happy 26th Birthday Brianne

HAPPY 26TH BIRTHDAY BRIANNE--A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE.....I THINK MAYLEY LOOKS LIKE YOU..FOR SURE
WHAT A LITTLE CUTIE

you always try to make your kids birthdays so much fun --we hope that you have had fun today too--on your own birthday...we love you we put your "top Ten" in your birthday card, for ya.

but there are so many more than 10 reasons we love you...have a wonderful year.

so glad that you were born May 11-1982 To such a wonderful family, she told us how Brittany looked through the nurshrey window at her new little sister but Brittany thought that Brianne wasn't her sister because Brianne had lots of black hair and Brittany had brown hair. either way she was pretty from the start..Brianne was born at Cottonwood hospital (and incidently gave birth to Mayley and Hunter at that same hospital)

You make life so much fun for your kids...

Happy Birthday BRIANNE

this great lady had a birthday this one standing here...Father in Heaven bless her --throughout the coming yearYou are such a great wife and mother

I hope my family remembers a few things about me when I leave this frail existance...

Hello family -- In response to nancy's challenge about --writing a bit about myself I hope that my family remembers a few things about me when I leave this frail existance such as:

1) That I truly had a testimony of the Gospet of Jesus Christ and all his teachings...and that I tried to share that testimony with my children, and grandchildren in day to day conversations.

2) that I tried to look on the "Sunny side" of life-- (let me expound a bit)

I know my perkiness is not longer "cute" sometimes and often I even get teased for a positive attitude but I learned early on in my life a little trick that comes from the scriptures actually...
"as a man thinketh ---so is he"
I learned early on to think positive and the most interesting thing happens....it has an effect
I don't know how the magic of it works it just does---so anyway --just know that if the truth be know I often feel blue and sad and frustrated and lonely quite often actually--but then I think and act as though I am happy and low and behold it often has that affect on me outlook--

1like a song song on the radio says--"hey ....that's the way we like it goodtimes, shineshine and summer time"

*3 that I always knew that marrying Bryan W. Call was the best decision I ever made in mortality; and that I believe that he is the most wonderful man that Heavenly father could have sent to me. I believe that is such a great husband and dad--I believe the best thing a mom and dad can do for their children is to love each other---

*4 I believe that Positive music can set the tone in our homesthat learning to sing (even if your not blessed with a good voice) and learning instruments
can bless your life and your family's life too

*5 I believe that if we listen to the still small voice of the Holy Ghost and act upon Those promptings the Lord can use us as an instrument in his hands to bless the lives of others, that come into our paths also listentin the spirit--makes all the difference --in our happiness here.

*6 I love being a wife and mother that is the greatest joy of my life and knowing that my children & husband love me in return is the greatest satisfaction that I derive from mortality

it is a pleasure to work and serve those we love and we should always speak in respectful voices to each other and that we should all be friends together and help each other so that we can all sit down in Heaven one day together and that will be nucleus of what we can build our eternities upon.

six is my favorite number--and I'll stop with those six although there are more --with the hopes that you will read them and don't forget to "remember me"

love--mom

almost week of school for me

looking forward to winding up my school year--

kids & keyboard fun--

the girls also had a fun time playing on the piano at Mayley's birthday party--it reminds me of the piano in the movie "Big" I love piano playing.

what is more fun than having five grand daughters and one grandson--? well having them all serenade me while playing the key board is pretty fun too....I lay upon the top of the bed and pretended I was tired (I didn't have to fake it very hard) and they played for me to make me feel better--most of the time they hit the "demo" key but it was pretty cute--megan and hunter tried to get in the act too --but the older three--stood there ground..fun day-

Spring projects: dad had this fabulous idea to stain the deck last week it looks so much better--than before
thanks honey for all your hard work--(I tried to help--but after five minutes my elbows tuckered out--as well as the rest of me and I went inside to take a nap)_ he is so determined he stuck with it from sanding it with the wire brush to rolling and then painting by hand -- what the roller couldn't reach--Like I said "looks great!" here are some before and after--you be the judge--come by and see it... I love it! that was the best part of my day that day--looking out at it.

dad and Bryan get sprinkler system started

Well--its coming along Bryan's and dad used their bonze and brains and got bryan and Brianne' topsoil --moved around a few weeks ago. Then this past Sat. the main project was the sprinkler system getting started. Dad's know how of wiring sprinklers units long ago came in handy, they were going great guns on that Sat. Also Bryan has the fence post dug and has been working so hard to get everything in order for hydro-seeding the grass--I forgot to take a picture of them out their working their tails off--but they got the lines in and its working--

...I was impressed bryan was driving the bob cat around like a pro moving all the big rocks and hauling them off (Tooele must "grow" big rocks"_ cause there were lots) anyhow its going to look so nice when they build the new deck and get it all how they want it I say we have a big party out there to break in the new deck--I told bryan that and he said sure thing--maybe for hunter and kaci's birthday this summer-- (:
--its fun for me--cause when Bryan and dad work together then I have an excuse to go visit with Brianne and play with the kids for a few hours. --it was a fun weekend. mom
