04/12/15 Nick's wedding

Ann and Nick Squires outside St. George temple

4/12/15

Last week I got a rejection notice that you didn't get any of the pix I sent you.  So I tried again.  You should have gotten some pix today.

It's been a beautiful weather week here.  Sun is shining, it's warm but not too warm.  Very pleasant.  I love it!


I have been fighting a cold/cough all week so that kind of stinks.  Everybody else got the yuck in January.  I thought I'd survived the season!!!  ha.  I feel mostly better but the dang thing has hung on for way too long!


We had a camp meeting...the girls planned their menus and started working on cheers and songs and stuff.  The girls had soccer practice and games...Holly's team won, Katie's lost.  Katie's was close though and it was pretty entertaining.  Katie had a few good kicks in there.  


Saturday was Nick's wedding.  It was nice.  They had a pretty good size crowd in the temple.  Ann looked really beautiful.  Afterward Ben and Laura had a nice luncheon out in their backyard and then a reception after that.  It was all well planned out and the food of course was delicious. It was nice to see everybody.  I hope that things work out this time.  Ann seems like such a sweetie.


Tonight we are going to Gma and pas for BBQ ribs.  Everybody is supposed to bring sides.  Ben's birthday is coming this week so it is kind of our April birthday bash.


Ann and Nick Squires, wedding day
Today our ward is doing an Easter program.  Dad is supposed to read the narrator portion.  Holly is singing with the primary, I'll be playing piano with the primary, Katie and I are supposed to sing with the YM/YW and I'll supposed to give the closing prayer.  Busy!

So I guess that about sums up the week.  We have a busy couple months coming up with wedding showers, weddings, etc.  Zachary Ott and Kauri Melessa are getting married soon.  next week or two.  Also Amanda Turner and someone we don't know.  And of course Derrick Shelley.  It's like we have a wedding every week now!!!  


Can't wait to hear about your week!  Love you!!!!

06/14/25 Pre-Yellowstone

Last year for Christmas I purchased a vacation to Yellowstone for the kids and us. The dates for the Yellowstone cabin were June 16-June 20. We decided to break the trip up a little and drive up the weekend before and drive home the weekend after. Also, because Katie got married, and Dallas has limited time off, he was unable to take his family on the trip. We stayed at his house and got some twin time in before we continued north.  Aspen and John moved to Pennsylvania and are in Utah for the summer. On our way up north we stopped at Becky's house to see them and their sweet new baby.  Erik recently got a new job so he was also not able to join us on our trip. Holly became our little girl again and traveled with us.  Holly and Millie My dad's been in the care center so we stopped by to visit him. He's being well cared for. He is struggling to put sentences together. We came and went to church with him at the care center. He's been asking for a really good pizza. So we w...

07/10/2025 Dad's Passing

Dad's stay at the care center ended up being 35 days. He had a care giver that really connected with him named Michael. Michael cared for him when he was living at home and then came out a couple of times to the care center before he died. He really appreciated those visits and lit up when Michael came to visit and help care for him. I'm thankful that I was able to see him the two weekends about two weeks before he died. He was still able to smile and sit and eat at that time. I'm so glad that Ruth and Becky were able to take the time and spend quite a bit of time with him the last couple of weeks before he died. His condition continued to deteriorate and it was not easy to see him that way and spend so much time there. But my sisters and Suzanne did what they could to make him comfortable at the end.  He was found dead in his bed on the morning of July 10. Rest in peace, Dad. I love you!  

06/16/25-06/20/25 Yellowstone

We had a really great week on our Yellowstone trip. We stayed at a VRBO cabin in a remote cabin in Ashton, Idaho. It was just right for our group. We were able to go to Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Mesa Falls, the Yellowstone Playhouse, Lava Hot Springs Pools and Slides.  We drove lots, played games, did puzzles, roasted hot dogs, made s'mores, enjoyed picnic lunches, ice cream at the frost top, dinners together made by each lil family and so much more.  Loved it! (There are lots more pictures in our shared Yellowstone google album. Also, these pictures are not in order of happening. )
