Yahoo!!!!

I'm going to be a grandma again in February. Aaron and Cyndie are expecting. Of course, we would be tickled with a boy, but we have such cute little girls in our family, that would be great too. Just healthy and normal, that's all we will pray for. I'm so excited!!!!!

Wow. I'd forgotten.

I mowed my new lawn tonight! It's beautiful. My new lawnmower worked like a breeze and did a great job. I'd forgotten how fun it is to mow a lawn. Thanks again to my wonderful children for the new mower! Hugs and kisses. xxxxooooo

I got my rocks.

I finally got the rocks I left over at the old house and got them in place here. Actually, Kyle Chatterton brought them over for me cause I could only lift three of them. With a gift certificate from a friend, this little garden cost me about $5 is all and it looks nice. The grass is growing so good. This morning it is only 46 degrees so it feels pretty nice right now.

SAM!

IT'S SAM'S DAY! 25 YEARS OLD ON THE 25TH. HOW COOL. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE NEWEST MEMBER OF OUR FAMILY. WE LOVE YOU SAM!

FAMILY TIME

It was Myers family time this weekend. We had the reunion at Ron and Lorraine's house in Soda Springs. They have a huge, fun back yard and it was full of tents, trailers, 4-wheelers, a swimming pool, a trampoline, canopies for shade, lots of Washer Toss games laid out, and most important - lots of people. What a fun time. Ron and Lorraine were such great hosts. Paul and Elaine's entire family were there and it was wonderful to see them all. It's been so long since they've all been with us at a reunion. They have darling little grandchildren and great-grandchildren. From our immediate family there was me, Tom, Anneke, Anna, Abbie, Kate, Ammon, Makenna, Paige, Aaron, Cyndie, Kylee and Kaydence. I love it when all 7 of the granddaughters can be together and scream and laugh and play. Friday night, there was an outdoor movie on a big screen (Open Season) so we were bundled up in blankets and sleeping bags, and sitting on cozy chairs. They served drinks, popcorn and candy and it was great. Saturday the kids played in the pool while the Washer Toss Tournament went on. Ammon was in charge since he has won two years in a row. He and Aaron made the nicest bracket chart and ran it real well. Doug Weber won this year - BARELY! BECAUSE HE HAD TO PLAY AARON FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP!!! Doug was all warmed up because he had just played a game or two and Aaron hadn't played for a while, so I'm sure that's what made the difference. :) Congratulations to Doug and hurray for Aaron for taking 2nd place.

The best thing in the world for me to know is that I have a family. I love my parents and siblings and their children and grandchildren, and most of all my own precious children and spouses and the darling "Sweet Seven". We missed Andrea and Brad, who were in California, and Amy and Sam, who were in Virginia Beach, and Andy who was in Salt Lake. We missed you guys and love you!

Happy Birthday, Aaron!

Here's the birthday boy (in the middle) with his cousin, Glen Sanders, and the love of his life, Cyndie. Today Aaron is 30 years old. The big 3-0. Wow. I love that Aaron loves his family so much and likes to be around us all. He's lots of fun to be around too. He has amazed me with his willpower to overcome some addictions and to be more in control. He would do anything for anyone and he has a kind heart. He knows how to love the unlovable and that's a real talent and gift. He's a good husband and father and a good provider for his family. He has always had a mind of his own, though, and I remember when he got mad at his teacher in 3rd grade because she put his name on the board for talking and he wasn't talking. It seemed so unfair to him, he decided he wasn't sticking around for anymore injustice and he walked home. All the way to Franklin from Preston. Not only that, but he walked on the back roads and that was even longer. He even stopped along the way and sat in the gutter and ate his lunch. During all that time he was walking, everyone at the school and me and his dad were frantically looking for him. We decided that it was time to get the police looking too, so I came home to Franklin to bring the other kids home, and there he was- sitting on the floor in front of the t.v. watching cartoons. He was oblivious to all the commotion he had caused, not to mention scaring us to death. I didn't know whether to spank him or kiss him, so I just stood there and bawled. Hans was a little more loving than I was about the whole thing. Aaron used to love to go on the "egg route" with his dad up through Soda Springs and Lava because he loved taking a lunch somewhere. But sometimes he would have his lunch eaten by the time they left Franklin. Aaron I love you. Thank you for all the love you give me. Happy Birthday.
