Mama's Day - 2015


What an incredible day!
I got to talked with ALL of my children...
including Josh...smile

Garvin stayed home from church, today, due to his
coughing...but, I had attended SACRAMENT meeting...
I felt this "pull" to go home, instead of attending
Sunday School and Relief Society...
thinking it was because of Garvin's situation...I was to go home...
But, the real reason...for the PULL...
I would have MISSED Josh's call...if I had NOT
gone home...I was home about 20 minutes...when
he called...(there is a 9 hour difference)

Then, on top of all that...Hyrum and Jessica...had a surprise...
for Ramona and I...
John (Jessica's dad) made DINNER FOR ALL OF US!
The "4" of them brought it over to our home...
and SURPRISED me beyond WORDS!
(well, not completely MUTE - smile)

 Special treats from Hyrum and Jessica...


Mamas and our babies...

Getting all the delicious food...

Rolls, baked potatoes, steak...strawberry shortcake...
goodies, asparagus, and lots of LOVE!

John...who made it all possible...
THANK YOU SO MUCH JOHN...!
for making all the food!

and thank YOU, Jessica...
for my darling gifts...
little jungle animals to add to my "grandchildren's" play area...
and those "Civil War" History Channel DVDS...
Can hardly wait to watch them! (will definitely share with your Mama)

the day he left to go home...last week...

Here is our very own...

Grandparents Day at School...


There have been many a blessing...since moving to Idaho...
Today, we got to attend our FIRST "Grandparent's Day"
at Alayna's elementary school...

I took my camera, so I could take pictures of our 
activities in the classroom...and had left it in the car...
(bummer)

Due to some of the children who did not have "grandparents"
at this event...we got "3" "adopted" little girls to
be surrogate grandparents to...
I absolutely LOVED IT!
smile

After our "activities"...we took Alayna out to lunch...
So fun! She really had a great time...
You can tell by these pictures...
smile

 A kindly lady saw us taking pictures...
and asked if we would like a picture of the "3" of us...
smile




 Papa took this picture...of Alayna enjoying her food...
smile

She was such a DELIGHT to be with, today...
Thank YOU, Alayna...for asking us
to participate..."Grandparents Day at School"!
LOVED IT!

Cat...Bird...Chicken...


A few months ago...I befriended a "wild" cat...
Thinking...if I fed the cat, she would stick
around...and catch mice for us...

Last week...our fearless feline...was given a big test...
I found a mouse in one of our boxes in the
garden shed...I got the cat to follow me
out to the shed...I tipped the box...in the cat's direction so that
she could catch the mouse........The mouse...
got out of the box...RAN RIGHT PASS the CAT...
mouse got away...and the cat...just wanted me...
(sigh...)

So, today, I watched the most bizarre situation...
The cat was given leftover CHICKEN...
She was kind of toying with it...when this magpie...came along...





This magpie made several trips...
ended up with ALL the chicken!

 Unbelievable...
