Sunday of Loved ones

Our daughter, L is going to England!Today was her "opportunity to speak on a gospel topic in Sacrament Meeting pryor to leaving on her mission" (farewell)

It was full of Friends (eating)

friends visiting

Baby E getting passed around and a happy Grandpa

and more friends from high school...

from church and the neighborhood...

and Moab (river)

and grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.

It was a great day that was long awaited, well prepared for (could have been better) and much anticipated. We baked and prepared for days, most of the week even and figured around 50 people would show up. There were 72 at one count and that didn't get them all. We ran out of plates first, breakfast casserolle next and forks next. Thank goodness we have peaches and apples on the tree and continued to cut up fruit. It was so fun to hear L speak along with her friend and past Young Women leader, Shannon and to see everyone enjoying themselves and to visit with our family and friends. It will be a busy week to get her all ready to fly out on Thursday.

Thanks to everyone who came and supported us today. It's a parents payday!

Parents Pay Day

This is all about Baby E Check out that tongue. She loves it.

Today (Sunday) was her Blessing day.
She looked beautiful and was perfectly behaved.
Do I look so happy with my little Grandbaby?

R and I made the dress. G'ma Cherri made the bracelet which I was going to get a close-up of but forgot it. It matched perfectly.

R loves the "matchy" family photos. Aren't they cute?

Here is baby E, my girl, R, Me and My mom with her new hairdo.

(no I didn't do it. She "bought" it) I like it.

Four generations!
It was a great day!
