12/28/14 Life is changing

12/28/14

It was a great week here getting to talk to you!  That was so cool!  And so super fast.  I can't believe how fast it seemed.  Like you were there, then you were gone!  You looked really good!  Are you feeling better?  Did you need to go to the dr or did you get better on your own? Or are you still sick?


It's been a nice week here.  Kids are out of school.  Aj's home.


Dallas just finished out his last week of discount tire.  He starts working for Kenworth next week working on the big rigs as a diesel mechanic.  Seems kind of scary to me but he is super excited.  You'll have to remember him in your prayers to help him do well and learn and do all that he needs to.


Aj is starting a new phase in life too.  He's all graduated but grad school doesn't start until next fall and he doesn't know where he is going yet.  So he's kinda in limbo.  Looking for full time employment to keep him busy until he goes back to school.  He was offered a job this past week but decided against it.  It wasn't quite in the line of work he wanted and it was in SL area (or somewhere far away) and it wasn't worth the gas/time for the pay.  SO he keeps looking and interviewing.  
The girls have been chilling going to basketball with Dad and hanging with girl friends.  They are still in the easy stage of life!
Dad got tripped and turned his knee on Friday and is suffering from the ouch of his knee.  He thinks it will take care of itself given a couple of days but he is struggling getting up and down and around.


Dad and Katie and AJ went with Robert Hoppie and their boys to BYU basketball game last night.  They drove up and back in one day so super quick.  I think they had a blast!
Looking forward to another mellow week (I still work most of the week but it's nice having the girls not going here there and everywhere).

Hope you are doing well.  I'm proud of you! You are amazing.  Keep up the good works!  Love you!!! Mom

09/10/23 Hey, do you get to read letters on non-p day, p day?

First time trying a lime Pineapple was more pleasing than lime  Well...we went to Provo on Saturday and Sunday -- so your letter is a little later on Sunday than usual...but then I got to thinking...will you even get to see this before Thursday anyway?! So hopefully you're not sad that I'm late and all is well in CHILE.  It's a rainy sabbath here...which is weird cause we rarely get rain. But it is drizzly and rainy and our ride home was beautiful for 2 hours, raining for 1 1/2 hours, and then pretty good the rest of the way.  Let's see...what happened this week...Monday was Labor Day...so we had a day off work. Yeah!!!  We didn't have anywhere we needed to go and planned to have a quiet Monday but first, we went to this store called Sheridan's that is super close to our house. And we found some wonderful outdoor patio furniture. It took us 3 trips to get it all home and all afternoon to unpack and assemble it. So at 5:30, we were just finishing and kinda tired ...

11/09/24 The temple

St George Temple This morning I woke up early and continued to read "Your Endowment", a book Grandma Griffin gave me several years ago but that I never read cover to cover. It is of course, about the temple and the meaning behind the endowment and the other things we learn about in the temple. I'll be honest, a lot of it feels "over my head".  I am seeking to learn and know and understand more but I don't have a thorough understanding at this time.  Kathy and Steve Spring Yesterday I went to visit Kathy Spring. She worked at Washington City for many years and retired almost 3 years ago. We were good friends and she helped me in the court for quite awhile. Her husband died in January of 2020...looking back she is convinced it was covid but it was just before covid really became a thing. So it's not official. In about a years time she lost her Dad, her husband, her son and a grandson. Life was pretty rough when we were friends back then and I could see the...

10/15/23 Last Letter!

  Hey! Can you believe it?!  It's your last letter from home!!! This time next week you'll be one tired Hermana sitting in my kitchen with me!!!  What a week!  Monday was Columbus Day - so everybody had to work ('cept me!!!!) haha I stayed home and worked on projects. I took your car to the tire shop and had the tires inflated and then to Walmart and got an oil change then to the car wash and got the shebang inside and out and then brought it home and scrubbed it for a couple more hours. Wow, it was dirty and still isn't great! haha.  I also cleaned the pool and worked on the yard a bit and I don't even remember what else. I just remember I was super tired by day's end!  On Tuesday Emmalee came over and did Holly's hair and makeup. She looked really pretty. Afterward, we went to the Covington Home to take pictures. And the funny thing...it was decked out in Halloween decorations. NOOOOO!!!! So we found some areas and took some pictures and I think we got a ...
