dad looking towards pioneer trek for next year

dear family
we are working hard in our callings (me nurshery) bryan (stake pres)he is getting involved with next years trek plans--they traveled to wyoming to look at the trek sight...then last night a stake picnic---and a rigorious schedule today planning out stake conference--he will speak in the adult session and then in the general session.
we love to hear in your comings and goings--we are thankful for what you do in your callings too-
 we do want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers--just thought we should tell you that once in awhile
  

so many blessings

as we helped assemble bed and then watch the kids (in the kirk family) just into them --in their new home--we couldn't help think --of the anticipation for that long awaited day--when they could be in their beds all snuggly in their new -home--this will be the beginning of so many memories--they will build together there--we are ever grateful that  Heavenly father has seen fit for this miricle to happen.

where the wild things are

we enjoyed watching a little skit production 'where the wild things are'  with megan and her other friends that joined together to perform the skit as part of a summer murray theatre program--it make us smile--and she did a really good job

soccer games

we've really enjoyed that soccer games have started again--we surely love rotating to the different games--between the grandkids--they give it their all and they make us smile--wow its a lot of running

pioneer celebration

while kaci and forrest were here from alaska there was a lot of cousing time together and dress ups were part of all that fun
one day we dressed up like pioneers and watched aunt evelyn tell a pioneer story on the dvd--all the kids ate popcycles  to remember how they ate ice--at times--and we just had a little pioneer parade with each other...it was a fun day--talking about those who have gone before to make our heritage so rich--they kids were really cute about it...next time we'll include some virginia reel dancing or something
