In Loving Memory

Aunt Colleen always wore a warm smile on her face. We were happy she passed away peacefully. It was truly a day to honor her.



Roger was one of her favorite brothers. He dedicated the grave in the Clinton Cemetery.










We released pink and purple (her favorite colors) balloons. One white balloon to represent that she was an angel flying back.
















Popcorn Anyone?

I love this time of year! The blossoms are beautiful, the flowers are colorful, the sun is shining!




In between the funeral and the family luncheon, we had to take pictures to enjoy the lovely day.

Easter



Todd and I had a wonderful time celebrating Easter with the family. We had a delicious dinner and two Easter Egg Hunts. I made sure Todd took lots of pictures to add to this blog. But, after my unfortnate mistake, I decided to just use last year's pictures. It shows the same thing---the men hiding the eggs and the kids running around the yard looking for eggs!




































Few more pictures

We sat on Gram's balcony to see the beautiful view she has.







When Mom and Dad were visiting, we watched Conference on Saturday at Grandma's place.


Grams taught Mom and I some of the old classic songs that she learned with her parents.



Uncle Gerry stopped by to drop off a beautiful plant to finish off Grams' home.

Off to Shop



I took the day off to enjoy seeing my dad and mom in town. We enjoyed a nice breakfast and then headed off to shop. We found a wonderful dark gray suit with a small blue pin stripe suit for my dad as well as two pairs of shoes, two pair of slacks, a belt, and a rain jacket. He is ready for England now! Afterwards, we picked up pies due to Gram's request, stopped at the bank due to Gordon's request, and headed to Chuck-a-Rama due to Gram's request. Grams must had been inspired to go eat there, because guess who we saw! Look in the background to see who it is!

Great West Tournament

Last week, UVU hosted the Great West Tournament for Men's and Women's basketball. I think they should have called it Todd's Great Tournament. I was able to go to at least one game a day, Wednesday through Saturday. I was so impressed. Todd coordinated when teams practiced, had shoot arounds, the refs, the scoreboard, shot clock, locker rooms, problems, pretty much everything that is the foundation of the tournament. He did a remarkable job with the stress of managing teams, games, time constraints, etc. Way to go Todd!

Drinks on St. Patties Day

I went to spend St. Patricks Day with Grandma. We went to KFC for dinner. We enjoyed the chicken, shakes, and root beer.



We had a good ole time with our drinks!
