We are one month away from entering the MTC.  We have tried hard to stay busy with my work, watching grandchildren, doing genealogy (which Debbie can't seem to move ahead on her dad's mother's line) and reading the Book of Mormon (which I can do that).  If   the mission office called and said they need us tomorrow - we would go.  I would have to get a sub for my primary class - but we would definitely go! 

Debbie and her friends at work took a day off and took the front runner from Provo to downtown SLC to shop and they had a great time.  It was a little dangerous letting the Utah valley people mix with the "city" people but they had a great time as is evident by this picture:

 

Look who has the biggest shopping bag!  This was right before we met a man at the station that we thought would be a good match for someone - but then we learned more about him!  We deleted his picture!

 

 

Here is Terri Hagler saying, "I think we got in trouble".  In a minute, Shawna will tell her, "you are right".

 

 

I will miss all the people that I have come to love at work.  I know that I won't ever be able to return to work at BYU and I will miss the people I've come to know.

 

We also had Ellie's 8th birthday which meant BAPTISM!  It was a great day to be a part of.  Grandparents live for things like that.  Here is her adorable baptism picture: 

 

 

 

These snapshots are all of her and the pictures were taking at Utah Lake.  Her sign says "Choose" "The" "Right".

 

We also have been watch grandchildren and I have to post this picture of Eli riding his wiggle car down their driveway and then he turns going about 50 miles an hour!  It scares the living day lights out of you.  He does have his helmet and shoes on - but he is doing this in his "underwears".

 

We are so grateful to Andy, Cretia and the boys for letting us stay in their house.  They will get a 1 week reprieve - when we go to Cami's house next week to watch the kids for a few days.  I'll do a better job of taking pictures and getting the posted.
