There are many things I haven't learned how to do yet.   One of those is how to get the pix and the text to go where I want them (layout) on the blog, so sorry for discombobulation.   Another is how to chop onions. . . the gross pix is for Bryce and Gage, but this thumb would have driven the vampires wild.  The pix of snow are from out my back door this morning, it is really pretty.  And then the history lessons.  Steven and Lorraine posed in front of our home in Heber City after a snow in late December 1979.  Steven even helped push a bit. Isn't Lorraine a sweet little angel!  And then, Steven's first Christmas and first encounter with the bearded one. Then there is December 2003 in LAS VEGAS snow, and Bryce's first snowman.  And then there is Gage at just a month, enjoying the Christmas Tree.  Hope everyone is enjoying the Season!

That time of year

                   We went to Park City, Montana for the occasion of Weston Reed Witt's blessing.   It was a wonderful weekend.  Here are some of the pictures.  When Macy was blessed, Brooke sat in this chair and held Macy, and now, two years later and much more grown up, Brooke is holding Weston on his special day. (see pix of Macy and Brooke in 2007- Macy is still just a DOLL!, check Witt's Wisdom blog!)   Weston really enjoyed the day with all the fuss and action.  Dinner at the Grandchildren table was great fun, Lindsay kept us all fed very well - (THANKS LINDSAY AND STEVEN!) 

                     Brooke by the Savior, all ready for Church.

                                                             This year we compromised on a tree, I didn't want one, Kim did, so that meant small.  Kim rode the fourwheeler around our property until he found the "right" little sweet tree, and here it is.  It's perfect!    Merry Christmas
And this is all of our grandchildren  on November 28, 2009(that we know about. . .)  It is nearly impossible to get all five to look the same direction and smile in unison, but here is our attempt.  We love them SO SO SO MUCH!

Broadway comes to the sticks

My younger sister came to visit us, we went to the Lion King in Spokane.   It was a great show, very very exciting.  We sure enjoyed Cindy.  We couldn't get to Smokey for the traditional pix because there was a rockslide on the road, but she said she will come next summer.   HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

Weston getting acclimated to earth life






I got to visit Steven & Lindsay's family, what FUN.  Weston is very welcome there, and he is so sweet.  Macy took him for a ride in her baby stroller, he met RED, the kids got to trick or treat, so much going on, what a busy sweet family.  Thanks for letting me share time with you.The pictures cannot do justice to the real thing, and the video seems to cut off on right side, sorry.  

I then went on to Las Vegas and Todd & Heather entertained (!) me. . . . their new home is very nice, full of a great feeling.   The weather was wonderful, too. I didn't take any pictures.  Thanks for the fun, Moultons.

He's here!


Lindsay & Steven and Gage and Macy welcomed Weston Reed Witt into their family on Saturday morning.  All is well!  Handsome little guy with a great head of hair, and very very loved!  Can't wait to meet him!  Thanks, Montana Witts!

Reviewing Summer Fun


This was to die for, Macy "crashed" into Gage, watch the slight thump, and see her glance over her shoulder as she drives on, Gage on driveway in twist of metal.  Had to stop filming to rescue him... aren't grandchildren the BEST!

We've been here a year....


 We arrived a year ago last September, here are a few pix from the year's highlights.  I didn't put a fresh four wheeler pix because my leg and ankle are still recuperating, but all is well that ends well.  Its been a good year, and as we head into another Autumn, we are excited to listen to General Conference and enjoy the autumn leaves.

It has been a nice summer, even in 90's, but Fall has arrived, leaves are turning, and even a frost 2 nites ago.
This is dad's other activity, making friends of the mole catchers...

New Attraction for Visitors








Yesterday Mom caved to my whining and let "us" get another ATV. I wore out Craig's List and found a very low mile 2009 Suzuki 400 KingQuad with a plow and winch. (more to the story).



Today we took it for the maiden voyage. We went to 4 stores last night and no one had helmets. So we dug out the old Ski Doo Helmet from our Blind Date where it all started. Funny thing, it wasn't as romantic this time. She didn't have to cling on to me for dear life. This time she had to cling on to the side of the mountain.
