Heres Fall

So now we get to enjoy Gods glory through color, I love the fall, I just wish I could be up in the mountains to enjoy it more often. Update on the people in my life. Elna has been sick from getting her flu shot so please keep her in prayer,Bill is getting ready to host our company party this week-end up at Christmas Medows in the Unintahs (pictures to follow after party) we have rented a condo so we can all stay warm grandma included, and we will plan on around 50 or more show up, so lets hope the leaves save me an arm full of color to bring back, I myself will plan on fishing and just breathing deeply. My boys are hard at work trying to see who can make the most noise and tackeling each other, I sure wish I had that energy, scouts and school and friends and remolding their room has been the main jobs this last month. I finally learned how to stain the floors and faux paint the girls ,boys and Elna's room. Amber and Krissy still share a room which can have it's challanges Amber picked a beautiful rose color with white trim, when it all comes together it should be nice the boys room is 5 diffrent colors(I'd sure hateto try to match it. But it looks cool, & Elna's room remindes me of peptobismol. I have toned it down but she needs some color in her life. I figure the restof the basement should be done by the year 2009.
Come by and see us when you get the chance and know we love and miss you and pray for goodness to each. Way to go Lisea Brenda is a good name not one you hear to much but your welcome to use it if you have a little girl. Sara is busy at step saver and her catalog that you can get a great discount on it features gifts for the home and garden along with many other wonderful gift ideas. Amber is busy with her singing song writing and youth and school mid terms look really good. Way to go kido. Krissy is trying to get the knack of reading and learning not to suck her thumb. She will succeed. And me I just try not to go insane and keep everyone fed. Well so much for up dates.We love you all. BrendasPages

Thought from the mom

I should have written this at the the start of my Blog journey, my whole hearted thanks go out to Heidi without whose help I would still be wondering how to set up. I am so very pleased to be a part of the families history blogs that are being created daily, I never was good at keeping a diary now I don't have to, thanks I love the idea of being able to down load such great stories. As most of you know by now our family has grown by 1 Bills mom Elna has come to live with us, she is 92 and still going strong. She loves to shop so if any one needs a shopping partner and would love a great talker feel free to ask Elna along, I am sure she would jump at the chance to be with someone other than me. All my children are doing well Abby is in Colorado with her husband Dennis, I am still not quite sure what it is they do for an income? But she seems to be growing in love and life I believe she is growing up. Sara is still attending school and is working at Step Saver. Amber is the proud owner of an ipod as of last night she was awarded it as incentive for a wonderful goal that she achieved. She has so many plans for life. Willie is my electronics whiz he can't quit talking about Jared what a great inspiration he was for Willie and Gage.(Thanks Jared you ROCK) Gage is my athletic he is into most physical challanges of life, he is great at swimming, and soccer and tormenting Willie and Krissy. Krissy is growing into a very loving and curious young women who has so many friends (I just wish we could see them) Her imagination is in full swing we never have a dull moment. Bill is doing so well with Step Saver we have seen Gods hand in the growth and development of our business. We could'nt be more pleased. And Bill is totally involved in all aspect of the business he can wrap his brain around so many ideas. He does amaze me. We as a family are involved in a musical that is being put on this week-end the 27th 28th &29th at 7: pm in the Bountiful regional center, if you have some time and would like a great date night idea come and join us it is very affordable(free). The name of it is Master Mender. Me I am running for city councile(maybe I should be running from it after the information I am learning) But you know me I love to talk to people, now if I can just be quite and listen to what they have to say(I do need prayer in that area) I might be the person for the job. Please call stop by or write we love you all buncher. Other up dates to follow.
