It is Offical...

So much this past month....Moved Chrissy to Kansas City.... What a pretty place. Loved it!! Went out a few weeks ago to help her move and set up house. She came back with my till the 7th of  May. That is going to be a sad day for all of us....
Nic got married and moved into his own place... He only lives a few block's from Momma. so that is a blessing. Into Chrissy's old house...
Taylor got a full time job for the summer and will continue with school next year!! He is home again and we are enjoying him.
I took employment this week with a great  Mortgage Company in Utah County. I am very excited for my first day of work. It has been a few years and going back into loan processing ..will be like learning the biz  all over again but challenging and fun.
Ken is working up in Salt Lake still and all is well there....He is such a blessing in my life... I love that Man!!!
Grand kids are moving and this is going to be so hard on all of us. Me going back to work after the kids leave is going to be my saving grace. 
I am excited for all of our new journeys in life and hope our choices bring us all happiness and peace.. After all the tears!!:(
I will have to write more on meeting my new Uncle and Aunt in the next few days and post some pics....
Love to all. Is it not just a Wonderful World????
I love the song by Luey Armstrong...What a Wonderful World. You should listen to it a oldie but a super duper goodie!!!

Family



So I have been doing allot of Family History Research as of late. It has been really surprising what I find at each turn in the page. Last month I found my Dad's half brother. It was a wonderful time for all of us. He is going to come out and see the family soon. I cannot tell you what a emotional and wonderful thing this has been. My dad lost his sister last month and we found a brother. God's timing and hand in all things leaves me sometimes so grateful to have him in my life and to know that he loves and helps us all.

This week I found a bible in Arkansas that is over 200 years old. Sitting in a museum. My wonderful ancestors founded a town and helped in building and settling a area of Arkansas. I have found countless kin on ancestry.com.

I found this picture in a photo book. So even though it means nothing to anyone. It makes me smile and puts names to faces of my long lost ancestors I am trying to find and make a great history book for my Uncle when he arrives the end of the month.

It's been so long...




I cannot believe it.... I was blogging everyday it seemed like...then..nothing! Wow. I really need to get back to blogging. I read a few post over the past few months of others... but I guess i had nothing to give. Well here it goes.


I have had such a great month. Yes it is my Birthday Month. and when I say Birthday Month! I really mean the whole month!:) I figure that my mom was pregnant for 9 months. Why can't I just own the whole month. Really you should all try it. The upside is that if your husband is slow to make sure he takes care of you on your day...He has the whole flippin month to get it right. Mine never forgets cause really how do you forget a whole month. A week or a day maybe but really no man could forget a whole month. lol .... It may sound bratty, selfish, and kind of straight right over bearing but really who are we talking about. Mother Teresa or Sally Young. lol...Just kidding.


The month started out slow... by the 5th it was rolling pretty good. Saturday was the best. Fun time with the family. We hung out all day and Ken took everyone to dinner that night. Grand kids spent the night and we watch a movie and played games. Grand kids are the best present ever!!!! We always make a trip to St George during my Birthday month....Getting ready to finish planning that too. Such a fun time when you go to the SUN when it is SNOWING HERE! I am so thankful for my Hubby that goes along with all of this! :)


I have been doing allot of genealogy..... tracing my family roots. This past month I started to spend more time searching. I found like a gold mine of info in the past week. But the best thing I found was not a family member of old.....BUT a family member of NEW! Yep found my Dad's Brother. I cannot even begin to tell you how awesome this has been. What a blessing! He is going to come out and meet us soon. My Dad is turning 75 in a few weeks.... and ya knowi I think he is going to have a better Birthday Week then I am all Month! I am so happy for my Famly. Heavenly Father really has blessed us!


Well I am trying to be faithful on posting and putting up more 's this year.




Write more tomorrow.:)
