purpose of my blog

I realize blogs are suppose to allow you to let it all hang out, but is it possible that some people let too much hang out. I think I want my blog to pass on info about my family and the joys and trials that come in life without losing my perspective of who I am.
Well today would have been my Brendas 42nd birthday and yes I still miss her, but alot of things have happened in my life to help me get through the times like this. One of them is my husband who is very special to me and all my new kids and grandkids. When you have these things and a belief that there is life after death it makes it all okay.

Had a lazy day, but fun some of the kids came over and swam and we ate. Melisas family joined us and it was good to see them. Dad cooked the dogs and we ate salads and etc. It was nice to have a time to remember our pioneer heritage and to celebrate the families we have because of that heritage. Its great to be in Utah, we still are safe in our little world and enjoying it.

Well I am headed for a long weekend and the many fun things that we can do as a family. The pool in the back has been a good investment, not so much play station and a lot more hot fresh air. Did get guitar hero and they play a little bit, but not as much as they want to. Tomorrow is pioneer day and so its a holiday and ron will be off. went to see willy wonka Jr. Kristopher played Augustus Gloop. the play was very well done and the young people were amazing. Becki has bronchitis and is feeling poorly but that gives us an excuse to help her and watch the baby. Friday, the girls and I are going to see Mama Mia, a little risque but ever so funny

apparently I can put pictures now if I can figure out how I did It.

still not in the box but working on it

well I still can't get pictures on, but I love my floor. Ron, Karissa, Bonnie, and Russell celebrated birthdays and Kimberly celebrated her unbirthday. Russell turned 12 and is now officially a Deacon as of tonight. the weather is nice and warm and we have enjoyed the pool its one of those stand alone 15 ft. but cool. Our first party as activity People was yesterday morning and after it was over we crawled into bed never to recover. Old people hurt when they have had fun. I'm doing summer school and last week some of the teachers and I feeling a little risque went to see Mama Mia a fantastic musical. Still laughing. Brenda June is sitting and weighs in an 17 lbs. Mac is now officially taller than grandma. Kristopher is starring in Willy wonka at the Hale Theater and is Agustus something of another, will be seeing it on Tues. Will take pictures and see if I can get them posted In the mean time Love
