Back surgery,

Knee surgery,

Breast Cancer,

Alzheimers,

Were just a few of the ailments mentioned at a party last night.

NOT FUN TO HEAR!

So, once again, as always,

I'm so grateful for our health!

Familysearch.org

I love family search.

It's a great repository for pictures, stories, certificates.

I have stacks of papers and pictures with no place to put them...

Until now.

I put them on family search.

Additionally, it's a great resource to find my relatives and to learn about them.

It's improved 150% since the days of our two missions.

I love it, and I am grateful.

Moments of Fun with Friends

We went to lunch yesterday with friends we have not seen for a few years...

Dave & Deon Ballard.

It was fun to see them and just share stories.

Friends are such a treasure.

And, I am grateful.

Moisture in the Desert

A desert needs rain.

But, lately it has been so dry.

So, when it snowed yesterday, that was a wonderful gift.

And, I am very grateful for the moisture....

Monday Morning

Busy at it already at 6:15 a.m.

Lots to do on my to-do-list.

And, I'm glad for Monday morning to have to do it!

Oh, yes, I'm a fan of early Monday mornings.

I'm very grateful for them.

Spring

The blossoms are budding out on trees.

The crocus peek up through the dirt....

Of course, these remind me each year of dear Margaret Emery, who sent them to me many years ago.  They last so short, but they are such a great reminder to me of a dear friend.

It's so beautiful.

And, I am grateful.

My Brother, Preston

He's such a good, good guy.

He calls, he corresponds, he cares.

He's a good one...I feel so blessed

And, I am grateful.
