IT'S MY SISTERS BIRTHDAYS!


Most people don't know I have 2 sisters, just a million brothers! Well, I do, Sherry and Denise. Today's Sherry's birthday and tomarrow's Denise's. They're one year and one day apart! They are both amazing! Have a great day sisters. I love you!!!! That's Denise on the left, Sherry on the right and me out front!

Here's what the All Girls Dance costume looks like



Last Tuesday I whipped this one up so I could show you what the costume will look like. I think I've made about 10 of these so far and helped with 20 or more others!!!! I could do them in my sleep. All over our stake people have been ambitiously working on these!!! We have helpers who are so anxious and excited for this dance program. Even though, at times the words "Dance Festival" seem to strike terror in our eyes, when it's over we'll all be so glad we were involved.

Dance Festival




Once again I find myself involved in a dance festival! When I was young my sisters got to be in one, but I wasn't old enough. Just before I had Jesse I got to help put one on in the Tacoma Dome, September of 1989, celebrating the 100 year anniversary of Washington State. Now, Our Stake has been invited to be involved in another one ~taking place in the Tacoma Dome July 24th~ and I'm helping. Getting the costumes done has been a huge thing. In a minute I'm off to another sewing session in Aberdeen. Allot of people have been wonderful, helping in allot of different ways. The youth are exceptional! Kay Lynn Larsen is in charge ~she's amazing~ It's all allot of work, we'll be glad when it's over, we'll also be glad we were involved!!!!!

We're Lost!

We don't have T.V. (by choice) so we don't know about these ongoing dramas. Well, our daughter Nicole, introduced us to Lost and lent us the first season ~needless to say~ We're HOOKED!!! The nice thing about having it on DVD is that you don't have to wait a week, you can just stay up all night and watch the whole season.............

We got Home safely!!

Wow! That went a little too fast! We had an amazing time. Anthon & Jennie graciously allowed us to stay in their home. We also had lots of company ~ Sis & family ~ Nin & family. We went swimming, saw "Horton hears a Who", visited a few parks, and took many walks with the grandkiddies!!! Arlin & Anthon built a beautiful craft table for Jen. Arlin,Lynsie,Meg & I got to go to the Sat. a.m. session of conferance @ the conferance center and then we went to the Joseph Smith movie. I'm working on getting pictures on here!!!! It was hard to leave!!!!!!
