"I promise you that if you will keep your journals and records, they will indeed be a source of great inspiration to your families, to your children, your grandchildren, and others, on through the generations. Each of us is important to those who are near and dear to us-and as our posterity read of our life's experiences, they too, will come to know and love us. And in that glorious day when our families are together in the eternities, we will already be acquainted. What could you do better for your children and your children's children than to record the story of your life, your triumphs over adversity, your recovery after a fall, your progress when all seemed black, your rejoicing when you had finally achieved? Some of what you write may be humdrum dates and places, but there will also be rich passages that will be quoted by your posterity. We hope you will begin as of this date." ~Spencer W. Kimball


"In family relationships, love is really spelled t-i-m-e." _Dieter F. Uchtdorf

A persons own family is without a doubt, the greatest wealth that we will ever possess. Treasure every moment and take the time to ensure that the story you create is one that you will be proud of and look back on with a huge smile.

Last two days with Vilma in Idaho and Utah


Vilma wanted to see snow.
 I am so happy it snowed before she left!



Brianna and Deacon drove us to SLC the night before Vilma's flight.



After dinner in SLC, we took her to see the lights at Temple Square.










Deacon cried so much when it was time to say goodbye.
 Vilma did too.

Thanksgiving weekend


Thanksgiving was at Richie's this year.
There was plenty of room for all of us and everything was so yummy!
 We had tons of food, fruit salads, and desserts.
That's the best part of having large families.
 Every body gets to pitch in especially with the cleaning up.

Everything is grown in this farm. The bread is homemade.
Delicious!

Giselle got us all tickets to ride a train to Colorado.
Two days after Vilma arrived, we drove to the 
SLC train station.
