Just back from Utah where I saw my newest grandchild (number 11). Izabella Liana is so beautiful and I enjoyed my time there immensely. I had fun playing with Jakeyboy, Zion and Ileina also. They are growing so fast and I feel I have missed out on much of their development.

It was also the first anniversary after my mother died. I went with father and several members of our family to visit the gravesite. Last year at this time Spring had definitely come - flowers blooming, green grass and a warmth in the air. This time it was way different as winter was still there with a chill in the air and no sight of green anywhere. We even had snow right before I left and the temperatures were in the 30s.

Now that I have graduated from college, I am trying to figure out what to do with the rest of my life. I have worked at BYUH for 14 years now. Isi can retire in five years. Should I try another job or carry on as before? It has been a fun ride so far. I have been blessed!!
