Another Lovely Day

Saturday October 18, 2008

It seems that when I got on my blog it wasn't set up so I must have done something that made it go away. I love to read Heather and Val's blog it makes me so jealous. I will try and do as good as you guys. However, I always start these very late at night and it is now 10:46 p.m.

It has been a crazy weekend. Friday morning at about 12:55 a.m. we got a phone call from my mothers house. She fell and hit her head on her tile floor. She has a big goose egg. She was hurting pretty bad and because she takes cumadin (sp) her blood is really thin. She was taking away in an ambulance and taken to Jordan Valley Hospital. by 4:00 a.m. she was ok and sent home. She stayed with us Thursday and Friday night. She is full of bruises and very sore but we are very thank ful that she is still with us. Bill says she has more lives than a cat.

Bill and I are very happy. We are trying to get our back yard finished. It is very hard work and we can tell that we are getting very old. We can't do as much as we used to. We are of course excited to add number 13 to our list of grandchildren. Heather and Ben are very creative in announcing the new arrival. Gabe and Val were pretty creative with the movie announcement with Emma I think it was. Two new grandchildren!!! How blessed can we be.

Michael tried out to sing the national anthem at the Jazz game and he was on the news as one of the contestants. I didn't see him but heard him singing. Bill was laughing and ran downstairs to tell me Michael was on the news. We don't know yet if he made it.

Melanie is looking pretty pregnant and will probably have her baby around the 19th of December.

Julia is same old same old. She has Fridays off until the end of the year and so she takes paratransit to the temple. They are so helpful with her and she stays all day.

You know about Gabe and Val and Ben and Heather from their blogs.

Annie and Chris and still trying to find a house and the kids are doing very well in school.

I will try and learn all I can to make this blog the best it can be. I'm sure I will never reach the level of Val and Heather but I will try. Right now my patience is ok. Hopefully I won't lose this one. It is weird that I lost it because Heather even made a comment on my last one.
