Rigby makes our 22nd grandchild. Is there any thing greaterthan to be with a baby who has just come from Heavenly Father.
I am afraid I just loved to hold him, so I made a pig of myself.

Our trip to Calif. was a good resting time for us. Al and I needed a time out and what better way than to see our family. We always enjoy seeing them but this time it was special, we had a new one to welcome into the family. We went to help Joddy out and I hope we did. We love watching the kids doing their thing. Each time we go they are bigger, which means new experiences for us. All in all we had a great time.

Boy it has really been a long time since I put anything on this blog. I will try to hit the high spots.
In June ( I think) we went to St George to Allie's graduation. I still cannot believe she is so old. Time really passes by and we don't pay attention. While we were there we had the opportunity to go through the Temple with Crosby. That was a great experience for us all. It was a great family time, which we always love.
On July 7th Marcus, our great grandson had open heart surgery. They had to remove part of a tumor that is in his heart. He has had it since he was born. We were all hoping that it would not get bigger, but our hopes were dashed when 2 years later they found it had grown up one of the arteries in the heart. He went through the the surgery just fine, but it made his heart beat irregular so they ended up putting a pacemaker in. After two weeks he is home and doing fine. We are very thankful to our Father In Heaven for letting Marcus stay with us longer. He still has his tumor so we have not idea what will happen next. We take a day at a time,
Aimee Jo was off the first week of the hospital stay and then had to go back to work. We spoke up and told them we would take Paige, our granddaughter and Destiny, our great granddaughter. Paige is 8 years old and was no problem at all, but even with Haylee here Destiny wore us out. She is a year old. An ear infection and just plain old one year old energy kept all 3 of us on our toes. We had them a week. For two days after they left we rested. Haylee and I made several trips to Primary Children's hospital while all this was going on. Every thing is back to normal and hopefully they will stay that way.
Our lives seems to stay busy. I wonder when it is going to slow down, but it never does. In two weeks we will be going to St. George once again for Cos's farewell. It is sad to see all of them grow up.
Tonya, Scott and their family are in Germany. They are there for 3 years. I know that they were far away before, but this seems like a lot further. I know we did it to our parents, but we are now on the other end and it is not so fun. Tonya will be back in a few months to welcome a grand baby. Yes Bre is having a baby. That will make 3 great grandchildren for us. It just keeps getting better and better.

I am still kickin!
Since I have not written for a long time, I am not going to worry about pictures, but just move on. We have been so busy. This past week we have enjoyed the grandkids. On Weds. we went to Paige's school to have her birthday lunch with her. AJ could not go so we had the fun of taking her place. The whole time we were there, (eating our pizza) she was trying to talk us into checking her out. She gave me several reasons. Of course I gave her several back. It was funny! I won!
We then took Amanda, Randy and the kids to Wick to get food. Destiny is almost crawling, her knees are there, but not movement. Marcus is not moving much. I think his body is catching up with his head. He is in Physical Theaphy. That is a good thing!
On Thur. we went and picked up Ayden. He wanted to come down on his birthday. So we went and got him, kept him for a few days. Of course he wanted to go to Thanksgiving Point. He loves going there, the gift shop is the best part. We took him to a 3D movie. I don't think he liked it, he kept taking his glasses off. He also kept trying to grab the things that were coming off the screen. One time I had to grab his shirt because he about went over the chair in front of him. It is always fun with him.
On Sunday we took him home and had dinner with Tori, Russ and the girls. When we arrived home we just flopped down enjoying the sound of nothing. We were really tired. Kids are for the young, I see that every time I have one of our grandkids.
Since I last wrote we had a visit with Tina. She came all alone. It was so nice to have her with no kids. We had a nice visit. We took her to Midway to see the Ice Castles that someone made. They are beautiful. No one can even understand how great they are until you see them. I was happy to see that Tina was really impressed since we talked it up so much. It was a great visit. I wish all of my children could visit every once in a while without their kids. We get to really spend time with them.
Family is a great thing to have. Everyday I am so thankful for the blessings of family. It is what it is about and it's great....
