How We Treat Our Visitors...

Nothing like coming to visit us...

and end up being put to work...

smile

Fran LOVES to SERVE...so, she rolled up her sleeves,

so-to-speak...and became involved in helping us...

with getting our wood supply put up...

 

 Garvin is gaining back his strength...

so, he is attempting to tackle

our wood supply...for the winter months...

 Arrgggg.....Why do my boys

make so many faces! 

 I had to smile how Garvin and Hyrum

had nearly the same facial expression

on their faces...smile

NOT easy pounding in posts on this land...

seems there are LOTS of ROCKS...

in the soil...Had to attempt a few times...

to get the posts in the ground...

 I LOVE working in "comfortable" clothes...

Sandals work, too! smile

 

LOVE working together!

 

MY Heroes! George, Ben, and Abraham....

As most of you know...

I am a LOVER of American History...

Today...it thrilled me to IMAGINE

having taken pictures with

"3" of my heroes...

 Me and George Washington

 Me and Benjamin Franklin

Me and Abraham Lincoln

AH...one day...I will look forward to real conversations 

with them...in the spirit world...We will have

MUCH to discuss...smile

Jackson Hole and Mini Reunion

What an incredible SUMMER...

We have had FAMILY and FRIENDS come visit us...

here in our new home...

Nobody seems to care that we are still fixing things up...

boxes in some areas...

rooms unfinished...

This past week...we have had TWO dear friends come

stay with us...Fran Miller, now living in MISSOURI...

and Bob Shepherd...from FLORIDA...

Today, we took Fran to Jackson Hole...in Wyoming...

She had never been there...so, we thought the

drive would be so fun...

Actually, the scenery is GORGEOUS!

Here is a sampling of our trip, today...

 Fran kissing this moose...for her 

daughter, Becky...who LOVES MOOSES!

(plural for MOOSE?)

 Fran with her BROTHER...Bob

 Fran, Bob, and Garvin

 Fran had to try sitting on a SADDLE 

that was in place of a "stool" ...

smile

For YOU...Becky Richins!

Just Being Girls...

On extremely RARE occasions...an opportunity arrives...

where we... Grown-Up Women... get a moment to get away...

for some "time out"...

just to be silly "girls"...

With the help of Garvin and Rick Miller, who spent nearly "3" hours

watching all the little ones...Fran Miller, Rebekah, Sarah,

Jessica Roberts, Callie Wilson, and myself...

went out to lunch together...at Cafe Rio...

(MY FIRST TIME)

SO FUN...and the FOOD was TERRIFIC!

I had so much fun...capturing "moments"...

that simply..... DELIGHTED us!

smile

(L to R) Jessica, Rebekah, and Sarah

Jessica, Mama, and Fran

 SISTERS!

They certainly know how to entertain each other!

(and the rest of us!)

smile

Bekah and Sarah - rubbing off... onto

Cousin Callie! smile

Welcome to the family, Jessica!

You fit RIGHT in!

smile

 Guess where their CHILDREN get all their

"silliness"?....smile

These TWO...are MOTHERS of "8" children...collectively...!

I must show all my grandchildren...

that their mothers are truly "human"...and KNOW how to 

have FUN! smile

 

YES...! We had a GREAT TIME!
