Wow, how do people find time to keep up with posts? I obviously don't. I sure do enjoy looking at others though. My sweet husband gave me a new notebook computer yesterday. He loves electronics and tries to help me be more tech savy. I'm grateful and excited for my gift.




So here is a quick update on what's been going on with us. June was filled with Lindsey's soccer tournament. The highlight was her final tournament in Eden. See Michelle's blog (We are a happy family) for some pictures of our trip. Taylor got his driver's license so now he can drive himself to summer school. He has also earned his Eagle Scout award. Scotty is enjoying a leisure and fun summer with his friends. Michelle is expecting our 3rd grandchild on my birthday in February. Natalie is living at Ron's office for now to get ahead financially. I am enjoying being a grandma to my darling grandson's.



Life is great. What an amazing learning opportunity. There are so many things to be grateful for. Sometimes I wonder, why me? As in why have I been so blessed. I find inspite of hard things there is much to be hopeful and happy about. I am especially grateful for my knowledge and understanding of Heavenly Father's plan for us, his children and for my relationships with family and friends

I love how your posts are always so uplifting. You have such a great positive and spiritual outlook on everything. I think it's great your husband buys you electronics. Christian is the same way.
