enjoyed our family dinner

Everyone pulled away in there cars now--but I just felt happy that we could get together for our Sunday dinner.  Besides being able to take the sacrament --no wonder Sunday is my favorite day of the week.  Thanks for the visit and your good company and for the food you brought--I loved it!!!
thanks for giving dad and I something to look forward to-  we get lonesome here just hanging around.
  okay maybe we're on the go sometimes --but we still love the chaos and the noise and the little children doing skits and the adults visiting and we love you all for taking time to miss your nap and come.  smiley face

Crystal Hot springs outing

time was running out for the  voucher bryan gave nancy to go to crystal hot springs so I was the lucky one to get to use it __I took cindy, gail paula and ellen and we have a great relaxing afternoon and good visit.  I will go there with any one any time--the mineral content is very high and the water warm.  we took snacks for a break to eat after soaking in the mineral pools and a good time was had by all--lots of great variety as far as a few little poos to move between--some little water falls that massage your back and an icy cold pool to cool off in--of course I did a lap or two and it warmed up in time. 

no these men weren't there I just got this off the computer--but look at that pool in the backgroud it changes your skin and swimsuit to an orange color --but then that rinses out..

got this off line too--shows the steam coming off the pool--there wasn't that much snow when we went though

good times

Mar is here

March is here and so is the feel of  a new start...a new fresh month--to accomplish--new projects. Build relationships with family and Friends.  Make less errors.  Enjoy more sunshine.  Attend the temple more.  Celebrate birthdays.  Take walks, Clean closets.  practice  a skill, enjoy a hobbie.
I for one am Looking forward to it.
Don't know why just feel like something great is around the corner. 

February and the snows still coming.

the typical deck view--I often take snow picture from here --like most all of 'em

snow still coming down  --twill make for some great water in the summer...time..so we should be grateful...as long as we all travel safely about.

hows about we all go together there sometime

dad and I have been joining with the eight wards in our stake and attending the temple in connection with their ward conferences.  We also do sealings with a sealing group once a month.  We'd like to go as a family to do a sealing group on a sat at the end of april or so and we'll get your imput on a day...much love dad and mom

what a nice surprise!

pretty huh?

I (Lynda) came home from work on Fri to find a beautiful vase of flowers from Bryan to me--it was a taste of spring right in my kitchen --now I am longing for spring..

we are very happy to have Bryan work at home

It has been a few years now since Bryan Started working  his job....in an office here at home.  I was leary at first but it has been a great blessing.  I like that he isn't out in the traffic.  I like that he gets to his job quickly in the morning by walking into the next room.  I'm glad when I come home from school and he is there waiting..(even though ) he is working.  Its nice not to come home to an empty house.  So even though we are 'empty nesters' as they call us--we still have each other.  Its like FHE every night--except when I'm at my religion class or he is off to give stake temple recommends.  So like I said in my title of the blog.  I am happy to have Bryan work from home--it brings peace of mind to me.  It only has a few drawbacks--we have to be quiet==not fun can start here till after 5pm
he has to make sure  He can account for his time spent while clocked in.  He often does not get to associate with other workers during the day. We don't often have visitors sleep over--cause they can't really make themselves to home with him working 4 ten hour days.. and having to be downstairs  for so long.  Overall its worked out much better than I ever dreamed it would.  Now I can't wait to go on a mission someday and be around Bryan all day every day.  Looking forward to the time that is a reality.
