Wishing...

It is June and if I had done it the way I always do then I would be at Kim's house right now. I am missing that cute little family! Mindy's family has been busy and so I haven't seen them for a while (I did see them for a few hours on my birthday but only eating dinner was involved - no playing). So, I decided to post some pictures of what I wish we could be doing together right now.


Here is Jeffrey on a tractor at the Wheeler Farm


Ella in her cool sunglasses


Avery, taking a break with Poppy


And Trey going for a horsey ride


Luckily, I have this little one to help me through the wait until I can be with the others!

Remembering on Memorial Day


On Monday Lynn, Stacey, Londyn and I went to the Heber Cemetary to take some flowers to Grandma and Grandpa Giles. We decided Londyn needed a picture here for her book of remembrance. Stacey will be sure to tell her about how special her great-grandparents were and what they meant to her.


We decided to wonder around the cemetary to see who else we might discover. We happened upon Ralph and Mina's grave. More good people that were great examples in our lives.


Then Lynn showed us the grave of Grandpa Giles' baby sister. I didn't know that he had a baby sister that died before her life really began.


This was a cool headstone of another Giles... we weren't sure if we were related.


And then we found this one that is Grandpa Giles' Uncle. The cemetary was so beautiful filled to the brim with colors of beautiful flowers. It was also filled with people who were enjoying the sunshine and talking about memories of their own. I am grateful to have the gospel in my life so I know that we will see our loved ones again. I am grateful to my Savior for making that possible.
