HAPPY ANNIVERSARY ELLEN & RUSS

Today is Russ & Ellen's 30th Wedding Anniversary. Congratulations!! Hope you both have a wonderful day and many more. The weather today is just as nice as it was 30 years ago. They were married in the Salt Lake Temple. Russ's parents hosted a wedding breakfast at the Lion house and then we held a reception at the Jordanelle that evening.

We Went to Sanpete County Yesterday.

Dad and I went to Sanpete County to visit my brothers and to check out the farm and the beautiful fall leaves. I think the leaves were at their peak. Click on the pictures to get a closer view. This is a view of the farm as you drive up the road, notice that the farm is almost all sagebrush.

There is an Alpaca farm between Moroni and Fountain Green. They are a cross between a sheep and a llama. My brother Bert told me that some of them are really valuable. They shear them just like they shear sheep.
This is Buckskin Hill


This is a view of just above the farm.

This is the Moroni Cemetery. Bert does a real good job of taking care of it. They told him that this is the best it has looked for 20 years. This view is right by my Mom & Dad's burial spot looking toward the West Mountain.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAULA !!!!!!!







Dad & I want to wish you a very happy birthday today, and many more. We will be so glad when you move back down here and we can spend your birthdays with you. Here are a few pictures that I found for your birthday. As you can tell I have been reminiscing as I looked at a lot of the pictures that I have in a box.

Our Greatgrandson Luke came to visit

We were happy to have company for dinner on Sunday evening. Brandon, Camille and Luke, Tyler & his friend Brian. Daniel and Jessi were here visiting for the Labor Day weekend and so Grandpa and I were happy to have them all for dinner. I got to hold sweet little Luke for quite a long time. He was happy on my lap if I held him so he could see his Mom & Dad. Here is Luke in the back of Brandon and Camille's new car.

He is especially fond of his mother. What a cute smile and laugh he has.



Here is another picture of their new car as they were driving out of the driveway to go home. Luke, of course was strapped in his car seat in the back seat :)
