Fun with Jason

Rocket blasting off

Our son Jason came out last week and we had fun with him. He went shopping with Tyler and Abby, Snow mobiling, Ice fishing and we even had fun at Chuck E Cheese
Tyler had fun blasting off rockets in the church parking lot and our yard with his
uncle. We really miss him but he loves the east coast and his two sphynx cats.

It's beginning to look like Christmas...


Tyler and Abby came over to stay with Grandma last night and wanted to
play Santa Claus so I cut some batting to make beards and grabbed some
red hats and I thought this was a very cute picture. They went around acting like Santa and asking what everyone wanted for Christmas. Even baby Kristoff got in his red hat.

We have a new baby at our house

We have a new baby named Kristoff and his new adopted parents staying with us for the
next couple weeks till the paper work is processed. They are some of our friends from
Md. that wanted a baby for a long time. They were temple workers back at the DC Temple and friends of ours. We are enjoying the new baby and watching his Mommy and
Daddy be first time parents which is such a blessing for them and us. I am definetly
ready for my new little grandbaby in March. I have been holding and feeding this
cute little one and am ready for Wendy's to come in March. Wendy was glad that I
am having this experience because I was a little shocked when she told me (excuse me, big time shocked) Newborns are so incredible you wonder how Heavenly father could create such a wonderful blessing for us.
For any who is interested in what he looks like. Here is his blog address:

You can choose....

As I was getting my lesson ready for primary I listened to a talk from BYU week that talked about your attitude. You can choose to get the most out of
your teaching or you can be miserable. You can choose to get the most out of sacrament meetings or you can choose to not listen and be bored. You can choose if you want to be happy or you can choose to be sad. The choice is what you make it in anything. This really got to me since two weeks ago I broke my ankle in Md. Had a Dr. call in Md. to tell me that my immunities were shot and I had to have those terribly expensive shots,and another to tell me I had a large mass on the left kidney and what hospital did I prefer to go too. I felt overwhelmed for the past several weeks with too much from DOCTORS. So I choose to get better and enjoy life. I choose to try to do the things I can and I choose not to let all these things overwhelm me. So if you see me driving with my left foot and not causing an accident it is because I choose not to sit and be miserable. Yes I did feel sorry for myself the past days but as he said you are what you choose. So I am going to do what the
dr.s say, play all the christmas music for the handbells and be a reader on the polar express. Watch my beautiful grandchildren when needed and choose to be happy.
WHAT IS YOUR CHOICE DO YOU CHOOSE TO BE THE BEST..........

DO NOT RIDE FOUR WHEELERS DURING HUNTING SEASON


John and I decided to go for a ride Saturday up in the Wasatch, Bad Idea unless you were wearing bright orange hunting gear. I wish I would have had a bright orange something so we would not get the look like you were invading the big hunters all in a row as we rode by them. They looked at us like get the heck out of here. When we got close to the bottom where we were parked. I saw tons of deer and yelled run for your lives. Some looked as if they knew what I was saying.We also saw some moose. Those deer are smart. Only the dumb ones get shot. They seem to know where to avoid.Sorry all you big hunters, but I am an animal lover and especially the deer.Deer meat is never going to get near me.....

I do understand if that is what guys like to do. Just give me a fishing pole.
