Cheese-cracker monster

Cheese crackers all over the carpet. Mom doesn't like that. Who could be the culprit?

Could it be Noah? It's easy to blame someone while they're fast asleep. Let's keep looking.

More crackers in the entryway! Follow the trail......

This looks suspicious. Adam, are you the cheese-cracker monster?

One look says it all!

The cheese-cracker monster has struck for the last time! Or has he?

The Garden

The Garden

Green plants grow up everywhere

Flowering, shooting forth their fruits and vegetables.

A child's delight, a mother's satisfaction

of labor's rewards.

Tasting the goodness of God's creations

and seeing nature's beauty in her glory,

The legacy of the garden

has passed from my ancestors, to my parents,

to me, and most beautifully,

to my children.

One nation under GOD, indivisible

With liberty and justice for all!

With the ones we love

Greta and the babes

"Behold, my sons, I desire that ye should remember to keep the commandments of God; and I would that ye should declare unto the people these words. Behold, I have given unto you the names of [chosen men of God]; and this I have done that when you remember your names ye may remember them; and when ye remember them ye may remember their works; and when ye remember their works ye may know how that it is said, and also written, that they were good."

"Therefore, my sons, I would that ye should do that which is good, that it may be said of you, and also written, even as it has been said and written of them."

Helaman 5:6-7

Dad's 70th, John's 80th

Cutting the cake! Happy Birthday!

Me, Havin' a little bday cake

Adam finds some frosting

On Memorial Day weekend, my dad and his only sibling, John, celebrated their birthdays together by renting a cabin at Bear Lake and having a family party. In May, John turned 80 years young, and in July, my dad will turn 70 years young. John and Kathy live in Oregon, and we don't get to see them very often, so it was great to spend a day with them. John has always been a wonderful uncle to me, very thoughtful and caring, he's my favorite.
