Time with My Dad

Sometime, I will write up my thoughts
of my Dad...and part of his history
as I know it...

Spent time...pondering
over my own life...what I was 
like, then...and what I
am becoming...

Hard to believe...I had lived a completely
different life....once...

For now...this could be my last picture with my 
Father...

Taken 30 August 2004
 Between 5:30 - 6:00
in the morning...

 I couldn't decide which picture to post...

  Dad and Garvin
 Garvin's "61st" Birthday...

Girls Night Out - Celebrated Granddaughter's Birthday

I do believe it was a FIRST for me...
"Three" Generations...
went out to celebrate a BIRTHDAY...
a movie...
a little mall-jamming...
JUST PLAIN FUN!
It was Savannah's "10th" birthday...
Sarah (My daughter), Rose (daughter-in-law), took baby Adelaide (newest grandbaby), Savannah (granddaughter) and myself...
went to see "Maleficent" at the dollar theater...Savannah's choice...
Managed to eat very BUTTERY popcorn...and a bit of candy...
Afterwards, went to the mall...so that Savannah could
get her ears pierced...and Rose needed a couple of tops...
Went to "Barnes and Noble" to get Savannah her
FREE cupcake, because it was her birthday!

 A very HAPPY new "10" Year Old
Savannah




 What was nice for Savannah to see...is that
her Mama...knows how to be silly and have 
FUN! GREAT MEMORY making day!

A SPECIAL THANK YOU...to
Garvin and Caleb...who watched all the
other children...so that this night
could be made possible!

Our Idaho Country Drive

Garvin and I decided that our "Date Night" would be an
afternoon and evening event. How we both needed it!

In our mini adventure...we discovered not only a
lake but, sand dunes to go with it...smile
We are so excited to one day... go with our
family...with Luke bringing his 4-wheeler along...
Luke...we so thought of you...when we discovered this place!

So, included, are pictures I took along the way...

Garvin had me take these first two pictures for Rick Miller.
He is evidently looking into building a dome-like home
in Missouri...So, Rick, we are providing an idea...




Managed to capture this HAWK...
 

These purple flowers were all along the 
the ditch banks...
 


 A few does and bucks
 



 Geese and a Mama duck with her little ones
 
Wild flowers
 
EGIN LAKE with
St. Anthony's Sand Dunes
in the background...
Can access the dunes
from the lake...







 It was quite a WINDY DAY...as you can see the sand
flying off the dunes (upper pictures)...and the ripples in the 
water... 
 
St. Anthony, Idaho
I spied this small flower
garden along the road...just
before the freeway...
Garvin was patient with me...
and let me get out to take these 
beautiful pictures...smile 







I picture HEAVEN being alot like this...
filled with BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS...
EVERYWHERE! Sigh....
 

I want you to know...
I DID NOT mess with the COLORS of this
incredible SUNSET...
I was thrilled that my camera...as simple as it is...
managed to capture the GORGEOUS
setting of the sun...
It was a spectacular sight!
 
A perfect ending to a much
needed day of 
exploring...

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
