I did it!

Well, I finally got around to changing the background on my blog. Yay me....

Memorial day was yesterday. Chelsea and Stuart surprised us by coming from Rexburg. It was great to see them. Alex and Jon came over as well. We played Rock Band for awhile and then we did some "skype" with Cassie, Scott and Riley. It was so awesome. Katie wasn't here and we missed her. I really enjoy it when my whole family gets together. We like to play together. And it really leaves a hole when one is missing. Anyway, on the skype I actually got to hear Riley call me "mama" that is short for grandma. :) I was so excited. I sure love that little girl. She is awesome. And I can't wait until my two baby boys are here.
Katie was on a choir trip. After we did the skype, we went to the park and played 500 and then we played kick ball. We kept saying how we wished Katie were here. It was pretty scary to see Vern coming around third base right at me as I tried to stop him from making it home. I can't believe Vern and I even tried. Sometimes we forget that we just can't move like we use to. After playing games in the park (oh and climbing a few trees to get the balls down - well Taylor and Jon and Stuart climbed the trees. I just stood below and prayed. :( ) We went to a movie. It was a great day. I missed those who weren't here. Cherished the time I got to speak with them. Gave thanks for modern technology. And sighed a great breath of "oh how I love my family....." I look forward to the coming weekend. Katie is just about to graduate on the 4th of June and we will do it all again. :) Yay Katie and Yay family.....
