I'm afraid facebook has won out over blogging. I just don't have time to do both and loading pictures etc on face book is much less time consuming so check us out there and thanks again for staying in touch!Juliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00838051463045668856noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674370154971824290.post-36126941442915122202012-10-26T12:28:00.003-07:002012-10-26T12:28:58.068-07:00Happy Birthday Meghan!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Today is Meghan's birthday. She would be 28! It's hard to believe I could have a child that old! We visited her grave this morning and put some fall flowers there amid the snow...yes, snow in October!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She would have loved it and thought it the best birthday present ever!</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I know it's been quite a while since I have posted. Being on face book seems a little easier to keep up with. I feel bad for any of you who faithfully keep checking for updates on here though so here are the happenings in our household.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Austin is doing awesome on his mission to Hong Kong China. He has been out for almost 9 months. He is currently serving in Tsing Yi which is a little island off of Hong Kong. His e-mails home every week are amazing as we see the growth in him.</span></div>

This cute little thing is turning 2 in November and I love every minute I get to spend with her. She loves her Grandma and we have lots of fun spoiling her. She is learning so fast that I can't keep up with her. </div>

Part of our summer vacation time was spent with Heather and Clint as we did the Church History tour from Nauvoo to Winter Quarters and everything in between. They are expecting their first child on December 4th. Grandchild number two for us...another little girl!</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I keep busy with my work at ADZ-N-ENZ, teaching Gospel Doctrine and chairing the indexing work for our Ward. Throw in a daily workout at the gym and a little card making now and then and weekly temple going with my good friend Libby and that about sums up my life.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Steve has just finished a year long job in Las Vegas ( I for one, am glad to have him home!).</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We are hoping he finds something close to home soon!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">And there you go...all caught up with the goings on in our lives.</span>Juliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00838051463045668856noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674370154971824290.post-50659814492527243002012-04-26T16:28:00.000-07:002012-04-26T16:28:38.122-07:00Spring has Sprung!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Steve always flies out to Vegas on Mondays on the 8:30 am flight and usually when I am dropping him off we see bus loads of missionaries being dropped off, too. We knew that the chances of Steve seeing Austin were pretty good and sure enough, they found each other.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim_JLpoXan60Q1yr_2LaEbG326R6oCwxFj9wC9xAYKL_65yDozXWRG31Mbe4Ed0Yeu2hncpTlm5NlNS1XGAmt_dJhKzlE-moKjMGLaQJH7kmVzwrgR3XjarHZHtuCA_sZrOnkphRiKzlq8/s1600/photo.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim_JLpoXan60Q1yr_2LaEbG326R6oCwxFj9wC9xAYKL_65yDozXWRG31Mbe4Ed0Yeu2hncpTlm5NlNS1XGAmt_dJhKzlE-moKjMGLaQJH7kmVzwrgR3XjarHZHtuCA_sZrOnkphRiKzlq8/s320/photo.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5727278943047503394" /></a>Austin looks great! He was so surprised to see his Dad. Steve gave him his cell phone to use to call me.

They had met up with a woman and her little son who were going all the way to Hong Kong with them. She was a member of the Church, too so she had taken them under her wing which they all thought was great! They also talked to a Catholic man on the plane from SLC to LA and asked him to read the Book of Mormon.

He will be an awesome missionary. The people of Hong Kong will love him as he will grow to love them. I have no doubt about that! We had an open house on the 15th . It was so crazy I didn't have time to get pictures - about 75 people were in and out during the day.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDlOvsZF6lgLsr0UARxGEAN6fiRlz-ys-19CB5ikUL7x76lDXiB7WL2GE4A4T8SUomRxGhNjl5mvUKJfW6JeAJo-kKB2W8pw_heNemEESpa8VWA__4EVx9eOZvL3Hbxzt_EzYk1HiQ6yAH/s1600/DSCN3857.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDlOvsZF6lgLsr0UARxGEAN6fiRlz-ys-19CB5ikUL7x76lDXiB7WL2GE4A4T8SUomRxGhNjl5mvUKJfW6JeAJo-kKB2W8pw_heNemEESpa8VWA__4EVx9eOZvL3Hbxzt_EzYk1HiQ6yAH/s320/DSCN3857.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5700138268516043474" /></a>Had to get a picture of Austin with this guy though.

That said, it was a wonderful, relaxing Christmas at our house this year. A bit lacking without Heather and Clint here but we did get to Skype with them!<div>Steve and I didn't do much for each other this year- we mostly concentrated on Getting everything Austin needs for his mission. Probably not the funnest Christmas for Austin since almost everything he opened was for his mission but he was a good sport about it and even acted like getting sheets for Christmas was awesome! </div><div>We opened presents, then went to a wonderful sacrament meeting full of music. There was such a powerful spirit there. What a wonderful way to begin Christmas Day!</div><div>Kyle, Han and Jane came around noon and we opened more presents while Skyping with Heather and Clint.</div><div>Steve's parents and brother joined us for Christmas dinner.</div><div>Jane loved playing with her new toys- she kept us all pretty entertained. What a cutie she is!</div><div>The best part of any Holiday is being able to celebrate it with family!</div><div> And now, life is about to change greatly for us as Austin leaves in 3 weeks for his mission!</div>Juliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00838051463045668856noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674370154971824290.post-81827988233222300922011-12-10T14:27:00.001-08:002011-12-10T14:53:06.520-08:00UP House!So, you know the movie "UP".

Steve took this picture of her laughing at her Grandma.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWb5aQJr9_twpAagMPGDQ3OlPaJPE8yF-608btvy3furVyJjijSgVTs6c29Q6NKAoqrYSWrPuYtYZp5_12Fmm3CDgwKidNb9oRRKLHVmOfNZYwP85umWCMriFAQwLg_jEqgFSDWA1W_mCT/s1600/DSCN3806.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWb5aQJr9_twpAagMPGDQ3OlPaJPE8yF-608btvy3furVyJjijSgVTs6c29Q6NKAoqrYSWrPuYtYZp5_12Fmm3CDgwKidNb9oRRKLHVmOfNZYwP85umWCMriFAQwLg_jEqgFSDWA1W_mCT/s320/DSCN3806.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5643411410571928978" /></a>What a cutie!

It was so fun to have her home and to spend time with her. I didn't get a whole lot of pictures taken but she did so you will have to see her blog. She was able to visit with quite a few of her friends while here and we filled the rest of her time with shopping, playing games, visiting with family, eating (Red Mango, Sweet Tooth Fairy, Zuppas!!) at places Iowa doesn't have, swimming at the pool, more game playing and just plain hanging together.</div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3S9DTxP6e9SuwS0kPzZmhlwCrkZw_G1qiww0y5zJCSA_4XaL51fKqTxjDDMGkIvjKIoZLY_7lj9gtsirBZXjCqm1mjlO6I753av4Q8w2nVtJ2NYo6peGHs1lXCprIV00Exyaw5aKdFIIh/s1600/DSCN3805.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZOmE4OcbsdkH1gpkfmUoHtXtcRXqX2frLS0GWxl5t-RCmlWepVVRttn7KFXUNAbekpBNlQGBVZ9N-5gCweCwCE47_CwK8U1FMWdeCyrqlEHromHheVe7a2LddHcel2Yu_MdSLbiutJoVO/s1600/DSCN3804.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZOmE4OcbsdkH1gpkfmUoHtXtcRXqX2frLS0GWxl5t-RCmlWepVVRttn7KFXUNAbekpBNlQGBVZ9N-5gCweCwCE47_CwK8U1FMWdeCyrqlEHromHheVe7a2LddHcel2Yu_MdSLbiutJoVO/s320/DSCN3804.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5630403962886320370" /></a>On Thursday we met up with my sister Holly and her daughter Rachel at Thanksgiving Point. We went to see the movie "17 Miracles" which we all highly recommend to everyone. Be sure to bring kleenex though! We ate dinner after and enjoyed visiting and catching up.

I find that everything I do with Austin is that way, because he is the last. For the past 22 years my life has centered around school, PTA, homework, school projects, soccer, dance, piano, basketball, track, cross country, swimming etc. All of that comes to an end on Thursday and before I know it, Austin will be gone on his mission. Besides Steve, my children have been everything to me and letting the last one go is harder than I thought but let him go I will as he soars onward and upward, just as the others have done while we who are left below wonder what to do with this empty nest. We may be sad for a time, but don't worry, we'll think of something to do ;) (wink, wink)!Juliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00838051463045668856noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674370154971824290.post-88759545756604415702011-05-06T12:58:00.000-07:002011-05-06T13:05:34.090-07:00Remembering Meghan...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcTl1n8faCmcLAjd9BUr7-Nlpkrw3s3lrwVzEbM8bxXIMRb5ggp4PykxbdJEYGE7y7IGVYm2IlsAGogd55LcQ89qilB7msrbpnjej_XoOF4yFsHE1_2F3UIsDlPxY7FakP4jFCDH7RGka8/s1600/scan0003.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 245px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcTl1n8faCmcLAjd9BUr7-Nlpkrw3s3lrwVzEbM8bxXIMRb5ggp4PykxbdJEYGE7y7IGVYm2IlsAGogd55LcQ89qilB7msrbpnjej_XoOF4yFsHE1_2F3UIsDlPxY7FakP4jFCDH7RGka8/s320/scan0003.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603695275265632546" /></a>It has been 6 years tomorrow since we said good bye (for now) to our daughter, Meghan.
