SPRING

Guess it is time for me to update this blog and let you all know that we are well, however busy it has been.

We just returned from another trip to Ill. to see Grammy Rose and to bury Grammy Rice. She was 98 and died a little over a week ago. It was a small funeral and we had it at the grave site. Grammy Rose is doing fine, she seems to be happy enough at the place where she lives, she is in a study for a new drug for Alzh. and we will be keeping a watch out on how that goes. Bruce was able to get a few more things done for her estate, and things went very well. We are however glad to be home.

I did alot of work on the house today, some spring cleaning in fact, and it felt good to do it. I have taken some pictures and will post them here. It is a nice evening with the sun shinning and in the 40's. very pretty out there in fact. We are suppose to get some snow over night but I am not sure we will get it, maybe the MT's.

We had a great week a week ago with Marc and Stacie and kids here, they came in on Thrusday and stayed until Sat. which is the day we left for Ill. Stacie helped me a great deal on things, we painted a bedroom, and work out in my yard and got things planted and straightened up, and we changed my sewing room all around and it looks great. It was hard work but we had a good time doing it. The week went fast . Just like this week has gone fast, and now it is the weekend. Bruce and Chris are at a basket ball game this evening, so I am here by my self enjoying the quiet. This weekend is Genreal Conference and we are so looking forward to that. I enjoy General Conference so much, we get to listen to our leaders of our church and it is always great.

I think we will be home for awhile now, and looking forward to summer when my sister with her kids will be visiting us. We are also looking forward to meeting our newest grand baby in Aug. All in all we are so blessed .

Well, guess I will try to post those pictures I want on here, so until next time. Love you all

Chilly Afternoon

Well, it snowed again last night but not much on the ground this time. Meggan Beckham and I went up to Boise, Id to see Marc and Stacie and kids last week and they have nice weather up there, spring like, when we came home last Sat. it was nice here too and it has been very spring like here until today. Now they say it will be more winter like for the next 10 days, but after that we are looking at the middle of March and things should be looking and feeling more like spring.

I haven't been doing to much since returning home but have caught up on some house keeping and did a little bit of sewing. I made me a pair of flannel pants for lounging around in but I am not a good seamstress and they came out okay but not great. I put the belt on inside out... oh yah... but that is okay they are only going to be seen by me and Bruce and maybe the kids around here... this afternoon is a quiet one, Meggan and Beckham were here for a bit and then went home, she hasn't hung around this week like she was, whats up with that??? I think she is getting ready for her husband to come home on Sat. Bruce didn't make it home for lunch today, he is up state doing work. And Chris didn't make it here for lunch either, so needless to say it has been quiet around here, I am not use to that.....

All in all things are good here, just getting back in to routine. Grammy Rose is doing fine, she is setteled in her new "home" and seems to like it ok. She has her moments which she will , but for the most part she is doing well.

Well, thought I would just add a little note to say hi and that I am doing well and love ya all...
