Josh and Savannah on the Salmon. It was so fun being there with Grandkids and Kids!! Best time ever!

This is the picture of our family river trip. I don't know what to say about it, but that it was a taste of Heaven for me. I had all of my kids but one family and all of my grandkids but one. I did get C.B. who represented Jesse's family really well. How can I describe it. Beautiful days, lots of family and love, good food, time to talk, time to soak in the beauty of our world,talks at night in the tent with Coleman, Hailey's delightful laugh and scream, hugs from Addy and Emmi, help from Jerimiah and Joseph, Kiya and Elizy water fights, ,Strattys shy cute smile, Savannahs pure delight and lack of fear, water fights, stars at night so beautiful I couldn't bear to close my tired eyes, no electronics, no phones, no news, time to think!Can you tell it was one of y favorite vacations ever!

I put this video called Jessica's daily affirmation. I loved it. I kept thinking if we adults could start the day with the same attitude (maybe our likes would be different) but with the same attitude we would all be a lot happier. You can learn a lot from the actions of children. I love them!!!

Disney Land with Hailey and Chandler. It is my favorite vacation spot, but only if my kids and grandkids are there, then the river. Of course I have never been to Hawaii.

This weekend I took my mom and Kiya to the tulip festival. It was amazingly beautiful. I had never been to the gardens at Thanksgiving Point before. The cutest thing about the whole thing was how much my Mom enjoyed it. It was my sister Carol's idea and probably the best idea in a long time. I had mom in a wheelchair so her back wouldn't hurt as we walked all over. It made her love the day. The best thing about the whole experience is that she remembered she had done it the next day. I think my time with my mother is precious and limited. I need to plan fun activities for her to do!
