A New Baby!

Well Michael and Angie finally got their new addition to their family this afternoon! Brigham weighed in at 6 lbs. 2 0z. And he is a blondie. They are very excited as are their other 7 kids. I can hardly wait to be able to hold him, Michael called and let me listen as they were checking him out and his tiny cry brought tears to my eyes. He sounded so sweet and angelic. We will all be able to be together as a family again soon!

We are so HAPPY for Matt and Brianna...

Yesterday was such a special day for all of us. We were so thrilled that Matt and Brianna were able to be sealed to each other and also to Jack. They have waited so long for this day, Brianna was worried that she wouldn't get to this day, sort of. But they are now a Forever Family!!! They have such a sweet and beautiful family. Oh and of course Jack stole the hearts of everyone there!!! He was such a cutie in his little white Tux!

More about my Book Club...

Well I don't think I am going to finish reading by my original goal of May 10th. We have had a lot of things going on this past month, although I am almost half way through it. So I am setting a new goal to be finish by the end of May. So if anyone is reading the book "The Secret Life of Bees" I hope you are patient with me. I hope that someone will be ready to share their thoughts on this book with me then. Then the next book I have been thinking that I would like to read next is a mystery by Mary Higgins Clark titled "Daddy's Little Girl" if anyone thinks this would be a good one too, please let me know what you think.

This is Awesome!

I am so proud of my granddaughter Lexi! She is in 2nd grade and she wrote a personal narrative essay. Her teacher entered it in a contest that the school district held and she won 1st place for the 2nd grade! This is awesome because there were 72,000 entrys and less than 100 winners. They published all of the winners writings in a book and gave each of them a copy of the book, a ribbon and a certificate. So now she can say that she is a published author! We love you Lexi!
