Prom for N

LEAP YEAR DAY ? February 29th

Glad I wasn't born today or I would be young and foolish.....

Officially applied to change my Facebook name from Sparky Smith to my real name.

Happy Spring.....I am hoping.

Winter Time .....I am not complainin'

Almost Valentines day!  We are enjoying the mild winter.  Made one snowman.  Kids back in school and fun to have T & Kyle here to visit often!

K got a job here in Pleasant View and is waiting to hear from BYU.  We think he will either head to Provo or back to school in Logan when he gets the $$ to fun the school adventure.

N is a Sr. and we are not sure what lies ahead for him.  He is making some great progress and maturing.  Turned 18 at the first of the year, but we are thinking he will always be our Youngest!

C is a busy talented Young Lady.  Terrific at everything she puts her heart into, lately it is Volleyball.  She is a great example of Kindness.

S-me.  On my third reading of the BOM in less than a year.  Being in YW does that.  Happy to be home and enjoying the blessing we have.  I thank the Lord every day for my wonderful Husband and Kids.  I feel very blessed.  Life is great!

We are enjoying our Toads passes and Lazer Taggin' is great fun.  Grandma K rides the go cart in January 2012 :0)



Happy Heart Day to YOU ALL!!!!!!!

Wonderful Christmas!

Not white but a Wonderful Christmas.  D in a Shoulder Sling and enjoying the recliner after surgery on the 22nd.  S didn't have to worry about getting packages to Ukraine in time or what to send that may not arrive.  Having K here was an extra bonus for us.  N is just a kid at Christmas and very easily satistified with the simple things.  Family get togethers are the highlight of the season.  We are so blessed with wonderful Family.  Looking forward to a Happy New Year.

Monday October 7th

It feels like Winter!

We had a great Fall Break in Bryce Canyon and the Slot Canyons.  We read about Butch Cassidy and even saw his boyhood home in Circleville.  We read about his life and happenings.  We stopped at Cove Fort.  This was the first trip having the whole family there.  What a treat!

The Pumpkin carve was a great time.  Good food, family, friends, and roasted pumpkins seeds.

Halloween brought out the Cowgirl in C and N was Vector from "Dispicable Me".

We are now in slow...Motion with D recovering from Back Surgery on the 3rd.  The Dr.'s Nurses etc and McKay Dee hospital is just, Outstanding!  We are so blessed to have modern advancements, technology and procedures.

We are so very GRATEFUL !

I love the smell of Rain.....

Today is rainy, but a welcome cool.  The conference weekend and my 47th Birthday was fabulous.  We went "streakin" at Hyrum Dam.  It was awesome weather and awesome company.  Most people hate birthdays...I don't mind them, just another reason to Party..
