4th

When the Fremont High School marching band started to play "God Bless America" at the July 4th parade, I got so emotional. I had all of my children and grandchildren around all weekend long. Blake is exactly where I want him to be and he is doing awesome. Once again I was overwhelmed at all of my blessings. Boy I do love my family.

My little brothers visit

My little brother lives in Texas and one of my sisters lives in Idaho. It is a too rare occasion that all 4 of can get together. Scott was in town for his sons graduation from the U of U. We had a great visit with him and his wife Rose. It was so great to see them.

I cannot believe that Luke is old enough to graduate from kindergarten. It seems like just last year that he was a tiny little guy. He is such a super reader, loves to play with his legos. He is loving Tball. He is an awesome big brother to his three little sisters. I love you Luke!

Jay and go to St George every April for Utah League of Cities and Towns. Knowing that Shannon and Jed would be having a baby sometime in the month, I was very hopeful that it would not happen until after we got back home. Just as we were getting in the car to head for St George, Shannon called and said she was at the hospital. Kael Davis arrived 9 days early just as we were pulling into Cedar City. Needless to say I could hardly wait to get home and see this beautiful little guy. What a sweetheart.

Kind of a funny picture. I am watching Jake and JoEllen's girls (my nephew and his wife's girls). Meg and Jess came over with all their girls and Adam just to hang out. The kids did really great getting to know each other. Here is Abigail telling all of the others to smile. Sarah is not real sure of it all yet, but by the end of the day, they were climbing on the bunk beds and having a great time togethers. This one is just a Sunday afternoon and I was getting Hailey Muffin into her jammies.
