, a lot has happened. We have been so very blessed to have a wonderful family. Six wonderful sons, five beautiful daughters-in-law, and the best eight grandchildren. How we love each of them.
Mark continues to drive truck and enjoys it. He really appreciates the chance to do it and especially after this week. Kelly, Mindy and family went to CA so Mark has to be milkman. He said it was so hard standing on the cement floors again. The truck looks really good right now.
A few things that happened since my last blog. Owen was blessed on Sept.4. Our family picture was taken that day. We had everyone there.
On Oct. 10, Brian and Sierra were sealed in the Logan Temple. What a special day.
We had Thanksgiving dinner here at our house. We had Jeff's family, Brian and Sierra, and Brad and his girlfriend, Cassey here. It was a good weekend.
Christmas Eve was spent at Dad and Mom Hurst house. Christmas morning, we went to Kelly's, then Tyler's houses for the opening of the gifts. We also went to see Dad and Mom Stoker. They were at Curtis' house so enjoyed visiting with them. Then on to our house to open our gifts with Brian and Sierra and Brad and Cassey. Then we went back down to the Hurst's home to visit with them and Darla and Glen.
The next day, we drove to Emmett to deliver Christmas to Jeff's family. We also got to celebrate Ethan's 5th birthday. We stayed till Monday morning.
New Year Eve, Wade and Lauren came to spend the weekend. Braxton and Addison also got to spend it with us. The next night, Tyler and Jolynne and Brad and Cassey came over and we ate pizza and played games.
It was a busy but wonderful holiday season. We were so happy to be able to spend time with each family member. We love each of them so much.

Manti

We had a two great weekends going to Boise for Lauren's endownment and then to Manti to witness the sealing of Wade and Lauren. It was a wonderful two days.
