Our last day in Carthiage Jail.
I think they really did enjoy it, even though it might not look like it.

Breann came to Iowa to vist Crystal, Curtis & Vance an so they came to Nauvoo to be with me.

So great to have some of my kids with me.

This is my young womens councilors Left Rachael Coakley & Amy Erickson

Just a great picture of the youth and the Temple.

What fun we had, they are all so crazy.

What a great looking bunch of girls.

This is just one of those picture perfect moments. They were taking a brake from throwing rocks into the lake.

This is at Massac Fort over in Metropolis IL. it was fun going thru the buildings.

I thought this was just such a sweet picture

We went out to the land between the lakes and had a really good time. A really nice Man offered to take our picture I was so happy.

Kelsie eating cheese puffs. What a sweet face.
Every Saturday night thru the summer we have a thing called downtown after dinner and they close down main street and people come and hangout and listen to bands play and people preform. This lady is there and she stands on a upside down pot perfectly still and acts like a statue. She is really good at it and people give her money, Kelsie liked her.

In one of the shops downtown I found a tutu an look at it very carefully and Holly and I made this for Kelsie she loved it.

Hi Mimi's tub is the best.

Holly just got out of the Temple so we took a picture with Joesph & Hyrum.

On this day Thirty one years ago I married my sweetheart. We have raised six wounderful children whom we are very thankful for an so proud of. On this day I would like to tell my Sweetheart how much I love him and even though there has been ups and downs I would do it all again. I am so looking forward to the next thirty one and many more. Thank you Sweetheart your Eternal Love LB

Mom & Terri

While we were in Arizona for the CF walk we had a chance to see family and go to dinner with my Mom and my sister Terri I don't think of her as an inlaw she is my Sister. You Can't make a trip to Show Low without a stop at the Queen. Aren't they the so cute We Love You Guys thanks for everything.Yes we are getting older but dang we look good.

CF Walk

As many of you know we have two daughters that have Cystic Fibrosis and every year for the last few years we have done a walk to help raise money for the research program. Ray and I try to go to it as much as we can. It has grown over the years and we have the good fortune of meeting lots of really great poeple. If you go to the link on this web site under Alethia & Joe you will see our Oklahoma kids at the CF walk in Oklahoma City. Because it is so hard for them to travel to Arizona they started this year to walk in Oklahoma we love that they support there sisters. After all Family is the only thing in life that is always there for each other. We hope and pray that all of you take the opportunity to spend time together as familys. Here are just a few of the pictures we took of the event. This is our family shirt.
