ok so I still have some things to learn, my names for people were under their pictures but I so frustrated right now that I am leaving it the way itis #*%#@^

One of my favorite things about Utah are the sunrises over the mountains

Little Women



Alexis is in a group at school called "Spotlight Players". Last night we went to see their production of Little Women in which Lexi plays Beth. It was so good I even cried when Beth died. They brought her out in a wheelchair and she and Jo have a conversation about her dying. They sang a song called Some things are meant to Be. The they hugged each other and Lexi drops her arm and goes limp and Jo cries and hollers for Marnee. Lexi looked so adorable! She did a great job. Her big blue eyes were sparling in the lights. The girl who played Jo is Craig Christian's niece. The family lives in Sorena's ward. The father died last week so Celeste has been in rehearsals and grieving over her father. Isn't that sad!

Sunday



Sunday was our Sunday to have everyone over, we had so much fun. It was Stake Conf. for Belliston, Marbles, and us. Green's came later. I tried Danette's recipe for the Chicken Garlic Farelle(close enough). The adults and most of the children loved it! It is so yummy. Margot's dental office has a conference in Vegas and they are having a dance competition. She was showing us the dance and being so funny we laughed til we were crying and coughing. She would do a step and say now I do this, now I do that. She would complete a step and ask did that look stupid? The Greens brought Michael Yakkman(did I spell that correctly?) over, he is attending BYU. He played the guitar and sang to us. Jordan joined him as did the rest of us when we knew the words. The guys watched the SUPERBOWL. Needless to say they were disappointed with the outcome. Doesn't sound like a very reverent Sabbath does it? oops. Some random pictures

Glenn Beck

You may have already heard this but--last night when I was driving home from dance and listening to Glenn he said that he could imagine that we, his listeners, were probably feeling very frustrated about the countries woes and where we are going. He said that he was fortunate to have a job that gave him a voice that we might not have. Especially since our representatives do not listen to their constituency. He is giving us a chance to be part of changing America. This is big. What you do is sent a picture and an e-mail to wesurroundthem@gmail.com. He has 9 points of concern, they are on his web, I agree w/ all 9. They are things like God is the center of this country, the government works for me, I am in charge of raising my family (w/o government), etc. I wrote on my e-mail, I agree 9 out of 9 and sent it. I think the pictures are a way to indicate that these are concerned Americans and not made up. He will have a show around Feb. 27 that we can participate in either by going to NY or on the web. I think a trip would be fun because we could accidentally see Ryne. Just kidding about the trip. Please e-mail everyone and ask them to do this, we can change things!!

Dance


Saturday night we danced at Westminister College in SL. I rode up with a few of my friends. It was alot of fun. It is a really nice school. We have not danced for them before. After the dance we went to Olive Garden. I do not like eating that late but it sure tasted good. When we dropped Jane off at her apt. she fell on the ice. She appeared to be ok. She was laughing and I told her to stop because I couldn't help her if we were laughing. She also has a really bad shoulder. This is a picture of her and Jean and the school mascot.

Nicolas


Nicolas crawled through the doors on my fireplace screen and shut the doors after him. Cute huh! We haven't had a fire in it but it still is kinda dirty.

One of my favorite things in Az, besides my children and grandchildren are the sunsets. They are so fabulous! This was the night of Dad's birthday. We told him it was God's gift to him for his b-day
