this isn't facebook!I

I need to start blogging again! I find it so much faster to write a little blurp
on facebook and then
I made a facebook book for the last four 
years and it was really fast and easy.
But, this is more of a journel for me and I feel drawn to write.
In February I got to go to Salt Lake City, Utah to what they call "Rootstech". This
year I rented a mini-van and took four people with me, three of them teen-agers.
We had a great time (girls trip!) and I knew it was good when I heard the girls say
"we've got to go next year and bring more friends!"
I didn't make it to as many classes (too busy finding places to take naps!) but, I enjoyed all the  special speakers and concerts at night.
Got to hear Laura Bush, Donny Osmond and the CEO of Family Search.com. I figured my part was to get the girls there and make sure I brought
them home to their parents.
I loved our time on Temple Square and am always so joyful to feel the spirit
and see the temple.

I'm so thank-ful  and proud to be a member of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Later-Day Saints.

 I've always had a bird feeder, for years now. They bring alot of joy to me, nature so up close and personal. Now that we don't have any pets, we've loved having our bird feeders up again. We have this one tree out back and we have a little of everything for them. A little bird bath, three feeders and a suet feeder. There's usually ten to twenty birds in the tree at all times. Lots of beautiful finches, lots of yard birds, lots of black birds (who are quite noisy) red wing black birds and yellow headed black birds. We finally identified one that we couldn't figure out and its a Evening Grosbeak. Some come and we never see them again, just passing through. But, it's our little obsession right now, gives me something to do every morning. But, dang those birds are eating us out of house and home!

 chop, chop, chop were the sounds I woke up too yesterday. I've been hearing those sounds alot these last few weeks as my manly man has made hot sauce and salsa galore. But..............this morning it was different. I woke up to a beautiful bowl of tabbouleh...my favorite salad. The combination of the bulgar, parsley, cucumber and tomatoes just tickles my palet. My favorite part this time of the year are the pomegranate seeds, they add such color and flavor.(I really shouldn't be eating it but I chewed extra well ummm) Oooops a jar of grape juice just broke, manly man is canning....be right back. O.K. that's cleaned up and I'm heading out for a long overdue walk. It's a lovely day, blue skies and sun.

all is well

My daughter Becky should be home from the hospital soon, her surgery went well. Next the mourning for what was and will never be again, she had a lot of good cries last night. They weighed the breast and it was seven and a half pounds! I knew it was close to ten. Like she said jokingly she was looking forward to getting "alot off her chest". When I talked to her on the phone this morning I asked her how in the world did she ever get anything done with a two year old and 5mon. old! I did manage to get us all clean and fed by eleven. Is that good? And to think I raised six! Todays is Becky's Abbie's birthday, we hope to go to the movies this afternoon. I guess on the way home from the hospital they are picking up a new kitty for the children. They had promised them one when they moved in to their house, so how wonderful of them to realize what a good time it would be to bring one home. My children are so wise in so many things.Well........baby calls! Happy Day to you a
