Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous...

Last night Dave and I went to a BBQ at my boss' home. (Er, let's see, it wasn't a castle because it didn't have a mote, so yes, it was his "home.")It was actually very lovely. We had a wonderful time.


We especially had fun wearing our BYU Cougar shirts when everyone there was a Ute fan! It's just that BYU is ranked 11 in the nation, and we just played another shut-out game! We had to stir things up a little bit!

You're only as young as you feel?

Both Dave and I have been walking around like old folks: moaning and groaning every time we move. (Is this what we have to look forward to?)
While boating, I forgot that I'm not 25 any more, not 35, not even 45!! I decided to water ski. Easy and fun. I used to be fairly good.
Pulling my skis together used a muscle which didn't want to cooperate. This left me limping for the past two weeks now.
That's not all.
When we were bringing in the boat, Dave slipped on the moss on the ramp and crushed his ribs against the trailer.
We gave him a blessing and took him to the emergency room. We needed to make sure he didn't have a broken rib which could puncture his lung. He was in a lot of pain, and has been for these two weeks. Not fun!!
Turns out his ribs are only badly bruised, so that is good.

If you're only as young as you feel, why is it that I feel so young, but my body tells me differently?

Another Graduation!

Our son Rob graduated from BYU in Business Management, Magna Cum Laude! (top 5%)
We're so proud of him and his little family. They are trying to do what's right and live the kind of life the Lord wants them to.
Here are some fun pictures. (The angel-graduate is little Robbie. The dark-haired beauty is Julie, the proud wife/mother.)

Time into Eternity

Until time becomes eternity;
It's one moment in the dark.
It ebbs and flows with frailty
Until the Master makes His mark.

Then the brightness of truth pierces
The shadows of mortality,
Growing ever bright until
The daybreak of eternity.

Dave and I were sealed in the Jordan River Temple on Aug 19, 2008.
What a joy it was to have so many of our children and friends there!
Look at some of our beautiful posterity which bring us so much joy!
