This is One Amazing Woman!

I just had to take the opportunity to share my admiration for this sweet friend of mine! Her name is Shirlene. Her husband was our great Bishop in Gilbert while we lived there. They moved up to Utah just about the time we moved here. It has been so fun getting together with them the past few years. I was fortunate enough to have lunch with Shirlene today and I can't begin to tell you what a wonderful time we had. She is truly amazing! I am so overwhelmed with her positive attitude and her continued faith through out the past year.

Just after Chad had his cancer and was finishing his last week of radiation, I heard the news that Shirlene was diagnosed with breat cancer. Reflecting back on that week last year I now sit in amazment and gratitude for the tender mercies we've experienced over the past 12 months.

Visiting with Shirlene today helped me again reflect on what REALLY MATTERS! It's these moments when I long for my heavenly home more than ever.

I am grateful for a plan- and so grateful to know my own part in that plan. Thank you Shirlene, Chad and so many others who endure the "disease of love" that we so passionately call it.

There has been greater growth and reflection in the past 12 months then ever before in my life.

Thank you...for bringing it all into perspective!

I love you both!

Class of 89'

We went as a family to my 20th H.S. Class Reunion. It was lots of fun seeing all the old classmates but especially the girlfriends I have kept in touch with through the years. We went up to Poky on Thurs. and came home Sunday. It was such a great time! I enjoyed visiting and catching up with old friends and enjoyed time with my sister and her family as well. Lots of fun memories for sure!

Pirate Gramma Camp!

While I was away at Girls Camp this year, Grandma and Grandpa Morris came and took Porter, Ellerie and cousin Haley camping. This year the Gramma Camp theme was PIRATES!!! This is how the crew came home. They knew all sorts of pirate lingo, had lots of pirate booty and a super fun adventure to share! Thanks Gramma and Gramps for such a fun time!
